Yes, the tool chain is a huge problem for A8.
I love the engine itself, it can do everything I need just fine, and is flexible enough to extend it in many ways. All that is missing is the capability to compile Lite-C to DLL so I can switch to C++ and still use my Lite-C templates as DLL (doing the C++ part as DLL painfully limits the debug possibilities).

But the tool chain is really slowing me down, and there are no real news or pictures or anything more than a percent number concerning the new WED. It's disappointing.
