OpenTK

Continuing the recent weekly tradition, 0.9.4 is out with two exciting new features: GL3.0 and Joystick support. Both are very much a work in progress, so please test and report any Gremlin that crosses your path. Known limitations: no joystick on ... [More] Mac OS X and no GL3.0 context on Linux or Mac OS X (you can thank Ati for this). These will be added in the following releases. Other, less interesting changes include: A new OpenGL Extension Viewer available as "Test: Extensions" in Examples.exe. A fix for the GL1.1 TextPrinter fallback. Metadata for OpenTK.Graphics.GL members (entry points, OpenGL version and extension for each GL method). Improved release packages with smaller footprint, a better QuickStart solution. Improved build system (you can build OpenTK now without using the commandline). No breaking changes in this release, either. With those things out of the way, OpenTK is roughly feature-complete and it's time to focus on the details: fill in the missing bits, make the API conform to the class library guidelines and tune performance. How would you prioritize the following tasks? Improve GL3.0 support. Improve joystick support (force-feedback). Improve mouse & keyboard support (make it independent of the GameWindow, allow mulitple keyboards / mice). Improve the GameWindow (implement missing functionality). Improve the public API (make sure everything is consistent with the guidelines). Improve documentation (API documentation and tutorials). Improve distribution (remove the need for OpenTK.dll.config, sign OpenTK.dll). Improve speed. Other (what?) Please share, to help drive OpenTK development. read more [Less]

This is an important release, as it is the first to include kanato's work for Mac OS X. It also includes several smaller improvement and bugfixes to Quaternions, the MouseDevice (now has a "Move" event) and the GameWindow. Please give this a thorough testing and report all issues you encounter!

OpenTK 0.9.2 comes with a new, improved TextPrinter implementation with subpixel rendering, more layout options and support for unlimited fonts. The code is still a little raw ...

Now that 0.9.2 is out, it is time to merge kanato's MacOS branch, BlueMonkMN's joystick and ALyman's mouse patches. Work will then continue on the GL3.0 bindings and the possible GameWindow rewrite. Please give this release a thorough testing and report any bugs to the bug tracker. Thanks! [Less]

Mono 2.2 contains several significant enhancements, including a better JIT, full AOT support and the first public release of Mono.Simd. Mono.Simd exposes SSE opcodes to managed code and can be used to accelerate CPU-intensive tasks, such as math routines. Complete changelog and downloads available from the Mono website.

As the world slowly leaves 2008 behind, let us all welcome the first morning of 2009. From the OpenTK team, wishes for a new year of happiness, achievement and peace!

Ok, so the old theme was an eyesore. Ugly. Pretty bad all around. But it's gone now, so hit F5 twice and enjoy the new looks! On to the real news now: a bug-tracker has (finally) been added to opentk. Please use the "Create Content" -> "issue ... [More] report" link to report bugs or request features (existing content will be migrated from the forum to the bug tracker). There is a little polishing left to do during the next few days (navigation, performance) and I'd love to hear suggestions and opinions. I'd also appreciate it if you can test the site on Konqueror, Safari, IE6 or Firefox 2, as I don't have access to these. Thanks! [Less]

* Yes, I will switch to GL3 (dropping GL2 completely) * Yes, I will take advantage of GL3 (but keep compatibility with GL2) * No, I have no plans to switch to GL3 at this time
