The Latest SDK?

by Eman · in Torque Game Engine · 11/30/2004 (8:18 am) · 5 replies

Hello there. So as you can probably guess at this point I am new. I gave up on torque and came back to it and after reading some new tutorials that were put together am making great progress.

So yesterday i downloaded the torque files from the download section and now my question is how do i know i have the latest files?

I dont know the first thing about CVS nor compiling. Is there a place I can get the latest or semi-latest version compiled? Or did i do that by downloading the torque yesterday off "my garage"

Thanks for the assistance. I am enjoying ripping up the torque script and reading tutorials managed to pull off quite a bit so far.

If you downloaded the engine via the link provided in 'My Garage' the list of products you own, then you have the latest version of the engine, which is Torque 1.3.0

Thanks Robert, is it updated semi-regularly? IE, how often should i go and download. Thanks again! Having a riot building my game, and have lots of modding experience, just new to the torque deal.

It'll be updated about once every 2 or 3 months, I believe... You can still access CVS, but GG was spending a ton of time supporting CVS issues rather than developing the engine.

If i download from CVS there is nothing special i need to do? IE I can download, and just grab the new tutorial base and work away on it? As I say i dont know nothing about compiling/etc. :)

Thanks!

No Eman, if you download from CVS, you have to re-compile the new files you download. I would not recommend you mess around with it if you don't feel comfortable with that kind of stuff already.

When there are new versions of the SDK installers available, you'll hear about it here on the site.
