We’re finally making the move to get 2.0 out the door as a final release!
Today, I tagged what was the current trunk as 1_7 and you can find that in the tags folder if you were using the trunk
The trunk has been updated to 2.0 beta 1 Great White and Ralph has posted a zip for download if you want it that way.

We’re working to get the documentation on the public api done, and at that point, we’ll release 2.0 as a final.
Also, we’ve changed my role (JohnG) to that of Project Manager. We felt we needed to have one person at least keeping an eye on the big picture for releases and milestones and after voting on it, it was decided. So, we’re going to be putting together milestones for dot releases of the engine and try to remain focused on these new milestones now that the engine is at a stable place under the hood.

new verison of papervision?

Nice. This helps a lot!

Get some. Is it going to stay up to date with Great White? I can’t imagine it being easy to keep it all running with some people choosing to continue developing in 9 and others choosing (for good reason) 10. Good luck with that, John!

Can you please explain Papervision’s SVN directory layout? I’m not sure which code is the latest that developers should be testing.
The layout seems backwards compared to SVN’s recommended best practices. New development is happening in branches (e.g. GreatWhite), not the trunk. The /branches directory does not contain any tagged release branches/snapshots. The trunk contains subdirectories with their own trunks.

Which branch will ultimately become the main one?
So should I start using the 1_7 branch? or just use the updated GW branch?
Or is the cs4 with fp10 branch in good enough shape to replace GW?

That good news:) What will happen with the branch GreatWhite ?
August 27, 2008 at 2:02 pm |
I’m going to remove it at the end of this week. I figure that’s enough time to get the word out to everyone that it’s now the trunk.

z-sorting / occlusion (;_;)
Great project so far, I was amazed with how quickly I set up my project, but quickly realised it was drawing all polygons in front of the camera regardless of occlusion…
I might delve into the renderer in more detail but I just don’t have spare time for this project, just have to knock back the poly count and materials
