Nemo · 04-22-2003, 03:37 AM

I am surprised that no one has mentioned the release of the beta version yet.

Reichart mentioned it a few times

I am very impressed with the beta. Only had to see it for a few seconds before I got my keycode ( and I don't even LIKE goldfish )

Thanks to all involved

All I get is an object not found page.

ROBinLA · 05-05-2003, 07:12 PM

Hmmm...I'm getting an object not found error when I hit the link Reichart. Is it just too busy? Oops...see that you posted that at the same time as me. Glad I'm not alone at least

Nice crosspost

Ralph · 05-28-2003, 05:50 PM

With the last beta dated May 19..... and, with still a number of problems. Are we going to get a new copy to test any time soon.....

Reichart · 05-28-2003, 05:55 PM

Yes, a new version is going up this week. Which has a new fish.

James · 05-29-2003, 01:28 AM

is Monstro the new fish u mentioned or there's another one?

Reichart · 05-29-2003, 10:15 AM

It is always going to be tricky to speak to beta testers about release products.
But, we are going to be putting the most recent version that is in Test/ onto www.LifeGlobe.com
To everyone going there, Monstro will be new.

feldon34 · 05-29-2003, 10:24 AM

It's really NOT tricky at all. You have a test site. You have an official public product website. Sometimes you put up a test version on the test site. Sometimes you feel a beta is mature enough to release at the official product website.

Verbiage:

"The next version of Goldfish Aquarium we are working on will skip the Prolific test site and become the official Release version at www.LifeGlobe.com. For the general public, this will be the first available version with Monstro. This next beta is/is not a new build which does/does not address bugs which have been reported in the May 19th 1618 build."

Jav400 · 05-29-2003, 12:40 PM

Sounds simple to me.

05-29-2003, 06:34 PM

When I go to the LifeGlobe site and "meet the fish" there are still only the four I'm familiar with. Where is the new beta? Am I missing something (besides Monstro)?

Ralph · 05-29-2003, 09:47 PM

With all the bugs in the May 19 beta, most which are more noticable than in the previous beta you guys are going public!
