Is there a problem with the Platformer kit with 3.1?

by Amrius · in Torque X 2D · 07/27/2009 (6:56 pm) · 6 replies

After i reinstalled and booted everything ive been racking my mind trying to find out what is wrong with my computer. After i was almost like F this i decided i would try just the regular starter game and it works fine. Is anyone else having any problems with the platformer kit with 3.1?

Heh, I posted on this in another thread. Yeah it doesn't seem to work with XNA/T2D versions 3.1.

But I think that's known. I got this related reply from Tom Ogburn in another thread about some difficulties I was having with Visual Studio:

"I couldn't get it to install either with VS 2008, XNA 3.1, TX 2d 3.0 Pro and TX 3 CC.
What I did do to get the files was use msiexec to extract all the files, then just copy the templates to the My Templates directory. I was then able to start Visual Studio and successfully create a platformer demo. It will also have the help documentation in the extracted files."

(I had some trouble getting that approach to work, but you could try it. I tell you what, between 4-6 pieces from Microsoft and 4-6 pieces from GarageGames it's a wonder any of it is compatible with any other.)

Yeah I'm having trouble with it tool. Seems to install fine, but whenever I try to create a demo or starter-kit, it tells me that an untrusted template was loaded and exits out.

sounds like a good reason for me to hold off on getting the platformer kit.


...and the waiting for something that just "works" as expected continues.

It seems to be more of a problem with a 3.1 version of the Torque X Reference than the platformer kit. I get the same problem with the 3.1 starter game.

But Im fine updating a 3.0 version one>.<
