I can't post on there without registering so I'll just put it here - I added Yagl to the following wikipedia article a couple of days ago.

been away a little while, but it seems there is still interest. Keep posting there and maybe we can get something organized =)

I still use YAGL in C++ (though I use the C version), and find it great for 2D Graphics
Please could someone resurrect this. I would but I'm still a complete n00b when it comes to OpenGL.

What is there to do? It's a perfectly fine game library as it is. Request something specific and maybe there'll be some action.

I was thinking that as well, DrV...YAGL doesn't really need much more to be added to it, it's pretty complete as-is. About all it could use is some utilitarian stuff, like coldet routines.
EDIT: W00t, exactly 1000 posts! :rotfl:

Yeah. Also someone needs to compile and upload the C++ version for those too lazy to do it themselves (read: me)

Well first off anything can be improved on and added on to. As far as specific requests I can't think of any off the top of my head, but I know I had some, thats why I started this thread, but that was a while ago. Many of the convinience issues I have found work-arounds for.
The way I think of it as, if nothing else, is a good lib should have ultimate power with minimal code complication. (or something like that ^^)

One of the few pointless things I'd love would be loading and playing .gif's.
So a commands like:
YaglGfxDevice_loadGif() to load a GIF file.
YaglGfxDevice_setFrame() to change to a different frame
YaglGfxDevice_advanceFrame() to move forward a frame
This would be really useful for making title-screens, having sprites move etc.

I can only begin to imagine how slow that might be...
