The Vega/include dir has pfXXX.h files. I am not sure that Vega has lost
the layer.

I think the vgXXX functions make OpenGl class rather than performer calls.
The API is kept the same, so that the vega code is portable.

I have some Performer experience and I'd like to know what have been the
implications of porting Vega to WindowsNT??

Did Paradigm managed to replace Performer by an in-house tools?  Did
Vega lost a layer of functionality?

The Vega/include dir has pfXXX.h files. I am not sure that Vega has lost the layer.

My question is simply: "What have replaced Performer in Vega for
WindowsNT?"
 

I think the vgXXX functions make OpenGl class rather than performer calls. The API is kept the same, so that the vega code is portable.
