My friend and I decided to write a nice server/client pair for an MMORPG and decided to use D because, let's face it, D is the best. And since I've been out of the D scene for a month or two, now, I was hoping to get some help.

We need a list of possible D modules used for making a game. Stuff like OpenGL, OpenAL, etc. and links for downloading.

Check out Derelict at:

http://dsource.org/projects/derelict/

For OpenGL you can use the SDL import libraries here: http://www.digitalmars.com/d/index.html SDL has an interface for OpenGL. For networking you should be able to use winsock, but I'm not sure if that is included  in the Win32 module.

Urgh, how often do you have to post that? Please create a mozilla account with a (fake) e-mail adress which you have posted excess messages from, and delete these messages. I know it's not completely your fault, but just be aware that all messages get posted, it just takes a few minutes. But please nontheless clean up your shit yourself.

You can basically use everything. You can find nice OpenGL imports in diverse projects on DSource. (http://www.dsource.org/) One of these projects is Derelict, which has dynamic bindings. Deliria has a collection of static bindings, including OpenGL, GLUT and GLEE. There are SDL bindings here:

You can use any C library. If you would want to use, e.g. FMOD, for which there is no ready D import, you could just translate a few function prototypes and constants which you intend to use.
