well i dont know anything about the cvs version so can you play it if it hasnt been updated? i dont even know if the cvs is an online thingy. if not i would be glad to play an semi old version. then when something important is put it (like actual models and butt loads of finished textures) then if someon else were nice enough they could update it then. it seems that those kinds of things only happen every 2 months. still a bit of work, but ayways like i said im not recomending it seriously, just saying that yes that would be a nice thing to do.

I\'m not exactly sure that distributing binaries of the CVS is a particularly good idea.  I for one wouldn\'t even consider it without speaking with one of the devs first...

For one, I think the CVS is one of those priviledge things, that if you can figure out how to get it to build on your computer, with little or no help from the devs, then you are deserving to see what is in store.  If you\'re just the average user then you\'ll have to live with what screenies the devs give you.

There are reasons binaries aren\'t built automatically for everyone to download:
1) CVS is intended to be a developer tool, not a user tool
2) There are things in the public CVS that the devs would rather the whole community not spread rumors about
3) Binaries tend to cause a lot of problems, especially when people try to use them without knowing how to solve minor problems (again, back to the priviledge)
4) As has been mentioned before (by the devs themselves), the CVS graphics look like **** and they don\'t want to hear \"how come the graphics for the next uber-release of PS look like ****?\"

So...Commando I\'m hoping you at least checked with one of the devs about this idea.  Last time I heard even posting CB shots was highly discouraged, but things do have a tendency to change from time to time.  Especially when I get out of my chair to get a couple cookies.

...

Okay, so it\'s *SEVERAL* cookies, you happy now??

Just go away...

How many times has it been said, the gods do not want CVS screenshots posted on the forums. They don\'t want all the dummy/half completed stuff shown to the world as if they\'re \"new screenshots from the upcoming version Crystal Blue!\"... Because they ARN\'T.


So :P
