I have made new branches in svn for current stable version: 0.2.x and 0.2.x-d3d.

changelog:
- [Direct3D]now correct matrices are used
- [Direct3D]implemented auto generation of mipmaps for Direct3D9
- fixed file_GetName, now it will return file name even if it without extension
- added new parameter SizeXYBind to parameters of particle
- pengine2d_Draw now returns BlendMode and ColorMode which were set before
- now rtarget_Add will check GL_MAX_RENDERBUFFER_SIZE before creating frame buffer
- added USE_TRIANGULATION to zgl_config.cfg
- added few SND_FORMAT_* constants for modular structure of sound decoders without depend on Sound API
- added GAPI_CAN_AUTOGEN_MIPMAP for zgl_Get

I'm going to release stable version 0.2 this weekend But seems documentation(and also tools) will be available separately.

ZenGL 0.2 stable has been released So, now I will work on ZenParticles and documentation next week. Current two goals for roadmap of ZenGL 0.3.x are:
- OpenGL ES render
- multi-threaded resource loading

All links as always are here. And one more - Matthieu GIROUX has written some unit which implements compatibility with Andorra2D and DelphiX classes TSprite and TSpriteEngine... In few days I will check it and maybe release it like extra-unit for ZenGL

Projects page has been started There is only "Mystic Diary" trilogy, but soon I will add one more commercial game in another genre(action/2d shooter). Also I'm going to release ZenGL 0.2.1 with some changes and fixes(snd_LoadFromMemory, col2d_RectVsCircle and col2d_RectInCircle) and slight optimizations to Direct3D renderer.

- fixed snd_LoadFromMemory
- now closing the application will reset all states and so on
- LOG_FILE can be gotten only before execution zgl_Init

Just XCode 4.0 and ZenGL. Only Pascal, only hardcore!

AAwww, now you're just teasing us

Would you feel inclined to make a youtube tutorial? I have tried to get FPC working on my Macbook but it just became a too frustrating to do anything meaningful - e.g., using opengl or sdl - neither of which i have used in the past
