@T Squared
It is part of the TorqueX engine, which was a ground-up rewrite in C# for XNA.

I noticed the C# 2008 express is out does it work with it or do I have to use 2005.

@Morrie:

You'll have to use 2005 Express right now.

2008 won't be added I'm sure until GSE will work with it (2.0 just works with Visual Studio 2005)

Are the keys still valid if you have TXB? I am getting InvalidKey when I try to register after opening up TXB.
