Hello

The new GC release 2 seems to be reasonably bugs free
You should be finally able to finish a game
Instability was the main issue with B.V, at least this is what I read
No direct experience
Did any anybody try Game Core release 2.0 ?

never heard of it and cannot find it through google, could you provide a link?

http://www2.gamecore.ca

Gamecore is the follower of Beyond Virtual.

Oh, and it is just another unfinished Release Candidate, not the final release.

My experience with GameCore so far: Nice next Gen workflow. But there is no really working community besides some fanatic fanboys that takes everything personal and as an attack at their fan product. There is still no working manual, just some fragments. You get pointed back to the Beyond Virtual Manual. The old Beyond Virtual Forum though with all the knowledge is closed. You already need programming skills in Angel Script. They don't help you with that. Now where shall i have that from when i come from 3DGS? There is simply no way for a beginner to start with GC in a comfortable manner.
And it is still Beta, even when this guy talks about Release candidate. One example is the keyboard layout. I cannot change some menu related stuff because i have a german keyboard layout here, but GC uses the US layout internally. And i don't find all the american special signs like semicolon. Reported before months, reminded, still there in RC2. Seems that this guy is not interested in international users. It may become useful in two or three years, but currently it isn't. I am back at 3DGS

Thanks
Actually I was aware that GC is still lacking a good documentation
However , do you know whether the several annoying bugs of B.V. have been fixed ?

I was one of the first people to purchase BV when it was still in beta!
It showed great promise and had some very interesting features, but the development has been a constant array of disappointments... almost all the people i know have left BV (now GC).

I'm still very skeptical about it, but who knows

GameCore is another product. With other bugs and quirks

Actually there is something strange

Apparently no GC demo is available
If so,it is not fair to ask 250 usd for a beta bersion without giving the possibility to test it

Not to mention that many people are skeptical because of the bugs in B.V.

Nevertheless I like very much the B.V. \ GC architecture

There is no demo because there is no full version neither. As told, it is still in development


Yeah, as told, nice next gen workflow. But that is not enough to make a game ...

What annoying bugs are you referring to?

any old BV licensee like me still around? how's the update handled, any hints?
