SceneManager is a stable alternative developed by myself to use as an alternative to the Director Class.

SceneManager V1.1 brings the following changes :

1) Improved code. (Some things I missed, various improvements)

2) Added "fromRight", "fromLeft', "fromTop", "fromBottom" transitions. Which are the equivalent to directors "overFromRight", "overFromLeft", "overFromTop" and "overFromBottom" effects.

3) Added "crossFade" effect, which is the equivalent to directors "crossfade" effect.

Please bear in mind this is beta code and may possibly contain issues. Testing confirmed no memory leaks as you can see from the included sample. If you have any issues with the effects or anything else, please let me know.

Currently supported effects are :

fade", "zoomOutIn", "zoomOutInFade", "zoomInOut", "zoomInOutFade", "flip", "flipFadeOutIn", "zoomOutInRotate", "zoomOutInFadeRotate", "zoomInOutRotate", "zoomInOutFadeRotate", "fromRight", "fromLeft", "fromTop", "fromBottom"

(You can view all of these from scene.lua)

Usage :

In main.lua
