So, The RTB3 Forums & Download System are live and minus numerous small bugs, there have been no system-crippling issues (yet). The RTB Mod Bot has also not hijacked the forums yet so I’d call this release a smooth one. I’ve also noticed there is much confusion over RTB3/RTB2 and all that jazz that I will try and sort out. First off, it was just the RTB3 Forums & Download System that were being released on Saturday - not RTB3 itself. Secondly, the RTB you use on Blockland right now uses the RTB2 downloads system which people have stopped submitting things to, and RTB3 uses the RTB3 downloads system. It makes sense really, but it can be a little confusing.
Anyway obviously this is a bit of an awkward interval between RTB2 and RTB3 since nobody is submitting stuff to the old system (and rightly so, once you go v3 you don’t go back … generally) and honestly, RTB3 won’t be “ready” for a couple of months so here’s the plan:
Despite you guys voting that you wanted a full RTBv3 release I have decided that you really don’t want to wait for it and instead I am going to wrap up everything, get it tested speedily and release it lacking quite a few minor and a couple of major features. Once this is out I will be attempting to add these minor/major features on a weekly basis. That way you can enjoy the new system sooner, and still get everything promised in v3. Feel free to criticise my violation of the system of democracy (like politicans don’t do that every day!) in the comments section or the RTB Development Thread.
Oh and just to put the pressure on, Lets set the RTB3 release date for … July 25th, 2009
Epic Huzzah! I can’t wait for it! But it’s still 27 days away. Almost a month.
I didn’t see this coming! Hope that everything will go smoothly…
Cool. It’s nice to actually have a release date.
I like this better.
Is the release date for the initial release or full featured release?

If you would have read it throught, you would know.

Hey, I really like that RTB3 is my birthday present!

@sgt.cjw915
Like every other RTB update, it will ask you to update RTB after you have accepted, it’ll will do everything for you.
JULY 25TH?!
I.. CAN’T… WA- *dies of heart attack*
So sad that I’m not at home the time he releases it. I have to wait 3 weeks for it! D:
sgt it didn’t release yet.
Also on the RTB3 forums I can’t find the edit button, need some help :/
They don’t have an edit button. You go to filecp then click “edit” on the toolbar on the left side of the page. Then just select your file and the part you want to edit of it.
At leat you dont lie like every other politition
Or commit adultery.
7 more days!
Will the ingame mod manager for V3 lag as much as the current one?
During testing I’ve had no lag during browsing, and only a bit in the MyMods view due to a design flaw I plan to remedy in a future release.
