Hi everyone...

Just a quick note to let you know that we've released the first round of nightly builds to line cooks and sous chefs for testing. Once they've given it the all-clear and we've finished up a few things on our end then we'll be able to push this out to all Pro users.

Exciting times are coming!

    Nightly builds- still not sure whether to be excited or terrified.

    They're a good thing. More user input considered than before.

    Don't get me wrong, I see the benefit of the nightly build process, and in time I'm sure it will accelerate the software's development. But the pessimist in me is worried that this will also lead to more bugs, incompatibilities, and the like.

    I'll just need to have faith that the dev team knows what they are doing, and make sure I keep backups of all my files :D

    If you're terrified of nightly builds, be sure to stay in safe land of stable releases. :)

    Sure @TheMoonwalls, rub it in :)

    Looking forward to getting nightly builds when they're given the all clear! Great idea @CodeWizard!

    I imagine they have setup nightly builds so you don't have to download them. It's easy to have two versions of GS and work off a copy of your project. One should have a time machine backup type system in place as this is vital in computer work.

    Great news !!!
  • ShmirlyWhirlShmirlyWhirl Member Posts: 189
    Are the nightly build going to be just that- released every night? Or is it just a term for a more rapid release system (ie a couple of times per week)

    The builds are cooked nightly. There may or may not be something awesome in each one. :D

    Will the nightly builds support google glass? You guys are behind.

    @CodeWizard - Curious as to what method you'll be using to get the builds out to us? Just in the forum or something?

    Nightly builds are basically side or Alpha or test builds we now have access to. It's beta testing on steroids as instead of just testing with a limited number of linecooks et... Basically the whole pro community is becoming a beta tester. So you can have two versions of gamesalad on your system the official solid release and a pre release version to test out your game on to see if there are issues and can report them to GS so they can be fixed before they become official releases. Hope that makes it easy to understand.

    Hey chefs, just to let you know I have downloaded the nightly build 00.00.00.221 and noticed that either Alpha < 1 or Blending mode screen is not working as it should.
    When I change the alpha of a white image with an effect to fade it out, it becomes darker.
    Not same result I have on 0.10.4.1.

    BTW RevMob works great! Are we getting RevMob for banner ads as well?

  • StormyStudioStormyStudio United KingdomMember Posts: 3,989
    @Ipalmieri thanks for sharing, best thing to do would be to submit it as a bug here... as that way it will be added to their list of bugs to tackle.

    I believe in the latest builds how alpha is utilized has changed and they are looking at that (it was noted somewhere on release)
