Upgrade Path to TGB Pro
by Jonathan Toolan · in Torque Game Builder · 01/14/2009 (4:31 am) · 5 replies
I bought Torque Game Builder with the understanding that if I wanted to, I'd be able to upgrade to the Pro version (i.e. get the source) at a later date. With the new site, I can no longer find that option anywhere. Is this still an option?

No edit button - this link should work if you copy and paste it :)http://img396.imageshack.us/my.php?image=notanindiesi8.jpg

When I entered the new site without logging in, it showed a price of $250 for TGB with source, $100 without. After logging in, the price for Pro is $150. I believe that is your upgrade path now, it just knows you have Indie already and adjusts the price you see.
Of course, I could be wrong.

I think that they actually lowered the price for upgrading to Pro to $150--Wasn't it $200 a while back to upgrade?

Thanks Heath, you're right. Looks like the pricing depends on what products you already own and if you're logged in or not.

It should automatically give you the upgrade price, we have definitely realized that it isn't obvious that's what it's doing.

If you click the link "not an indie?" between the "Download Demo" and "Buy now" button, the pricing is different though and (AFAIK) shows the "old prices" (before the site was updated).

I wonder myself if I bought the Pro update 8 days ago for $150 and could get it for $50 today.
This is very confusing.
