New TLK Migration
by Thomas Shaw · in Torque Game Engine · 02/09/2006 (4:18 pm) · 5 replies
Is there a migration guide or list of changed files that deals with the new TLK that just got released? I am looking to port the updates into our current build in 1.3.5.
How much, from a code standpoint, has changed with this release, and how difficult is it going to be to implement?
Thanks

Well, the only ".pdf" file I see in the zip file is modelersGuide.pdf in the docs. Is this guide elsewhere? We are talking about 1.3.5 by the way, not 1.4.0.

Not sure I'm following; are you trying to get the latest TLK changes from 1.4 into 1.3.5?
The differences between TGE 1.3 and TGE 1.4 were significant enough that we couldn't easily keep two working branches of TLK, so I would say that the best option might be to take the plunge to 1.4, as I'm sure there a some bug fixes and features in TGE 1.4 your project may need down the road anyway.

You had said "Hi Marcel, yup TLK 1.4 is available for download (TLK 1.3.5 is also available for projects using TGE 1.3)!"

I just took that to mean that updates were released for both 1.3.5 and 1.4 and that the latest version available for download was the updated version.
My original question was just asking how much the 1.3.5 build had changed with the latest update (because I assumed it had been updated).
So just to confirm this update only applies to 1.4 right?

The features could be back ported from 1.4 to 1.3.5, but again the time it takes may be similar to just upgrading to 1.4.
Sorry for the confusion.

Ahh, that makes sense. Yes the only update was to TLK 1.4, but the older TLK 1.3.5 is still available for new users still running TGE 1.3.The features could be back ported from 1.4 to 1.3.5, but again the time it takes may be similar to just upgrading to 1.4.
Sorry for the confusion.
