Getting torsion to run with TGB 1.5 release?

#1 Basically, Torsion is no longer used to run the level builder itself--it executes the game runtime directly.

Workflow is basically:

--Startup TGB 1.5, create a new project (note carefully the path you create the project it, it now defaults to your "My Documents/MyGame" directory instead of where TGB was installed).

--do stuff, save

--Start up Torsion, select "Open Project.." and navigate through your "My Documents/MyGame/.../Torsion" directory to find the automatically built torsion project, and open it.

--run with the "Play Level" if you like, but this does not use Torsion (quick tests are easy with this branch of the workflow)

--when you want to do a Torsion debug, simply leave TGB editor open, and swap focus to Torsion, and debug normally. Since it runs the game executable directly, the level builder executable stays open in the background, and Torsion <-->TGB Game exe works as usual.

#2 When you create your new project be sure to check the "Copy Game Executable to Game Path" box. If you don't do this you can still copy it over manually.

#3 Ta guys..

BTW: What about existing projects using the new executables etc? Is there a way to create the torsion settings? Or I guess I could just copy the game exe into the game directory and run torsion using that.

Okey doke :)

Correct :)

btw you can now run multiple release instances on the same computer... great for testing networking.

#5 Also you need to upgrade to Torsion 1.1.130 beta which has fixes for TGB support.

#6 Thanks for the link of the new torsion , i also wonderd why nothings happening when starting torsion ;), now everything's working as it should ...
