CVS Access.... is it gone?

by Robert Pierce · in Torque Game Engine · 07/30/2007 (9:01 pm) · 4 replies

I've been away from Torque for a..... err, very long time, and tonight I was trying to access CVS... since oh so long ago we could do so, although I was unable to (unable to find host).

So, my question is, are we no longer able to access the TGE source from CVS anymore, just posted release builds?

Yep, no more CVS - now GG are using packaged installers available from your downloads page.

Darn.... well, it's not like the prepackaged installers don't work. :P

I just kind of enjoyed using CVS, even if there was no reason to.

Arguably, CVS is much nicer, since you're able to get the latest fixes/additions as well :/ Apparently there were some issues though (or so I've read on the forums here) that made it necessary to stop.

It was never the latest fixes / additions. As there was always a internal SVN running that most of the GG team used. Every now and then they would toss us a bone and update the CVS with some of the bigger bug fixs but even then it was never the latest additions and fixs and such.
