I get a 404 error on the 180 link, but all the other ones work.
Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.

Perhaps there is a typographical error in the name.
This is the link that fails:

Read Sergei's post just above your first one.
He needs to fix things first.
I guess the link will work once he's done so. :)

Hi all,

I still have some problems: some misterious memory leak in new version. I hope it will be fixed shortly, probably in 1 day. Until it the link will not work.

Sorry for that.

Thanks Sergei,
I like your engine!
Can you make a compile with all needed dll ?
