Annoyed with locked older resources.

by Jason Gossiaux · in Torque Game Engine · 10/22/2007 (12:44 am) · 5 replies

I've been growing more and more annoyed with resources that I am denied access to because I have the latest Torque engine, and not an older copy... it seems illogical to block off older resources to new customers, right?

www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=resource&page=view&qid=10357 is one example where my 1.5.2 TGE license won't allow me access. I realize these resources are older, and would probably need some cleanup. But hey, I'm just trying to read as much as I can to learn at this point.

Does anyone else have thoughts regarding this? With the majority of resources being so outdated it is quite hard finding example code from which to learn...

Are you sure you were logged in? I'm able to access all the TGE resources with no problems.

I guess that's because of the upgrade one has to pay between 1.4.x and 1.5.x. It seems that isn't well encoded in the access database. 1.5.x ownership should grant you 1.4.x access too.
