Do I have the right software to make XBLCG?

by Jason Walters · in Torque X Platformer Kit · 12/02/2008 (9:07 pm) · 2 replies

Please help me figure out if I have all the correct software.

Per this post:
http://www.garagegames.com/blogs/54612/15179

I'll need:
Getting started with Torque X is very inexpensive. The engine binary is free, and the Torque X Builder tool is only $100. The source code included "Torque X Pro" is $150, and the optional "Torque X Platformer Starter Kit" is $29.95. If you want everything, the whole kit and kaboodle is $279.95, however, there's a whole lot you can do with just the Torque X Binary and Torque X Builder for $100.

What I downloaded:
Torque X Builder - Creators Club
Torque X Platformer Starter Kit

My questions are:
1. Is "Torque X Builder - Creators Club" the same as "Torque X Builder"?
2. What is Torque X Binary and how do I download it?
3. Do I need to purchase any other software?

Thank you!

You have all you need, but you do not have the TorqueX Source code. So as long as you don't want to modify the engine (Torque X), you are good to go.

1. Yes. The only difference is the licensing keys.
2. Download the TX 2.0 "demo" and you will have the TX binary. You will need it to develop with TX.
3. No.
