Finding Torque version number?

by SM3 · in Torque Game Engine · 01/10/2005 (8:28 pm) · 2 replies

Hello,

Is there a way to find out the version number of a Torque binary either via command line switch or maybe console command?

There's also a file at SDK/Engine/Games/Version.cc with a version number of 1200. What is this for? I thought I was for the SDK version but I guess not because its 1.3.

Not currently. You could easily add it.

It's mostly for distinguishing versions for network traffic. It's only meaningful to us at GG insofar as it makes the demo work properly and is useful to our licensees; the SDK might be 1.3, but your game most likely isn't, so there's not necessarily a big gain to be had in marking it as being "1.3" all over the place...

Ben,

Thanks for the information. I guess I just don't understand the source code yet. It's a little daunting to wrap your brain around. ;)
