Torsion Help possibly includes bad instructions
by Zachary Buckholz · in Torsion · 02/18/2011 (11:07 pm) · 3 replies
I am very new to Torque, and Torsion, about three hours new.
The Torsion Help included off the menu bar has a topic "Creating a New Project" which I have followed to the part about setting the "Configurations". In this area is a screen shot showing the executable set to TGEA_DEBUG.exe. The text below the screen shot says "Enter Debug for the config Name and browse the Executable to find the Torque debug EXE for your project."
I have searched my folders where Torque and Torsion was installed and can not find any TGEA_DEBUG.exe.
What am I missing?

You will not have a debug build in the demo. this is created from compiling the souce in something like VS08. In Torsion you can just change the build used when running from debug to release. just to the left of the search window is where you can change it.

"TGEA_DEBUG.exe" could be "Torque3D.exe" or "FPS_Example.exe" or any other Torque executable.

It is not, however, required to debug scripts. You need to simply point to the desired Torque project excutable. In your case, I think is the demo, just use the avilable exe.
