Possible resume in TGE download?

by Mike G.M. · in Torque Game Engine · 01/28/2004 (7:44 pm) · 7 replies

Could somebody register and became a torque licensee or owner and start downloading the SDK at tomorrow with a download application like Dap, Flashget or etc, then resume by the next day and continue the remaining after, because he may get disconnected due to his low speed in connection?.

You're going to be using some version of CVS to download the SDK, not a download manager like DAP.

CVS has limited ability to resume an update (download) if you kill it in the middle.

You can redownload or update the Torque source code via CVS any time you want to. It sounds like you are worried that you will lose your $100 investment if the download stops for some reason. That is not the case.

By purchasing a license you have access to Torque's CVS repository pretty much forever.
