Stryker Content Pack

by Andy S. · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 04/05/2008 (6:41 am) · 3 replies

Just a little question...does the stryker content pack work with 1.7? In general, how is the compatibility to the content packs? Specifically the stryker, does it run out of the box as advertised?

Is there somewhere a list where i can see which Content packs work out of the box with TGEA? I am not sure if I should buy the Stryker, Tank pack and the warsparrow. But all of them state on the product pages they were tested to work with TGE 1.3, 1.4 or 1.5.2, or TGEA 1.0X.
Say they would not work out of the box, would it be easy to fix? Does anyone have experience with them in TGEA 1.7?

Hi, Andy. At a quick glance it looks like our pack will work right out of the box with 1.7, BUT the installation documentation would be off because of directory structure and naming in TGEA 1.7. It wouldn't take much to get it into 1.7 if you are reasonably familiar with TGEA engine code and scripts.

We do plan on updating the Stryker pack for 1.7, but have a lot on our plate at the moment, and didnt want to spend dev time working with a beta release of TGEA as test bed. I will look for the ever hard to find time to wedge in a 1.7 install with the pack at the earliest opportunity and get it to GG for store download.

Thanks for the answer, this is good news. If I would buy now, do i get the upgrade to 1.7 for free?
