FYI The PLIB team is planing to release 1.4.0 < stable > prior to or on the proposed June 22 FGFS release date based on feedback / bug reports with this release. I am hoping that all developers using the FGFS CVS files will test this and report any problems encountered no matter how minor so that we can fix them by June 22 !!

Announcing PLIB 1.3.2. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is the first PLIB release since September 2000 and although it's another odd-numbered (ie potentially unstable) release, it is in feature-freeze and will become PLIB 1.4.0 within the next week or so. If you are a PLIB application author, you should now port your PLIB code to 1.3.2 and check that it's all working correctly so that we can get any last-minute fixes into 1.4.0. The MAJOR non-reverse compatible change with 1.3.2 onwards is that the SSG loader functions now require a new argument to pass 'ssgLoaderOptions' rather than the old ad-hoc collection of function hooks. Reference counting has also been added to ssgState objects so if you load your textures and states once at the start of your code and delete the models as you progress from one level of the game to another (As TuxKart and TuxAQFH do for example) then you'll need to manually 'ref()' each state and texture as you create it in order to avoid them being deleted when the last model that refers to them is removed. There are *MANY* significant enhancements and bug fixes. You can grab PLIB 1.3.2 at http://plib.sf.net (notice that 'sourceforge' can now be abbreviated to 'sf' in URL's). ----------------------------- Steve Baker ------------------------------- HomeMail : <sjb...@ai...> WorkMail: <sj...@li...> HomePage : http://web2.airmail.net/sjbaker1 Projects : http://plib.sf.net http://tuxaqfh.sf.net http://tuxkart.sf.net http://agtoys.sf.net http://prettypoly.sf.net http://freeglut.sf.net http://toobular.sf.net _______________________________________________ plib-devel mailing list pli...@li... http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/plib-devel |
