OpenGL or DirectX in Dolphin?

Is there anything built into Dolphin for these or any extension
"packages" (sorry, fairly new to Smalltalk and trying to learn the
correct jargon) for it? I know MT has some DirectX functionality
built-in, but Dolphin appears to be light years ahead in overall
functionality, etc.

You have ST3D for Dolphin, which has a nice openGL interface.

But i do not know anything about ST3D for Dolphin X6, i have used with
Dolphin 5.

ST3D does not load into Dolphin D6. As far as I saw because of the
changed View resource from D5 to D6.

To access DirectX you can use the ActiveX Component Wizard by using the
Visual Basic 8 or 7 Type library. But there is no Wrapper for DirectX 9
or .net.
