TGE 1.5 + RTS Starter Kit?

by Chad Kilgore · in Torque Game Engine · 05/14/2007 (5:44 am) · 6 replies

Does anybody know if there are any intentions for the RTS Starter Kit to be available for TGE 1.5 owners? Why should I need to buy TGE 1.4.2 in order to but the kit if I already own TGE 1.5?

I would assume that if you own 1.4.2 or 1.5 you would be able to buy it.


Just be warned that it will take some work to get it working in 1.5.

Also I don't think that it is supported any more.

GarageGames will not allow you to buy the the RTS Kit unless you specifically own TGE 1.4.2. The item is removed from your shopping cart if you only own TGE 1.5.

I think the reason is because it's no longer supported by GG. The only real support for the RTS kit now comes from what few community members still use it.

Several of us have planned updates for it, but due to my current project I just haven't had the time to dig into the code and combine all the nice things the community has come up with. It's on my "to do" list, but I doubt I'll get to it anytime soon.

Is there any way to get 1.4.2 if you already have 1.5?

Shoot me an email at jamesw@garagegames.com and I'll get you all sorted out so you can make the purchase. Keep in mind as Anthony stated it will take some work to get the RTS starter kit working in TGE 1.5.
