32:16elxenoaizd Related to the question about embedded resources vs external ones: I had an idea of using a meta program to load a model during a preprocessor step and spits out the code that assigns the vertices values directly to an array, i.e. void LoadModel(v3 *Vertices) { Vertices[0].x = ...; Vertices[0].y = ....; } etc. Do you think that's useful in any way?

33:44cvaucher Might be jumping the gun since we haven't gotten to shaders, but I'm having trouble with them in my renderer. Am I supposed to save the attributes and shader programs across draw calls, or reinitialize each time? Seems like you went to a lot of trouble to remove the transient arena from the OpenGL renderer so things can't be pushed from there

38:15cubercaleb Is it practical to roll your own C runtime? From what I have gathered there seems to be a lot of problems with that sort of thing. Of course M$ has the audacity to ship incompatible versions of the CRT on different versions of Windows. Any workarounds for this?
