T3D Toolbox - Define IDE?

by Steve Way · in Torque 3D Professional · 05/26/2009 (2:51 pm) · 8 replies

The default IDE for the T3D toolbox is Torsion. With all of the other viable alternatives, is there a way to easily customize the Toolbox button to launch a different editor such as Notepad, jEdit, Codeweaver, VisualStudio, etc.? If not, this would but a helpful feature to consider for the final release.

You can add shortcuts to launch any program you want in the Toolbox. Just click the "Edit Toolbar" text at the bottom right and point to whatever program you want to launch.

I agree. I know this is part of what the Quick Links bar is supposed to be for, but... not everyone uses Torsion, and it is wasting space in the Toolbox if it's link is not being used, or can't be configured to point to something else.

We definitely can include an option to remove it as well as customize it... we obviously enjoy pimping Torsion since it's a great product :)

Hehe, Torsion is great and I don't want to take anything away from it but choice is nice too... even if everybody defaults to Torsion. ;)

for the price of T3D why not include Torsion?

Hehe, I was thinking that too, but I don't think Torsion was written by GG.

For the price of T3D, we're getting a higher quality engine... just a thought.

We do not include a free copy of Torsion because it is not up to us. Sick Head owns the rights.
