Shoals development from a Tiles perspective As you might or might not know, the overall Shoals development happened with the speed of a glacier. First started during the development of 0.3.x, the beginning of the Shoals implementation, then codenamed Islands, roughly coincided with Enne Walker’s integration of tiles into Stone Soup. To me, it thus makes [...]Source: The Chronicles Of Doryen
Antagonist’s GLSL renderer has been succesfully integrated in libtcod 1.5.1 svn trunk. While I consider it currently highly unoptimized (in both the libtcod “client” part and the critical fragment shader), it already skyrocketed the true color sample to the unknown and mysterious world of 4 digits frames per seconds…. It’s only available if you have an OpenGL 1.4 compatible video card (it requires the GL_ARB_shader_objects OpenGL extension). If something goes wrong with openGL, libtcod will hopefully fall back to the default SDL renderer. You can also completely disable the OpenGL renderer by compiling libtcod with -DNO_OPENGL make option, or by uncommenting this option in libtcod.h.
Paul Sexton’s common lisp wrapper cl-tcod should be compatible with libtcod 1.5.0 since there are no API changes between 1.5.0rc1 and 1.5.0. Get it there.
Other news on the wrapping side of the force are an ongoing community brainstorming leaded by Jotaf about refactoring the python wrapper. There’s a poll here. Be sure to check it if you’re using the python wrapper for libtcod. Altefcat also started to work on a epydoc standalone documentation for python that will hopefully be available in the 1.5.1 release.
Last but not least, Mingos started the documentation reskinning sisyphal work. The new look will be more user friendly and more “library documentation”-esque
