Just giving you guys a quick update on where we are on moving mac creator over to using ARC. We are down to 16 bugs and @stevej has started helping me fix bugs. That does mean that all my creator resources are working on ARC and all other creator development has been put on hold so we can fix these bugs as quickly as possible. As soon as i can get a build were it won't crash or mess-up you project i will release and RC. Thank you for your continued patience while we work towards these improvements.
Thanks for the update @BlackCloakGS and @stevej One question: I assume the switch to ARC is mainly for improving the performance in using the Creator on Mac, but did the two of you find / fix the memory leaks when the app is running on the device? I know you were looking into it and found some issues with the text behavior among other things.
I'm a big fan of the work you guys are doing in making the Creator run better, but it does not help me much as long as the games I am making with the Creator crashes out of memory on the device...
@viking right now we are focused on memory issues in creator. 0.14 will introduce any memory fixes for the engine which there are a few. The next 0.14 will also have all the ARC fixes. We will be putting out the ARC fixes in a 0.13 update and the next 0.14. After the ARC fixes are done we can look at any other memory issues with the engine.
Also if you would like to ask more in depth question about this feel free to bring them to the meetup tonight.
