Thread: CsTilengine for version 2.9.5
Post: RE: CsTilengine for version 2.9.5
| I agree. One main reason for using direct 1:1 bindings is reuse of documentation and existing knowledge of the orifinal API. With this model there is a single API for all languages, that makes it stra... |

Thread: Global palettes bugs?
Post: RE: Global palettes bugs?
| Hi!
The foreground tileset palette is using 22 colors, so that's not a bug.
