Hey everyone, as some of you have already seen, TGB 1.6 has gone live. You can found it in your "My Account" section of the website, under the appropriate TGB download section.
TGB 1.6 mainly consists of fixes, improvements, documentation compatability, and general clean-up. We really wanted to clean up some of the previous issues and focus on general stability of TGB, so this is the culmination of a lot of work built up and hopefully will improve your enjoyment and general TGB experience.
With the IAC and Torque 2.0 announcements I know a lot of speculation has gone around about our support of our current tech. Hopefully this will help strengthen TGB as a solid experience and game solution, as well as reassure you that we value all of our existing engines and tools as well as our customers utilizing them :)
Note: This has been Fixed Currently the TorqueGameBuilder Pro Mac link is broken. We are aware this and it will be fixed. People were already starting to notice the downloads so we wanted to make the announcement.
Feel free to post any questions, issues, or comments based on this release in this thread. If you have any bug reports feel free to post them in the report bugs forum.
