n0ob question about OpenGL and D3D

[FrustratedUser]

Is there a way to select which type of rendering a game should use?
For example in RtCW?

Most games are fixed into a certain type of API and you can't choose what you use (eg all Quake 3 based games use OpenGL).

Other games have multiple renderers and you can choose different ones (eg Unreal/UT/UT2003 can run under OpenGL or Direct3D).

Aha, thank you.
