Beta-Testing A Score to Settle

[Springheel]

I need a handful of beta-testers to playtest my upcoming mission. There shouldn't be many technical bugs, but I'd like to specifically focus on playability issues (too hard, too obvious, etc) and performance issues; I'd like to get some lower end machines in the mix. Testing will require 1.06, which should be out shortly, but I'll start taking names of anyone interested now.

I would love to test for you Spring.

[Bikerdude]

Wha..., and you didnt pm Springs....I have a laptop and a media pc which can both be considered low end.

[Midnight]

I'd like to put my name down as well. Can only test on Mac at the moment though.

You got bootcamp aint yer..?

[Midnight]

Did have, but deleted it. Now can't install Bootcamp cause I've got hardly any HDD space left.

[Springheel]

I know you're busy getting your own mission ready, so I didn't want to assume.

Oh man...

 

My son is done with kindergarten next week so who knows if I'll be able to squeeze any testing time before work in the morning now

 

I will sheepishly offer whatever and time I can scratch together.

 

My system is extremely CPU bound (P4 3.0ghz) but has a "relatively good" GPU (HD4650 1GB AGP... aka still better than most integrated ones...)

All done, the release version is doing a final round of testing and then its out! So count me in.

 

nb:

 

laptop - mobile c2d 2.66ghz, 4GB ram, geforce 8400GS, VistaSp2

HtcPc - c2d E6300 1.86ghz, 2Gb, HD3850, XpSp2

 

The laptop just about runs the training mission, and the HtcPc runs my season contest mission @ 20-30fps.

[Springheel]

Ok, that's four. Hopefully we can pick up one more person. I'm going to go ahead and start a thread in the betatest forum...I know NH already has 1.06 so he can start right away.

 

Does everyone here already have access to that part of the forum?

[nbohr1more]

I do

[Xarg]

If you need another high spec machine I'm down to test.

[Bikerdude]

Just finished doing my first run through....

 

 

Man oh man, you people are in for something very special when you get to play this.

 

[New Horizon]

I'll be able to get started in earnest after work this evening. I noted a few minor issues while taking a peek last night, but nothing too major. There were a couple of models with visual lines down the middle of their face. I'll post screens.

 

Other than that, wow...what a gorgeous looking mission.

[Midnight]

Does everyone here already have access to that part of the forum?

 

I'm going to need a link / access to the testing forum.

 

 

 

[Springheel]

You should have access now, if I did it right.

[Midnight]

You should have access now, if I did it right.

Thanks, I've got 1.06 installed and working, but I don't have a link for the fm.

Click on the forums link at the top of the forums page, and then scroll down and you should see the beta testing section of the forum.

[Springheel]

if I did it right

 

Apparently I didn't....

[Springheel]

Ok, I set you to "beta-testers" instead of "mission beta-testers". See if you have access now.

[Xarg]

I appear to be able to see an additional area of the forums now.. does this mean I've been accepted as a beta tester, or is this a bureaucratic snafu?

[Springheel]

No, I added you and Midnight as beta-testers. You just have to wait for 1.06, which should be out this weekend.

[Xarg]

Brilliant, map downloaded and placed in the fm folder, just waiting on that sweet update.

[AluminumHaste]

No, I added you and Midnight as beta-testers. You just have to wait for 1.06, which should be out this weekend.

 

Need more help?

[Chiron]

I have some time on my hands too, so If you still need a tester.
