Title: SFML 2.2 - Next-Gen Multimedia Capability Today
Post by: binary1248 on December 11, 2014, 10:49:10 am
Here are a few reasons why SFML 2.2 will be the best release of SFML yet.
These comparisons are based on screenshots of in-game footage. One can clearly see the improvements that SFML 2.2 provides over SFML 2.1.

Side by side comparison (http://i.imgur.com/g159Bib.png)

If you have more examples of other games/software that takes advantage of SFML 2.2, feel free to post them here as well :D.

For those who still don't get it... This was supposed to parody certain other... API releases.

I dont understand the last part of the picture "support for advanced programming techniques"

what technique you talk about

you are not even doing the same thing in the 2 codes..

Second part is much faster than first, don't you see it???

Yeah because in the first he creates a list of renderwindow and deletes at the end .. in the second no. I don't see how this is related to SFML.

of course if you put your window in a list for no reason it will be longer.

I don't remember having to create a list of renderwindow in sfml 2.1 to make things work

The entire picture is a joke. Don't take the code in it seriously.

Nice, SFML has really improved!
Could you do an in-depth comparison between SFML 2.2 and SDL? Results must be shocking. :o

Tech and support like this is why there are NO GAMES AT ALL that shipped using SDL, ever.
This is parody of 'No game ever uses GL' comments seen under any next DX hype news.

Haha some French speaking people fell for it, despite the obvious fake "comparison" and the small text. It's funny and sad at the same time: http://jeux.developpez.com/actu/79102/La-SFML-2-2-arrive-Developpez-des-jeux-pour-Android-et-iOS-avec-la-nouvelle-version-de-la-bibliotheque-Cplusplus-de-jeux/

Yup, i'm the one who fell for it, and i'm actually very tired because I had to work hard today ;D

Nice one btw, maybe even a little bit too "serious" (We basically had the same thing with Microsoft and DirectX years ago).

this website is a joke. between Microsoft propaganda "news" and clickbait... (and not speaking about the "writing" of some articles)
