Openvg

Hi

I'm just wondering if anyone's ever tried to write an openvg backend for T2D?

If not and noone plans too, has anyone ever covered anything relating to how/where in the engine code, the 2D calls get mapped to opengl and/or DX?

Apologies if I'm being too lazy ... 8-)

There's rendering code all over the place. There isn't a single, certain pinch point. Each t2d object has a render method and that where the work gets done. Converting T2D to use a different rendering system is a non-trivial undertaking.

I can't reveal specific information, but this type of undertaking is best delayed for roughly a month or two...

Just to clarify: I'm not saying that this specific implementation is planned or anything, but simply that this is one very specific area of development that would benefit from patience!

Just to clarify: I was kidding as well. :)
