Constructor TDN Access

by JohnT · in Constructor · 04/08/2007 (6:26 am) · 38 replies

Just wondering if anyone else is having difficulty accessing the Wiki documentation page at http://tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/Constructor ? I keep getting the message that this page is only available to registered owners of Constructor.

I'm having trouble with it too. I get a little "Welcome to Constructor" and just above it a line "This content is restricted to Constructor owners..." I was able to download Constructor with no problems there.

Add: Perhaps it's working and nothing is available yet? I checked out the Adventure Kit TDN and was able to see content and it also included the "restricted" line at the top.

Looks like probably 50% of the rest of TDN yet to be filled in by the community in whole..
love it!
So get busy guys and write the Help!!
From what little I've been able to look at so far, I'm very exited..

Hey Guys,
Getting a welcome screen at TDN with a notice at the top of restricted content? Unless I'm mistaken that's just an empty header at this time. Don't forget, this is Easter weekend and they did put it out early...
I suspect you will see at least a shell by tomorrow...

This page has some docs available that were helpful to me:

The 9th's my b-day. Nice present!

Just a heads up, and this is a completely shameless plug, keep an eye on my .plans because I've just entered a collaboration with another GG community member. Our work consists of the following:

  • Consolidating FAQs[li]Organizing GG resources into directory links based on related information[li]Updating and rewriting existing tutorials for hot topics (.dts exporting, lighting system)[li]Creating new tutorials, in both document and video form[li]Writing Constructor usage docs, covering modeling, exporting, and custom script plug-ins
A lot of the preliminary stuff will be located on the TDN at first, but we plan on making the same information available in .doc and resource form for non-SDK holders as well (with the exception of engine code guides).

I woke up and ran downstairs like it was christmas morning... Only to find out that I still can't access the Constructor TDN articles. T-T

Well hopefully by the end of the day. Or the end of the week wont matter to me. I will be patient. This looks great so far. Can't wait to try it. :)

Can't get into the TDN myself either. so how many of us are 1.4 owners like myself? perhaps we didn't get flagged?

I rushed back from a long weekend at the coast, got it installed and cant get access to the TDN pages either, but I'm glad I came back (no net connection down there except through my mobile phone),
anyways TDN Access would be cool and I'd also like to thank GG for Constructor.

This should now be accessible to all users. We are still in the process of fleshing out many sections of the documentation, but there are now basics in all nearly all areas.

There was some confusion about when the download was actually going up, many users who got the beta prior to Apr. 9 would have seen a blank page on the TDN site, as the docs had not yet been moved over to that area. If there are any further difficulties accessing the TDN documentation page, please do let us know!

Hi Alex, nice to get some response around the TDN access, however it seems that I can still not access it myself, TDN just tells me I need to own a copy of Constructor although I do
