Well, it's been over a month since the last post. Progress has been a little slow lately, mainly because of some annoying issues with the shadowmaps I started on. However the number of issues is slowly decreasing and the shadowing results look more and more accurate, so I've good faith. Besides the shadowmaps I've started to work on an improved video interface, which will be based on the Tao Mediaplayer example I made for the Tao Framework. Also the in-game GUI has received a little upgrade, increasing skinning flexibility and improving the text rendering quality. Also experimental support for Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is implemented. On the website you might have noticed that I made some minor tweaks and improvements, including really cool syntax highlighting on the forum and blog pages!
