- [Direct3D]fixed saving texture data when pass texture to rtarget_Add
- fixed some problems with scissor_* functions when using render targets
- fixed some range check errors in zgl_particles_2d unit
- fixed "memory leaks" in zgl_resources unit(problem with heaptrc)
- fixed range check errors zglChipmunk unit(replaced "array of" with correct alternative)

Nice work. This is the way: continuous development and frequent releases.

ZenGL 0.3.11

Changelog:
- fixed stack problem when loading some png-files with indexed color format with alpha
- fixed crash of snd_Free after few calls with active sound streams
- fixed pengine2d_AddEmitter, now it check Assigned( Emitter ) before adding emitter
- fixed wnd_SetSize, now it should change oglTargetW/oglTargetH for correct work of some features(e.g. scissor)
- no more official packages for C/C++ support
- no more official tar.bz2 packages

PS: Next release will be the last one for 0.3.x branch and I will stop development of ZenGL(at least using it current code base). Future of project now is absolutely uncertain. Thanks everybody for few years of fun

Serious? ZenGL is the best multiplatform engine for Object Pascal. We can try to gather more developers to the project if you like some help...

nah Andru is more like he do what hes interested in until he get bored, or im i wrong?

ZenGL is indeed really neat and powerful, on android i get far better framerates then with pure java code
but "every legend come to an end" or something like that

will be interesting when/if you continue ZenGL and also what your next project is about
anyway thanks for the great development of ZenGL, Andru

Answered here on official forum.

- [Windows]fixed choosing icon for title bar
- [Windows]fixed handling WM_MOUSEWHEEL

- fixed saving volume value for snd_PlayFile/snd_PlayMemory functions
- fixed incorrect determination of size of animated sprite in sprite engines(procedural and based on classes)
- fixed pengine2d_ClearAll
- added option USE_ZLIB_FULL
- removed touch_DblTap
- removed any WinCE support

Всем привет!
На данный момент я главный разработчик ZenGL, по не гласному соглашению с Andru.

Скачать можно на SourceForge, текущая версия 0.4.7. Там же находятся последние версии начиная с 0.4.2, до этого выкладывал версии на GitHub.

На данный момент не поддерживается iOS и не полностью поддерживается MacOS. Для MacOS не скомпилированы библиотеки под ARM-архитектуру, если у вас Mac M1 или M2 вы можете сами собрать для себя необходимые библиотеки. Для x86_64 архитектуры библиотеки собраны.

По сравнению с прошлыми версиями ZenGL были произведены достаточно не малые изменения:
1. восстановлена возможность сборки под Android используя Android Studio.
2. добавлена полная поддержка OpenGL/OpenGL ES.
3. добавлена библиотека Green Engine (GE), основанная и работающая используя ZenGL, это:
3.1. поле ввода.
3.2. работа с цветом.
3.3. работа с меню (тестовое состояние).
4. добавлены демки для тестирования полного OpenGL/OpenGL ES.

Многие изменения можно узнать на сайте FreePascal.

Сборка динамических библиотек, на данный момент, отключена из-за множества изменений (честно говоря я об этом изначально и не задумывался), восстановление данной возможности в процессе.

Ведётся документация, но в основном внутри самой библиотеки и в сопутствующих демках. Так же заполняю потихоньку документацию на вики.

Изменений было много. Список изменений в файле Update_ZenGL.txt, извиняюсь, но только на Русском языке.

Hi all!
At the moment I am the main developer of ZenGL, under an unspoken agreement with Andru.


You can download it from SourceForge, current version is 0.4.7. The latest versions starting from 0.4.2 are also there, before that I posted versions on GitHub.


Currently not supported by iOS and not fully supported by MacOS. For MacOS, libraries are not compiled for the ARM architecture; if you have a Mac M1 or M2, you can compile the necessary libraries for yourself. Libraries have been compiled for x86_64 architecture.


Compared to previous versions of ZenGL, quite a few changes have been made:
1. The ability to build for Android using Android Studio has been restored.
2. added full support for OpenGL/OpenGL ES.
3. Added the Green Engine (GE) library, based and working using ZenGL, this is:
3.1. entry field.
3.2. working with color.
3.3. working with the menu (test state).
4. added demos for testing full OpenGL/OpenGL ES.


Many changes can be found on the FreePascal website.


Building dynamic libraries is currently disabled due to many changes (to be honest, I didnÂ’t even think about it at first), restoring this feature is in the process.


Documentation is being maintained, but mainly within the library itself and in accompanying demos. IÂ’m also slowly filling out the documentation on the wiki.


There have been many changes. The list of changes is in the file Update_ZenGL.txt, sorry, but only in Russian.





Хотел создать новую тему... но Andru тут видимо уже не объявится.

I wanted to create a new topic... but Andru apparently won’t show up here anymore.

I have no idea what ZenGL is but it's nice to see some activity in the field of Pascal. Thanks for your efforts.

[Seenkao]

Не за что. Главное чтоб полезно было людям.

В соседнем топике основная часть расписана, была давно.

My pleasure. The main thing is that it is useful to people.


In the next topic the main part is described, it was a long time ago.
