Never heard anything. I'm happy to add that libg3d thing I mentioned before to Evas_3D. http://automagically.de/g3dviewer/ and https://github.com/onefang/meta-impy/tree/mesh/linden/indra/mimesh/libg3d-0.0.8 in case you forgot. Hmm, does EFL have "treat an archive as a file system" type stuff in it? That would be needed to port libg3d to EFL. Either way, I want to add heightmap support soonish. > - Integrate with Edje > - Add a bigger demo to Elementary I've had my Elementary example in devs/onefang/evas-3d-elm for some time now, should I move it into Elementary as the official example (after the 1.11 release)?
