Sup? Just got here, today

Hey, I just got Torque. Have heard a lot of good things about it, seemed pretty good.
I've been using BlitzBasic 3D for a few years now but, am starting to get miffed about lack of updates, and lack of progress on the new BlitzMax, which was supposed to have an integrated 3D module a year and a half ago. I'm not trying to knock on Blitz though, it was pretty good.

So, I have background in C64, C128, GWBasic, QuickBasic45, VisualBasic, C scripting, and have extensively worked with 3DS Max.

I guess my only question at the moment is where to download offline documentation? Although, I haven't installed Torque yet, so I'm guessing it might be included?

Any old BlitzBasic3D/Plus/Max users around here?

There is no official offline documentation that I know of.

In google we trust. I found the scripting documentation in a help file format. Your best documentation is the engine source code.

TDN is becoming a great resource as well. You can get there by hovering your mouse over Developer at the top of this page then clicking Torque Developer Network. Also welcome to the community.
