[vworld-tech] Graphics engine question

[Alex Chacha]

I am looking for a 3D graphics engines library, written in C++ for direct X 
that will serve as a front end to my virtual world.  I have been pushing off 
the grpahics engine as much as I could, but time will come when I have to 
take the plunge.  My specialty is in writing quest engines and magic systems 
and I have not had as much exposure to 3D development other than college 
project long time ago (I can write an MFC app that uses a directX surface, 
but why write an engine from scratch when there may be a one already 
written).

Seems getting an evaluation of one of the bigger commercial engines (like 
gamebryo) requires a funded company, but to get funded VCs was to see a 
demo... the old chicken and the egg problem.

Any recommendations?
