   * Proton internally shares all Surfaces/SurfaceAnims that use the same filename, including grid settings if it is broken up into an anim.  This could be a problem if you want to use a surface with multiple grid settings or want to dynamically modify a surface for only one instance - [[http://www.rtsoft.com/forums/showthread.php?4106-SetupAnimEntity-for-texture-mapping|a work around is explained here]]. (If you aren't using SurfaceOverlay components or the ResourceManager() to get your surfaces, you won't be affected)   * Proton internally shares all Surfaces/SurfaceAnims that use the same filename, including grid settings if it is broken up into an anim.  This could be a problem if you want to use a surface with multiple grid settings or want to dynamically modify a surface for only one instance - [[http://www.rtsoft.com/forums/showthread.php?4106-SetupAnimEntity-for-texture-mapping|a work around is explained here]].

 +  * If RT_DISABLE_RETINA_ON_IPAD is defined project wide, iPad3 will run at iPad1 res instead of retina (useful if you don't want to update your GUI to the big screen or just want an FPS boost) 
 +   
 +  If you get a "dyld: Symbol not found: __NSConcreteGlobalBlock" error when running on iOS 3.X, you can fix this by adding -weak_library /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib to the extra linker command line in the project settings.  (Not a Proton issue, but here just in case you need it)
