Talk:GSED

Is this an official piece of software or a group-internal application? Where can it be downloaded?

if it is a "internal" part of a game-dev-system its surely not worth to mention in the wiki. so maybe you can provide a download link for those who are interested in.

Regards, Kangaroo

 

Dear Kangaroo, you hit a good point. Since the software coevolves with Giana Sisters it will be finished not before our first alpha release of our first game. We plan a release some weeks after the release of Giana Sistes. For the moment it may be "surely not worth to mention in the wiki.". So if you like delete this article. TFM.

Can you tell a release date, cause if the release is to far away in the future, its sure better to delete the article and bring him back after the software can be used by the public. As Giana Sisters shall be relesed since two years, maybe you can help with a more accurate date than "two weeks after the GS-release". Thanks Kangaroo MusiQue of HJT 15:06, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

Well, as you know very good, the beta release of Giana was planned for autum 2008 - not years ago. Two years ago I wasn't thinking about it at all. Due to my movement to new Orleans the advised release date will be spring, no, better summer 2009. So please be patient for a while. TFM.

I don't see the point to mention any software in a Wiki, which isn't released yet. It doesn't matter if the release date is known or not (and in this case the announced "release dates" were always wrong), this article should be removed until this program is available. Oh, and it's not a question of being patient on our side, it's only a question of beeing patient on the authors side if he can write such an articel or not ;) Prodatron 22:05, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi Prodatron. Who are these persons? You write "on our side". Are you talking about yourself in the first person plural again? Else please provide the names of the other people which are with you. However, you can delete this article or not. I will not write it again. But if you decide to delete it, then please delete all other articles about software or hardware which is not accessible for public at the actual moment. Think in this case you can close one Third of the CPC-Wiki. I will NOT release any more software previously than alpha status. Also you have been contributed to this decision. Have a good new Year 2009 all toghether. TFM.

Guys, calm down. The real question is: who used GSED? Can someone request it and use it, or is it only an internal release? If it is only internal then there's certainly no reason to announce it to the world... Gryzor 09:16, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

It's in internal development tool for FS programs and not available for the public. I don't know if there are any other articles about software like this in the CPC-Wiki, but as I said I don't see the sense to mention such stuff. @TFM: It's a difference to (old) software, which may not be available at the moment as DSK but were available in the past. Regarding hardware, as an example do you see any SYMBiFACE III ("Silicon Storm") article here in the Wiki? :)) Prodatron 15:43, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
