Any news on the architectural change?
Hey Guys
Just a quick question well two actually, I have been working really hard on a GS project and is nearly done, but the load times are killing me. I have use of course every good programming practice and the load time between scenes is about 6-7 seconds. I read before that you were almost done (about 3 months ago) with a major architectural change that will make GS perform better than any lua based SDK.
I know its impossible to give us a timeline on when this change is coming, but maybe you can fill us in on what the team that is working on this is doing, on what stage they are working, if the sous already have an early beta or something that can let us know how is this major change coming.
The second question is do you guys know if only the projects that are started after the new architecture is release will operate with good performance or projects that we build before the change are also going to perform better?
Thanks a lot and I hope we get a response on this topic as I´m sure that a LOT of members of the community have this concern.
Many Thanks to all of you

As far as old projects working just the same once it happens - I would be ecstatic if the crossover happened flawlessly, and there were no problems, but I fully expect there to be some fixing on old projects.
I just don't see a major overhaul like that happening without something being affected in old projects that were done with a Lua based overlaid framework. It would be awesome if it did, but I'm not going to be mad if it isn't. I fully expect to have to go back and fix things. And that's not a shot at GameSalad, that's just the reality of a major overhaul to any software that's changing it's framework. Again, don't quote me on that, it's just my opinion. I could be, and hope I am totally wrong in that assumption.
