Hello,
I heard from a developer today that the CVS version might come out next week, this got me curious. I don\'t really know anything about stages beyond Molecular Blue other than the Crystal Blue which is months away and will be a playable demo. So I decided to see what I could find on the forums before asking.
I did a search on CVS and from what I can find it looks like it is a archive containing all the source necessary to build a PS client on virtually any supported system. Most of the posts seem to be related to linux users. I also see that aCraig has said that we should use it to build a Molecular Blue version.
Since us windows users are currently running a Molecular Blue version, does CVS have anything new for us?
I think windows users probably owe the developers a hearty thank you for making it very easy for us to get this game running. All I had to do was download 5 files, concatenate them together and run an installer.. voila! working MB. It sounds like many linux users had a nightmarish job of getting all the right files into the right places, building a working makefile, then having to compile the code themselves.
I\'d also like to know if anyone can give a list of known releases planned to come and what they entail.. I suspect such information is not written in stone yet, so I don\'t expect a lot ;)
Thanks,
Jamiro

The update will be for all supported platforms.

Thanks Vengeance, I\'m still wondering if the CVS release has new content for windows users. I guess I am not sure if I read things correctly. It sort of looked like it was Molecular Blue for all systems. That is the version I am running now.
