AmiSSL requires special initialization for every thread that uses it, and this was missing on one thread. This has now been fixed, so a quick-fix version has […]

Good news! Tileson can now handle “collection of images” tile maps. At least, my version does. I’ve yet to share the changes back. Either way, it means we can get to work.

It’s clearly time to add some structure to the code, or it’ll turn into an unmanageable mess. That’s today’s task.Click here to watch the video on Odysee.Switching to C++I decided […]
