<\/a>So I’m updating the core VectorStorm library with all my latest updates from MMORPG Tycoon 2, including some of the optimisations mentioned in my last post.<\/p>\n As part of that, I’ve finally fixed the renderer’s backwards-compatibility for rendering immediate-mode line segments, as is used extensively in the ‘StarShot’ testbed game (shown here).\u00a0 It’s been a very<\/em> long time since this testbed game rendered correctly!\u00a0 Once I finally tracked down the bug, I felt very silly for it — it was a tiny, trivial logic bug that should have been immediately obvious.\u00a0 But it’s been in the engine for ages<\/em>, and I’ve been constantly stumped by it, until now.<\/p>\n So far, I’ve finished updating the Mac side.\u00a0 Win32 is in progress.\u00a0 Once both sides are complete, I’ll update the public repository.\u00a0 I currently don’t have an iPhone developer license, so I probably won’t be spending the effort to keep that version up to date unless someone really feels strongly about it.<\/p>\n I’ve mentioned before that I’ve moved all of my own development over to git-based repositories, whereas previously I had been using subversion.<\/p>\n Currently, all of the code repositories hosted on this site are using subversion.\u00a0 I’ve been thinking a lot about moving my publicly available source repositories to a source hosting service such as GitHub<\/a> or Gitorious<\/a>.\u00a0 Alternately, I could keep the code here in the existing subversion repositories.<\/p>\n Haven’t really decided yet.\u00a0 Very open to suggestions, though.\u00a0 I’ve started playing with Gitorious a little, and will check out GitHub in more detail later this weekend.\u00a0 I’m kind of digging Gitorious’s focus on projects, rather than GitHub’s user-centric approach, which seems like it’d result in a lot of fragmenting;\u00a0 lots of people with individual changes that never get pushed back into a central repository where they can help others.<\/p>\n Anyone have preferences\/insights?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So I’m updating the core VectorStorm library with all my latest updates from MMORPG Tycoon 2, including some of the optimisations mentioned in my last post.
