@fmx: It's been feature-freezed months ago, but we still have several troubles left with Shadows (they work again, but still the old bug with tiny-shadows), transparency (behaving different on opengl vs directx) and some slowdown caused by the mouse on X11 (probably needs a custom flag to allow caching to avoid expensive X11 calls to get the mouse-position) which we want to fix. I don't know how long we need, I would recommend using trunk already.

Did not notice the forum being quiet :-)

Cheers for the info! 8)
I wasn't sure how much changes were going to be made from the latest SVN version to final release, seems like I shouldn't have anything to worry about

On the GLES port, does it automatically reload the textures when the context is paused?

I recall this was discussed somewhere here and not yet added, but that would be an essential feature for a 3d engine on android.

No, I don't think that we have that context loss handling even started. The DX driver has some context loss handling, and when I faced the events on ogl-es, I wanted to introduce the context loss handling also in that driver. But other things became more priority, so nothing available so far. Moreover, it might also be the problem of the device to some extent.

This library is amazing! I messed a bit with it, you can achieve very interesting effects:

When I will have some more free time I am going to mess with it a bit more, maybe produce a single game or demo :)

Do you think Resident Evil copies ideas from Fallout? I noticed a few things:

I think it is well known that Resident Evil copies from other movies/franchises. Let's be honest, everybody watches it only because of the female protagonist ;)

Also, what a coincidence, i watched RE: Afterlife just yesterday... :D

After this incident, I am stopping watching Resident Evil! Forever loyal to Fallout! lol


By the way, I am looking for a software for project management that works well with agile methods.
I need to have good organization of projects and tasks, have a good view for everything what is going on and how a progress looks.

Typical scenario will look like there we have meeting, discussing the project's tasks and then adding them to the project management software. Tasks can also appear without previously having it discussed, like a new minor feature added to a some part of the project.
The team should have a good view how the project is progressing. So, it should have things like Grantt charts, ability to prioritize tasks, estimate time, set current progress percent,etc.

So far, the best looking software I found is Pivotal Tracker: https://www.pivotaltracker.com/features
I want to check also other solution, so if you use or know such software, let me know :)

Thanks!

The SkyNest project offers a virtual machine with all agile things readily implemented, bugs discussion tickets charts etc etc, all integrated into a nice web UI.

Google found nothing under "SkyNest" or "SkyNest project management". Can you provide me a link to this project? Thanks

Thanks for the link!

We had to start work sooner, so I chose PivotalProject. The software is great and they allow you to test it for free for two months. Their pricing is cheap, so I think I made a good decision using their service :) I can recommend it :)
