It alleviates the pressure of offering support etc while still making it available to everyone who wants to use the product for game development.

Re: [Audyssey] BGT Important Update
Hello all. the idea is so good according to my friend MR Vallient Philip sir should abandond the software. the only thing which I can conclude and my suggestion is that Philip sir should decrease the price of BGT the actual cost is $99 it may become $89 or something else. I hope Philip and other elders will highlight this suggestion If I am not wrong there is a tutorial of BGT I tried but I am not able to download it. I would like to say that Philip sir should decrease the price but not in abbandanware. he should sell in shareware. only q9 will not sufficientfor his livelihood. If he will complete his game perilous hearts and sell it will be better for him. People don't want to purchase they want crack. this is the reason that most audio game programmer abbandond their software and finally discontinued. a recent example is Justin Dobbinmire. He made an excellant game Pipe 2 blast chamber but people cracked and uploaded a pirated copy of his game. a thing which I encountered in his games is that the registration programme has a spoiler and people used that and played his games. I don't know that my suggestion will be helpful for him because I am very young and inexperienced I am only 18 years old. ☺ Ishan On 6/1/14, Thomas Ward wrote: > Hi Lenron, > > The user's guide for BGT comes with BGT, and it is in a help format so > it is easy to locate chapters and sections of interest.

Re: [Audyssey] BGT Important Update
Hi Hayden, Not necessarily. If we are talking open source the complaints or bug reports would go to the open source project manager not Philip unless he took up the job of project manager. Not just anyone can edit and modify source code, and any good open source project has rules and regulations that prevent just such an occurrence as you mentioned below. I think a lot of confusion could be avoided if people understood how open source works rather than just assuming anyone and their brother can tamper with the stable release of open source software.

Re: [Audyssey] BGT Important Update
I think its probably worth noting here that notepad has some oddities, especially the fact that the delete prior word (ctrl backspace) has a habit of adding random characters to your file, in addition to not working in the first place. A bgt script is just a plane text file (you can actually get a game to compile just fine with the extensions of your includes as .txt), so any program capable of saving .txt will work just fine. I personally prefer worpad or the free word processor jarte, because they don't add wierd things to the document and jarte has handy features like line count, tabbed documents, and spellcheck). - Original Message - From: "Bryan Peterson" wrote: Hi Valiant, Possibly, but the fact of the matter is the scripting component of BGT, Angelscript, is already open source. I don't know if Philips script compiler is a completely custom script compiler or one based on open source examples, but the point here is that someone could probably use the existing open source examples of Angelscript compilers to decompile games compiled with BGT if they wanted to. So keeping BGT as closed source for that reason alone might be giving developers a sense of false security. The thing to remember is if somebody wants to hack or crack something bad enough they will. The question is not if they can but how hard it is to do it. Cheers! On 5/31/14, Valiant8086 wrote: I think open source would be a bad idea probably.
