Once again I’m going to cherry-pick a few items from our ever-active community to highlight here on the news page, and this time I’m concentrating on the tools landscape.

This is just a selection of the tools that are coming out of the community, be sure to browse the forums to keep an eye on the full range of activity out there. Also remember to check the Addons Forum for discussions about the many add-on libraries you can use with Ogre.
