Wire3D v1.0.2 (Wii)

[dlevere]

Thanks to the work of Wii developer antibyte, today we have version 1.0.2 of Wire3D. Wire stands for (Wii Independent 3D Rendering Engine) and is a developer tool to use the framework/library/3D engine designed to develop games/applications for the Nintendo Wii. The full changelog is listed below.

Wire
draw call batching of static and dynamic geometry
text rendering
skybox node

VertexBuffer uses 32 bit color (instead of 4 floats) now, so no more conversion at Bind() time. Note: Although interface changed, there are no changes for the user due to implicit conversion operators to/from ColorRGB(A).

IndexBuffer only uses 16 bit indices, as Wii does not support 32 bit indices anyway. Note: Interface only changed on IndexBuffer::GetData(), if you are accessing index buffers via operator there are no changes necessary.

(PC) fixed renderer statistics bug when ResetDevice()/DestroyAll() was issued.
(PC) fixed NVIDIA PerfHUD getting stalled when pressing a key.
(Wii) fixed anisotropic texture filtering
