Updates - Are All Required

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/Updates - Are All Required

Abazek(Posted 2003) [#1]
Are the BlitzPlus and Blitz3D updates all-inclusive or do I need to download each one?

In other words, if I download and install Blitz3Dupdate183,
does it include all the fixes found in the earlier
Blitz3Dupdates (182, 180, 179) ?

Or do I need to download all 4 of the updates to get all of the fixes?

(Same question for the BlitzPlus Updates)

Thanks in advance!

You just need the latest one.


Mark Tiffany(Posted 2003) [#3]
As soja says, and as stated in the FAQ, which can be found from the main home page of this site.

[FAQ 46]

*EDIT* grrr. Who disabled FAQ links?!? *EDIT*

Thanks.

I think it would be a good idea for the WebMaster to put this info on the "Product Updates" page.

Mark Sibly himself stated the there may be an update for Blitz3D next week so keep your eyes peeled for that one.

WolRon,
Where did you see that Mark stated there may be an update for B3D next week?

Thanks WolRon, but I don't see anything in Mark's posts that mentions anything. (unless he edited it out.)

Anyway, we'll just have to wait untill its ready and released.


WolRon(Posted 2003) [#9]
Yeah, I thought it was there, but it seems to have escaped me now. I am sure I read it though, because I was suprised to read it.

(Could there possibly be a MarkSibly alias?)

WooHoo !!!
Found it.

1.84,....1.90.....2.0.....when?


Mustang(Posted 2003) [#11]
Yup.

Cubic env mapping, dot3 blending...but no bumpmapping.

Also, GetSurfaceTexture or whatever it was...



I wonder what happened to the bumps... I hope they WILL be added later though. Thay are cool, and my game have uses for them.

Bumps would be nice.
Displacement maps would be very nice.
