Unofficial, alpha 13 weekly build

[Jeff]

The unofficial, alpha 13 leaked build is here!

A "leaked build" is when John and I literally grab the latest SVN build and package it up for you guys. It has a ton of known bugs, so don't worry if it doesn't work for you. It is not condoned by David, Phillip, and Aubrey, but we want to keep you guys in the loop and give you stuff to play with regularly! Again, there are a bunch of known bugs, so don't worry about reporting issues at the moment. Trac should be set up soon though.

There are some rumors about a blessed build coming soon!

New in this version: (blog post coming soon)

Also, press P to toggle wireframe stuff. Press 8 and 9 to toggle the Rabbot. Press ` for the console.

Testing out BitTorrent this week! Please let me know how that goes.
Windows: (direct) (torrent)
Mac OS X: (direct) (torrent)

A Linux build is currently being worked on by Ryan Gordon -- it will be coming soon (?). Sorry for the delay. :<

Alpha day is Tuesday's and I hope that doesn't change. It's worth getting up in the morning for

I'm having some trouble with the torrent version, all my other torrent downloads are fine. This one is just red and fails to start downloading.

Torrent does not work

A rare bug has appeared!
Jo uses Video Capture!
It's super effective!

Alpha 13 Editor Bug

You guys will like this one. Make sure to watch it all.
It illustrates a bug I've seen a few times, but only just now discovered what was actually happening.

Also I figured out a nice clear way to demonstrate stuff with video, using a program called Mouseposé.
I'll probably be making some tutorials later.


(Actual review of Mac Alpha 13 still to come.)

Could you please host it in another format? I hate Quacktime.

No. The devs are the ones that need to see it, and I think it's fine for them. If they prefer another format I'll change it.

The torrent isn't connecting to any peers, both with Transmission and — out of desperation — BitTorrent

Oh well, the direct link, while a bit slower than usual — started around 531 to 532k and dropped to 484k compared to 750 to 800k — is fine

I would guess that that is an error with the view culling, but I might be wrong. Strange bug though.
