Can you clear up the Registration for me

We are giving all owners of the Torque Game Builder the Torque X version of TGB for free too! If you already own Torque Game Builder - INDIE, you can use the registration key for TGB found on your My Account Page to unlock the TGBX trial.
I am a little unclear what this line means for 2 reasons:
1. my line item for TGB actually says: "Torque 2D EA - INDIE License - TGE Discount"
2. I don't have a registration key for mine.
I have not fired up the executables/install, but I do see the TorqueX OpenBeta download, but I didn't want to open the wrong thing and it back fires on me. What is the registration key unlocking -- does it remove the 30 day trial period thus turning the TGB into a Torque X Pro Hybrid?
a little unclear as to how to move forward.
Thanks

Yea I noticed that also and found the editor in the download link for Torque 2D EA - INDIE License - TGE Discount. Only problem is after I installed the editor I get an error when I try to run it and it quits. I think this is the unlocked version but I cant tell since I get this error....

Everyone has to install the Torque X Open Beta.
Torque Game Builder - INDIE owners can then use the reg key on their MyAccount page to unlock the 30-day free trial of TGBX that is installed with the Torque X Open Beta.
All other TGB owners can download the TGB Editors for Torque X from their TGB download page, which will install an unlocked copy of TGBX over the top of the 30-day free trial.
Hope that helps.

Okay, I just went through the install process myself and you're right, it's kinda confusing as written.Everyone has to install the Torque X Open Beta.

I am assuming Torque X is going to be a separate product

So, I have TGB commercial, does this mean that I automatically get TGBX?I am assuming Torque X is going to be a separate product

Yes it does. You can download it from the download link next to TGB Commercial on your MyAccount page. But download and install the Torque X Opoen Beta first.
Torque X is a separate (free) product. When we are ready to release the source code, Torque X Pro will be available for $150.

The key is used to get past the 30 day demo of the TGB editor. You can still use the TorqueX lib without it.
