Hello all, It has been a long time since I have had much time for DirectPython, but now most of the time consuming work is over and I can start to properly maintain this project again. The next version will be 0.9 and it will be the last beta version. Certain things have been fixed or changed during this long break, but most of them should not affect existing code. However, there are some things that will. Here is a current list: -d3dgui received a major update. Expect to change some of your code. There will be a backwards compatible version available too, but who wants to use that when there are new fancy things available? :) -d3d.Effect.update() was changed as previusly mentioned, it will only accept one dictionary argument. -Certain fixes might theoretically affect old code, but testing has not noticed anything major yet. There are also some new things: -Matrix class added (uses D3DXMATRIXA16 for those who are interested) -Basic support for render targets added. -Samples added: -rag dolls with PyODE -post processing -Biovision motion (.bvh) file viewer -Many samples were updated -Some tutorials. You can still say if you need any specific functionality, if it is generally useful it can be added. The next version will be release when it is ready, altough I have no idea when that is. A month (give or take a few days) from this day might be a good guess. -- Heikki Salo |
