Lee is working on it now and is integrating some new graphics for the UI. I cannot say when it will be but knowing Lee it'll be later this evening once he's done what he needs to do.

No you will get a download from your TGC account. Steam keys are not available until the full September release.

If I may ask, will this new engine get regular updates, or will we have to wait for a new build each month or until release?

Just a reminder, back up your projects if you intend to open them in Game Guru Max. This is an early alpha.

You should be safe in general, as GG Max will have its own folder. So if you are moving a project over to GG Max make sure its a copy.

having Max in another folder on another drive and copying over the data from GG should make me safe, right?

Also please note.
When Lee announces the release please keep the alpha questions or reports to that thread so he doesn't have to go through loads of Threads.

Good Question
What I do know is if I open a map in GG and later open an old GG DX9 backup the last map I loaded in GG is in the list and will load it from the other files folder. That would mean any saving would be in the other folder … I would try it out first by saving a blank map in GG and see if it pops up in the Max list ?

If so then copy your files folder into Max and rename the one in GG to "files2" to be sure.

So first step must be getting room in my hd.

I wonder how i GG is going to find entities if I rename "files" folder as "files 2".

That was a precaution whilst using Max.
Obviously you rename it back when using GG but you were kidding and knew that right ..

Sorry for the delay, the system we use is not designed by default to offer downloads on a pre-order. As many of you know, this is still Lee's Tuesday officially, so it still counts Hopefully not long now!

You can now find the very first and probably very shaky first alpha build in your TGC account. I have made a post. Proceeding to post on all the social feeds now - post any issues you find there, thanks!!

Haven't ordered it yet-- can wait until the 20th, 30th, or whenever.
But-- hoping that;
A> it does NOT conflict with GG Classic, it finds it's own residence
on my HD in peace and stability without a lot of hacking.
B> it starts and operates. // I know it's *Alpha*, far from perfect!
Looking forward to hearing good news. Show us your videos!
