openGl ES for iphone vector libraries When I was doing engine development for the iPhone, I used the Configurable Math Library: http://cmldev.net It works well, however I don't know whether it will be updated to make use of the iPhone/iPad vector/SIMD processors. If you want some rea...

Loading Mesh From Stream with Irrlicht.net I could store all the game's meshes and textures in a zip file which irrlicht can load from and store all the other data in the custom datafiles. However, I would like to stick to one not two resource locations. Any help appreciated!
