I never got anywhere with Ogre learning, or DX for that matter.

I don't mind if it's converted to VS. It's really just thealx and I that are active devs just Now. Javelin was around, but haven't heard from him in a while, and I think he might have mentioned VS, or maybe someone else. Actually, GlynD recently got access.

Anyway, I think if converting to VS will make dev easier, then I'm OK with that. As long as the Ide remains free that we need to use.

There is a code diacussion thread linked below, and we also have a discord channel. I could create a code discussion group in it, if you want to use that?
