Will existing users get access to the new version on the marketplace?
If that is something that we can do, then certainly!
I have been hard at work prepping the next version of our plugin which has undergone a complete rewrite. I am currently putting together the UE4 Demo Project and I thought I’d post a preview of one of the demos. (It’s a big gif so give it time to buffer.)
I am getting things figured out with Epic for proper Marketplace distribution. While that is happening all existing licensees of this plugin will soon get Beta access to the Plugin and the private GitHub repo for full source access.
I hope you are as excited as I am.
Is there a time frame for supporting 4.8.1?
Well, here is what I have left to do:
Finish up the Demo UE4 project.
Finish setting up the GitHub repos, currently just the Readme’s and Licenses left to do.
Put together an updated video to serve as a basic intro to cover the getting started bits. Used also as preview video for Marketplace submission.
That’s it. I’m thinking I’ll have most of those done by the end of this week. I don’t want to set a concrete date just yet but, the Beta for everyone who has already purchased; should be ready end of next week.
Also, please keep in mind that the Beta will be Windows only. But there is nothing stopping you from making a Linux/Android/OSX/iOS build yourself since you’ll have source access.
Quick update for everyone:
I have just finished up the demo level! Both repos are all setup and the READMEs are done.
Only thing left to do is the demo video, which will be submitted to Epic for Marketplace approval. And I’ll post it in the forums to start a new thread since it is essentially a new plugin.
I am thinking of starting the Beta right after I finish the demo video. This way it’s all released in one go. But I’d like your feedback on this.
All of that sounds good, new thread, beta. Did you resolve how those that bought before can gain access to the version?
The access to both the plugin and library GitHub repos will be given through the email that was used to purchase the previous Ropes plugin. As for getting codes for the Marketplace, still waiting on Epic to get back to me. Do note that there will be no difference between the version on the Marketplace and the version on GitHub. The only difference would be that the Marketplace one will be “auto” copied to the Engine/Plugins folder.
I need this information as well. I just bought it from the website, not having paid close enough attn. We’ve been running 4.8.x for quite a while (4.8.2 now), and this simply doesn’t compile with it. ugh.
Would you consider a source distro, either generally, or in individual as needed cases? Unreal updates the engine quite frequently, and I don’t like the idea of having a dependency on a plugin that I can’t be sure is going to work with each new editor version.
Hi RogueRocket,
First off, thank you for purchasing!
As mentioned above, everyone who purchased this plugin will get early GitHub access to the new plugin and the physics library. I have wrapped up all the prep for submitting to Epic for approval to the Marketplace today and will send out GitHub instructions by the end of the week for everyone who has already bought this plugin.
Apologizes for the mix-up, hopefully this will not delay your project too much.
Hey,
Does your plugin work with 4.8.2 already? Thanks!
Hi Ozzie,
As mentioned in previous posts, this plugin is 4.7 only but the new plugin will be for 4.8 and will give source access to all licensees of this plugin. I will be sending out Beta access as soon as Epic gives me the greenlight.
Thank you.
I sent out an email with instructions on how to get into a closed beta test of the new plugin, if you did not receive it just send me a PM and we’ll get you sorted. The closed beta test is for those who have already purchased this plugin.
It is so cool! Definitely buy from me right after realizing this on marketplace!
