Thanks all for the nice comments ! We also have planned a new "change to apply" section as requested sometimes ago. Here is the one for 5.30:
[Mandatory]: It won't compile anymore, so change is needed
[Deprecated]: It will still compile and works but will raise a deprecated warning.
If something isn't clear for you, or if you have a better idea, don't hesitate to tell.
Code: Select all
Update roadmap from 5.2x to 5.30
* [Mandatory] CreateXMLNode():
add the new name parameter, and remove any extra SetXMLNodeName() if any (no more needed)
* [Mandatory] AddBillboard(Index, #BillboardGroup, x, y, z)
Change to: Index = AddBillboard(#BillboardGroup, x, y, z)
* [Deprecated] MaterialDepthWrite(#Material, State):
Change to SetMaterialAttribute(#Material, #PB_Material_DepthWrite, State)
* [Deprecated] CountRenderedTriangles()
Change to Engine3DStatus(#PB_Engine3D_NbRenderedTriangles)
* [Deprecated] Engine3DFrameRate(Type):
Change to Engine3DStatus(Type)
* [Deprecated] #PB_LinkedList
Change to: #PB_List

Cool Features
Thank you Fred & Team.
Only thing I have to say: Good, now we can free water and get the heigth of water (Good for boats, I will make an program ^^), but we can“t set the Dimension of a waterplane and its floatingdirection, Amplitude,... .

Hydrax is built as an "unlimited" waterplane by design, that's why it can't be sized.

Thank you for the new beta! I really like the JSON lib
@Fred: Those "change to apply" infos... Will they also be visible inside the IDE by any chance?
