This is a work-in-progress port of the Torque 3D Community Edition project to the MIT Licensed Open Source version of Torque 3D from GarageGames.
- The ceport branch will be the working snapshot of the CE project. It will be based upon the master branch, with all changes verified as working against the master branch.
- Topic branches will be used as transitional branches to contain the work-in-progress commits. Once the work for a specific topic is complete that branch is merged into the ceport branch. There should be no direct commits to the master or devlopment branch.
- Binaries and other executables will rarely, if ever, be updated here. You are responsible for compiling the project on your end.
- The testing project will be bruilt from the Full Template with Bullet and other optional build components enabled. Look to the Full Template's project.conf for an example of the conditional build options if using any other template project.
- Any Community Edition member who has read & write access to the license restricted repository can ask for read & write access to this GitHub repository as well. All others will be evaluated.
- Pull requests are welcome!
