Calitar Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I'm a big fan of liflg and I appreciate what you are doing, but this may be too soon for a loki installer. When software gets a nice installer it is easy for a normal user to assume that it is fully usable, but GemRB is not fully usable yet. Combat has not even been implimented. I'm not saying you should'nt make the installers, but you should make sure it is obvious to the user that GemRB is still mostly just for developers/testers. With that said, some installers could help bring in more developers/testers. I have to admit that I was almost scared off by the complexity (more like obscurity) of setting everything up. Some installers would help with that. Link to comment
Avenger Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Yes, the installers should note that this game is still under heavy development and only wanna be testers should use it. I didn't say developers, because developers (even casual contributors) should use the CVS version Link to comment
Calitar Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 I didn't say developers, because developers (even casual contributors) should use the CVS version <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I would actually argue that testers should also be using the CVS. I've filed bug reports in the past only to find out that it's already been fixed in the project's CVS. Link to comment
