[APE development] SMP question
did anyone ever try to make an APE that uses AVS's "Experimental multiprocessor support"?
i tried and did everything as described in avs_ape.h
the new RetrFunc gets called fine, but AVS still calls the render() method instead of smp_begin()/smp_render()/smp_finish()

i already looked at avs's source for help... it seems to call everything fine and the way i expect it, but it still does not work

any insight? :)

VC7 works fine too
there is just one problem with that: vc6 cant open vc7 projects, so you might wanna keep the old vc6 project file for compatibility

btw, off-topic...

debugging APEs works fine with vc7, just one thing:
you cant debug vc6 APEs with vc7 and vice versa
