The yardstick is whether or not the code responsible for the bug is in SVN. Taylor's xt builds have lots of code in them which isn't in SVN which means that is someone other than him looks at the bug they often find they can't reproduce it.

Goober doesn't mention having any features which need testing before they go into SVN which therefore means that pretty much any actual bug you hit should be in Mantis.

@MP-Ryan: Again, mantis it? 

Taylor has generally said not to Mantis Xt build bugs - I wasn't sure if the same when for these recent builds or not.

Yes, but you said that THIS BUILD (which is not just Taylor's own and not submitted code) suffers the issue.



Nevertherless, I think this issue is solved now.

So...  Why doesn't this build support GLSL/Normal maps?

[Goober5000]

Because those aren't in the stable branch yet.  See the first post.

Ummm, OT but can us poor mac users get a build...? It's been 3 months already :|

I'm the only SCP person who makes them and I simply don't have enough time to do it for the foreseeable future.  I want to say that I will, but it ain't likely to happen anytime soon.

Feel free to make and post your own though.  If you want the code base for the Xt builds then send a PM my way and I'll give you a link.  You will pretty much be on your own regarding getting a working project file going in either case though.  The SVN project file is seriously out of date, and the current Xt project file requires modified system headers to compile.

I've tried, but the XCode project file is really messed up and/or in need of major updating.  I would like to see a new mac build, there are some new features that I would really like to take advantage of, but if no one is around to build it and/or update the project file I understand.

Three days is not within the foreseeable future?!?

Three days is not within the foreseeable future?!?

Well, I didn't foresee it 3 days ago. 

I was just getting the project file usable, while working on other Mantis bugs, and a working set of builds was an unfortunate side-effect of the process.
