The new release of the framework is out. Among news you can notice GamePad support, Shaders support, TTF fonts… There are several projects on the SVN showing how to use the differents modules. Refer to the changelog for more informations.
I hate to have to login to share informations on internet. I love to just have quick access and write my message and that’s all. But that’s an ideal world, and internet is far from this. Early october, the bug report was victim of spamer bots. So I have to drop the anonymous access on this site and especially to the bug tracking system. Sorry guys but you’ll have to login next time…
