The new Murl Engine Build 1.00.4820Beta is available for download. This is a bug fix release.

Unfortunately there was a nasty bug in the last release which prevents a proper button detection if multiple cameras are used in an unordered way. The new release fixes this bug.

API Changes:

• Changed the Resource::IShader interface to allow for shaders of multiple types and languages to be present in a single resource. Existing methods take an additional shaderIndex parameter to query a specific shader.
• Removed the IEnums::ShaderLanguageVersion enumeration, which was merged into IEnums::ShaderLanguage.
• Changed the Graph::IShader interface to allow returning video shader objects based on type (fragment/vertex), if present. Changed the Graph::Shader class to allow referencing shader resources containing both vertex and fragment shaders, and Graph::ShaderProgram to allow for referencing such a shader node via the common shaderId attribute.

New Features:

• Added a fallback mechanism to Graph::IShader and Graph::IProgram, used in case a shader/program fails to compile or link.

Improvements:

• Addons::Lua::IAddon Added GetGlobal(), SetGlobal() methods to enable data exchange from C++ to Lua and vice versa.

Fixes:

• Renamed misspelled Android build variables: MURL_MODULE_PREBIULT_LIB_... to MURL_MODULE_PREBUILT_LIB_...
• Fixed incorrect handling of Graph::Button nodes with respect to multiple cameras/input projections
