Does GG have "private" betas or only public ones?

by Chaim Krause · in Torque Game Builder · 11/05/2007 (12:48 pm) · 3 replies

As I am working on my games I wouldn't mind having a daily build of TGB to play with. I understand the issues involved. Is there such a beast, or is that something that is by special invitation only to the uber members of this community. I am perfectly willing to accept an answer of "Go Away!".

There have been private betas in the past that have been on a sign-up basis. I'm not sure about how betas will be handled down the road with Torque 2's transparent development scheme and how that will scale to other products. But I do not believe most people have access to the subversion repo unless they are going port work or the like--and perhaps not even then.

I am sure you understood, but let me just clarify. Read access is all I am looking for. Even a zip file of the compiled files without an installer.

Thanks for the info.

It would be more effective from a bandwidth perspective to allow read-only access to the SVN repo. That way it would only be the updates and not the entire build.

But I don't think either are on the boards right now.
