Current Beta Version

Hey all!

Unless I'm mistaken, or completely idiotic, I am currently under the impression that the latest Beta version available to testers is beta 15, right?

When I launch Constructor, it says Beta 14 in the title bar. . .Am I missing something here?

About which?

If Constructor is in Beta 15, am I working with an old version?

But guys.. doesnt it seem like development on constructor has slowed down or stopped..

I keep thinking this Monday will be the one new release but sadly no.

To give them the benefit of the doubt, I'll suggest that things may get rolling again after the holidays have passed.

Hi there

ime using this forum for its appropriate topic: current beta version

ive seen around Beta 18 mentioned, is there a place we (windows users) can snatch and enjoy it? I'm stuck with 16 since i got out of the loop for a lill while. all I could find was a version for mac date 2nd of the current month.

There is going to be a new beta in the next day or two. It will be really important for you guys to test that beta as heavily as possible so that we have a clear view of what bugs need to be fixed for the release candidate that we will be working towards this week.

@Matt:

Will the new beta for this week be ported to Mac too? It was great to get a new one (b18) but since the selection stuff was broken, I've had to revert back to the last Mac beta. Would love to test your RC on Mac.

Thanks,

Ben

Yep. We found and fixed that bug on the Mac and we will have a RC for the Mac alongside the Windows version.

Sorry we didn't get a beta to you guys this week. We had a large outstanding bug related to the exporting that we didn't feel like we could ship to you guys. It is really close to being nailed down and once we get a tiny handful of issues wrapped up we will send out the RC.

Obviously if we are shipping an RC we are getting *very* close to finishing Constructor 1.0 =) I'm not going to tell you guys the ship date (it'll be a surprise!) but I will ask that you not let on to *anyone* outside of the beta how close we are.

Thanks!

Thanks for the updates on status Matt. "Mum" is the word. I can tell you at our last TIG (Torque Interest Group) meeting, a lot of newcomers immediately asked if any of us knew about the status of Constructor...Davey and Eric had to stick to the same point of "we don't know or can't say." Then people came up to me to ask if I knew, hoping to squeeze it out and I had to play dumb as well....I wanted so badly to tell them how I'm in the beta and how great/close it is getting. =) Ah well...look forward to the release and testing the next beta further.
