[ODE] Using OpenGL for graphics..

[Vrej Melkonian]

I'm not sure what vishwas is talking about

"i have this doubt because none of the tutorial
given in that seem to
render at runtime"

You are obviously looking at the wrong place.
irrlicht is a 3D renderer, using GL or D3D.
Look at the screenshots and read the description of
what it is capable of.

http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net

And Ogre is another one
