Time for a progress update I think. As a couple of you may remember - this Saturday the 25th of July is our RTB3 release date. We’re cutting this pretty close (but not that close considering its a release date I just pulled out of my ass). At the moment the following features have been cut from the initial v3 release to be added in the following weeks:
- Viewing add-ons by user-configured “groups” instead of by add-on category.
- Viewing/submitting comments for add-ons via the Mod Manager.
- Steam-like overlay for ingame toggling
The plan is to integrate each one of these each week after v3. So the following saturday after v3 release we’ll be releasing a bugpatch for any issues found (there will be many) and also the ability to view add-ons by groups. The following week we’ll release another bugpatch followed by comments, then another bugpatch with the steam overlay. (Then more bugpatches) Currently I am re-working the server control to be easier for multiple people to edit, and to fix a nasty bug that limited how many prefs could be set using the server control. It also fixes a number of issues and re-works the basics of the system to allow for later extensions. The final task is making the “Welcome Wagon” which is not actually a wagon at all. When you start up RTB3 for the first time you’ll get a few slides of information (complete with an assortment of gesturing minifigs) explaining changes to RTB, and why you should immediately sync your add-ons (need to make the syncing feature too). Once that’s done - we have RTB3.
And that’s the plan. Oh - the bad news is we’ll probably miss our RTB3 release date by a week. I’ll see if I can get it out on time but it will mean foregoing any testing.
Tags: again, missing release dates, rtb3
sounds good
Aww.. No comments yet in v3. Well, sounds good anyways.
Awww I REALLY want that addon group feature.
What’s Steam?
Steam = http://www.steampowered.com/
Steam is a popular application for older/more mature gamers.
Created by Valve to be a “buy and play” type of program, as well as it’s own community.
Like Amazon.com and Xfire mashed together, pretty much.
We’re comming somewhere. Hope that it will be released soon, even if I cannot test it until August 14…
i wanna play RTB but i dowload it and idk were to go play it please help meh!
I say just release, it, we’ll do the testing for you.
Besides, as you said, there will be plenty of bug patching anyhow.

O.o So much for the 25..?
looks like you aren’t paying attention to time-zones slayer
25th of July was the release date for the beta, for beta testers.
Lol, i didn’t know that it was that type of Steam. I play it. XD
Five days later, and RTB3 still isn’t out yet. What the fuck?
@Sonicfan574
It needs more testing. Currently it’s at beta 2 and I bet there are atleast two or three more betas coming.
Couldn’t you have at least made an update saying it’s delayed then?
He did!
