how strange, I was looking in that category this morning/afternoon ish time for new items lol. weird

[StarFire]

wonder if its available only once green lit?

[lordalmighty1]

possibly, I would be inclined to contact them about it. I know game guru was marked as a game not software when 1st released on steam

[StarFire]

just slung them a mail, we shall see if they get back to me.

Why is your greenlight page still hidden?

[lordalmighty1]

the gen2 software is in a very early alpha state and not fully ready for greenlight just yet.

[psychoanima]

Thanks for your answers. On steam you can find a lot of software on sale in alpha stage, so you can get some financial support there before beta/final release.

[lordalmighty1]

yes we know, but for skylines sake its better to have a much better start then some of those 3+year alpha softwares do.

why rush and ruin a reputation of skyline with steam users, who honestly don't seem to understand the alpha phases of software that much. the software will get there its just a case of having as best a start as possible which should limit the bad reviews from the ignorant users as possible, and help skyline get funded better in the long run.

as skyline is mainly developed by just 2 scripters working their arses off finding and nailing down the worst problems now before steam release is their goal.

[StarFire]

Thanks LA and Liam, I can not add any more than what you guys said apart form we have a few new features being prepared for release...... once the day to day stuff is fixed.

@psychoanima thank you for your green-light interest. We want to ensure we can get Skyline as good as it can be in the pre release period. We are aiming to hit the publish button in the next couple of months.

Very nice logo. Indeed!

I will second that Gen2 is very stable. Currently working on Lua scripting with cubes and spheres in a scene with a large 1m thick x 500m2 cube to act as ground during conversion and testing. I have had zero crashes....so really solid on the script side of things.

[SolarPortal]

That is very good to hear that Gen2 is stable for you Olander
Yes, proto areas we have used for a long time to develop our mechanics, particles etc before moving into a full scene lol
Will be working on the terrain in the next couple days again after i finish where i am on the GUI editor which has improved a lot.
