Version 0.0.5 of the AE Engine 3D Engine is out. This release adds a bunch of bug fixes, configuration enhancements, and support for hardware multitexturing. Check out the ChangeLog for a full list of changes and grab the latest sources from the download page at http://aeengine.sourceforge.net/download.php.

Also, in addition to the API docs please check out the apps/ directory for example code on how to use the AE API. There's no user manual yet, I'm working on it. The app(s) should give you a good starting place though.
