I have just made a new constructor beginner tutorial that shows you how to install and configure it. As described in the video’s description:

A video tutorial on installing on configuring Torque Constructor for use with Marbleblast. Included is downloading the application, updating/patching to the latest version, importing textures, setting up default preferences, and more. It’s a must have for those interested in getting started with constructor.

Anyways, I highly recommend it. More like this will be coming in the next few weeks

You can watch it here on youtube. If you have the bandwidth for it, I very much suggest watching in HD; the picture is superb.

Hi all,

After months of long discussions and planning, myself and Ben (from PhilsEmpire) have finally pulled it all together and released Beta 1 of MarbleBlast Platinum 1.12. The lengthy part wasn’t getting it to work on mac; the installer was more time-consuming to create. Because there would literally have to be pages and pages of manual instructions, we decided to release it as it is with an installer instead. This greatly simplifies the installation process. I have received countless emails since 1.02 asking for clarifications on the instructions for install and issues people were having, so hopefully that flow of mail will start to diminish with this new release. One thing that myself and everyone included is depressed about is the lack of leaderboards on the Mac build. Don’t think we decided this; there was just nothing we could do because the exe left out much network support needed, and we can’t modify the exe.

Enough with all this talk, you can download it from Phil’s Empire in the Mac Downloads section.

One more thing: if you are using MarbleBlast Platinum for mac, please show your support and give comments on its iUseThis page. Just register an account, click the ‘iusethis’ button under the icon, and give a quick comment. By showing your support for it, it may enlighten others who do not have the game. It would be awesome if some of you guys did that.

Hey everyone,

This is just an announcement informing you of a site update (that has been in work for the last three months). I’m really happy with the results, some noticable new features include organizational changes (level packs now has it’s own page), content revisions, a feature on the Level Packs page to view all levels released each month, and a small forum being added. In addition to this, there were a voluminous amount of behind-the-scenes changes in the coding for productivity for myself and code revisions for W3C validation. It may not seem like a lot on the outside, but to me it is a big accomplishment.

Also, the three latest monthly packs have been released. I am sorry that the September and October pack weren’t released right away; it just wasn’t practical to release them without incorporating all the changes I have done. You may also notice a new favicon, it is pretty bad, but I like it.

Browse the site all you want, and don’t forget to download the latest monthly level packs!
