Torque Application Platform? ; search problems on garagegames.co

by Alex Rice · in Torque Game Engine · 03/11/2005 (9:42 pm) · 2 replies

I tried searching the forums for Torque Application Platform but get lots of unrelated hits, because the forum search does not seem to allow quoting or grouping of search terms. Am I missing something.

Any URLs or news items about Torque Application Platform? I think it's a great idea.

Torque would make a great application base for a number of apps needing data visualization or 3d display.

It's a new way of naming for all of the products related to torque. It's not any one super thing.

In other words: TGE and the lighting pack, the new map program, etc... are all part of the torque application platform.

Here is a quote from the news link on GDC

I have a stupid question. What is the Torque Application Platform?? I've never seen any mention of that before.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



It's the new brand name for the entire suite of Torque products: TGE, T2D, TSE, the various starter kits, I would assume Torque Constructor, Torque Show Tool Pro, and the rest!

Like I said before, It was a naming thing that was said at GDC and I had never heard it before that, so that's probably why you can't find anything on it

Hope that helps
