Question Where did the beta forum go?

[Archabacteria]

When I last grabbed a version of Orbiter 2010 (Before June, for sure), the place to get it was in the beta forum. Now I want the latest version. I can't seem to find where it is now. So where else can I get the latest version?

Since I haven't yet, I'll spend the time you are reading or replying to this poking around various areas.

EDIT: Clarification: I found the download area.. But I don't think 100606 is the right one, since the external graphics part has recently been released publicaly for 100608.

Latest beta can be downloaded here:

The Beta forum is actually a project and its in the same place it was, just renamed 'ORBITER 2010'.

Ah. Alright, something still odd though.

That references a version 100608. Is it just a standalone Orbiter client or can it be applied to any version, because I don't see a 100608 in there. Just 100606 and on to the 1007xx/8xx's.

Those dates are just the build dates. While Orbiter2010 was released on 100608, the final build date was two days earlier, 100606.

Ah. Now I'm seeing where all the logic is in these numbers. So the latest betas were designed this month, then. I'll do the usual trick and make two different folders for the beta and release version. Thanks for the answers.

Don't forget, to use any of the new betas since 100606, you'll need to extract them over a copy of 100606 as well. They're difference builds, so they don't work otherwise.
