Torque 1.3

by Corey Punches · in Torque Game Engine · 09/09/2004 (9:07 am) · 11 replies

Sorry if this information has been posted elsewhere, I just can't seem to find it.

Do we know what the release date for 1.3 is going to be? I'm curious because I just started a new project and I don't want to start heavily patching the 1.2 release (for lighting pack, etc) if 1.3 is going to be released soon. Does anyone know yet?

Check CVS - it's out now. RELEASE_1_3_0, I think. We're just waiting for the new demo build to go live before we announce it.

Looks like there has only been one change to HEAD:
"Updated copyright information"
www.garagegames.com/docs/torque.sdk/changelist/index.php?list=HEAD


So yes they are essentially the same at the moment

That change will probably be retagged for 1.3.0. We want 1.3.0 to have major bug fixes, and we want it to be easy to refer (thus the 1.3 name, not 1.3.5) so we may put a few changes into it post-release. That is hopefully the very very last one.

Do you mean that 1.3 doesnt have the fps and other game demos? I ask cause i was thinking of downloading but then I saw this and i want to be sure that I get all files that will be included so that I dont have to redownload again.

Eric, 1.3 has all of the files that come w/ Torque, including the fps and other demos.

There are a couple minor changes to make yet on HEAD before we move away from CVS, and as Ben says, we may just push them back into 1_3_0 as that's where they belong, but we just didn't catch them in time.

I haven't been keeping track of the forums for awhile. What do you mean by this comment?

Sources are going into subversion instead of CVS for 1.3+

Subversion is "the next logical step" in source code revision. It solves some of the shortcommings of CVS like renaming/moving directories (without having to delete them), atomic commits and easy branch/merge functionality

subversion.tigris.org if I'm not mistaken

Cool. I'll have to look into that I guess.

Thanks.
