Remember that the server will get quite a hit when TPT would be published on steam. We should definitely prepare for that!

So OpenCL was included in 40.0?

I hope that TPT will be released on this page too. But what about Desura?

Before we get to far ahead, it would be Simon's decision. Without being to skeptical, is it that easy to put games on Steam?

I would actually like to see it here not in Steam or any place else.

MPSGA
Yeah, I actually agree with that. It should just be its own game.

It would still be its own game if it is on steam. You publish it there, but they don't gain any rights on the game itself. You will still be able to download the game from here.

MPSGA
I thought Desure is a mod distribution system? Will they also distribute games itself?

Probably. There are free games there: Warsow and I don't remember the second one. It is possible.

Well, TPT could be present on both. The question is if one would be ready to take the Steam hit on the server. Could be quite a heavy load. And the search function would have to be upgraded for that as well, with some stuff like saveable buddy filters, ignore etc. when some thousand people join the game

As I said, I would be willing to help move to a distribution platform and do my share with maintaining and planning such a roll-out. Contact me if interested
