not in the forseeable future anyway... once/if a new buyer is found it will take time to forge old/new staff members to get up to speed with how everything works before a new release is out.

Hello

Nice, tanx for the info Yuri!

Christmas coming after all :-)

(I have liked the quality of Dobronravin work for all his products, but have to agree that one other strong aspect for GuideBot was NavMesh!)

Now, if only Torque and the people working/worked there would rise like the bird Fenix, that would make christmas even more perfect....

Best regards

sooo when will all the promises made be fulfilled? We keep hearing things are close but we are only a month away from a full year since this thread was made. I dont know about anyone else but i am starting to question your credibility.

I made version for T3D Beta 3 two or three weeks ago.
You can have it "as is" if you email me at logicking@logicking.com

But I still uncertain when will be official release, since I'm not sure how Guide Bot physics will work and I want to add Russian Soldier model as well.

I'm sorry that I messed with release for so many times but I just have not enough time and to do it.

Collapse of TorquePowered that was obvious to me long before official annoucement make changes to my plans, and I wasn't been able to go on as indie. Currently my full time job is a project and programmers lead in relatively big MMO game (it's a browser turn based tactics) and we're on the finish line before release. It last for 3 months already, but that what game development is. My hopes is that after launch I will have few more spare evenings a week and stamina to fullfil my promises.

One thing I wish to state clearly to the community is that I fully dedicated to Guide Bot. It's my "dream" project, so it will be finished as well as Guide Bot Topology. Guide Bot for Beta 3 will come soon. Guide Bot Topology is still long road to go.

Yuri, I am trying to complete a final build for a 1.1 b3 game code, and would rather use a final version of Guidebot. But if you believe it will be a long wait, then I will have to go with what you have released now and hope for the best.

Yuri, does the version you have now support navmesh?

Hello

Email sent.

Hopefully the topology comes around, the products have been easy to use so far and the code has worked well for me. The navmesh is an essential part for me also.

Best regards

to anyone thats using the pre release 0.91 with 1.1b3
Quote:You can have it "as is" if you email me at logicking@logicking.com
if you are using it with the GMK,
did you manage to merge the scripts, or adapt them in a way,
to use the 2 kits together with 1.1b3??

I cant seem to trace the issue, the game refuses to start,
I'm sure its the way I merged the scripts thats the problem.

anyone got them working together with 1.1b3??

I did merge it with my GMK and 1.1 b3 but I had errors recompiling.
Have not been able to make it work, and I redid it twice.
I am sure I am missing something but not sure what.
Of course I am not a master programmer, so its probably just me. :)
