Migration guide

  • The renoir::Texture2D structure is changed so that the renoir::Texture2D::WillNeverOverwrite field is removed. Textures that will be changed are marked with renoir::IMP_Dynamic in their renoir::Texture2D::Props field.
  • A new texture flag for the renoir::Texture2D::Props field is introduced – renoir::IMP_InvertAlpha. Textures with this flags are considered with inverted alpha and Renoir will handle them correctly if they need to be drawn. The new image property can also be used for the renoir::ImageInfo::Props field.
