Unofficial alpha 81, weekly build

[Jeff]

The unofficial, alpha 81 leaked build is here!

A "leaked build" is when John and I 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 and Aubrey but we want to keep you guys in the loop and give you stuff to play with regularly! Please report bugs in our Trac system!

*NOTE* Please remember that these are unofficial alphas and they do not represent a finished product. They are not even polished builds, just straight up raw development dumps not intended for public consumption.

New in this version: (see blog)

To download the alpha, use one of these links (please use the mirrors!)

Win (exe): slow original fast US mirror 1

Mac: slow original fast US mirror 1

Please use the speedy mirrors, they are graciously provided by Mow of FoCo Gaming and should provide much faster download speeds. They will also save us a lot of money. (although I am having trouble with them right now)

Breaking news! We now have a set of US mirrors graciously provided by Woet of FFS Network. Please let me know how it works for you!

Subscribe to the dev blog!

We are testing a new Windows installer, which should help with the side-by-side configuration errors. Please remember to uninstall the old version first and let us know how it works!

Note! No PPC, 10.4 Tiger, or Linux support at the moment -- we are waiting on Awesomium for these. AJS says that Linux support is on the horizon, but we cannot make any concrete estimates for it. In the meantime, we may be Wine compatible.

I'll download it now; i'll let you know how it works.
Edit: Works; i'll try the asset pack a little later.

[RabidRabbit]

Awesome, I'll download after I see the blog post maybe.

[cody]

Will (try) and download now...

The fast US mirror are sometimes quite fast here in Europe too, but the "local" mirrors would still be nice...

Also, the AI rabbit is back! Nice!

[ToothyMang]

Looks cool. Glad to hear work on AI

[Ottster]

first one for a while though =]

[Triverium]

Well from NZ the download server is much slower than the old ones, like, used to get 200kb/s now get 20kb/s

[Ottster]

One eu mirror will be back as soon as jeff uploads to it, had some DNS trouble yesterday.

Wow, got so much errors here that I hurt my hand clicking on all of them.

The heap of errors

Shaders won't simply work, I end up with this ugly scene.

The pitiful result

Edit: My bad, reinstalling did the trick.

OK, I have no clue what's up with the Desert level, there's no terrain and there hasn't been for the last several alphas, yet you have screenshots in the blog. What is happening here?

[Wafflemao]

Is it normal for only the Rigging and Animation tabs at the top to appear? I don't seem to have the other tabs along with the Rabbot button. I've had the same issue with alpha 80. The terrain appears fine for me, though.

I uninstalled the previous alpha before installing 81, if that makes a difference.

[Nimai]

Weekly alphas still going strong! you guys rock.

Thank you! The mirrors really do help a lot! I haven't remembered to mention they're great when they work, but they really are rather fantastic. Thanks for the help, and I hope you won't have any more trouble!
