Download Farcry CMS Nighly Builds

I see this question again and again, "How can I get the latest bleeding edge release of Farcry CMS?"

Many people don't have access to using a CVS client, don't know how to use one, or just don't want to. Well, now you can download the Farcry CMS nightly builds from my website.

The system checks the CVS server daily at 5:00 AM EST. If new file(s) exist the server gets them and adds them to the zip file. If no new files exist, it leaves the ZIP file alone. So you can just check the file date (shown on the website) to see if a newer version exists.

Please note that these are not officially released by Daemon as stable releases and you use them at your own risk. As always, if you are using these files to upgrade over an existing version of Farcry make sure to backup your database and farcry files first.

Geoff Bowers's Gravatar Thanks Jeff.. been meaning to set up something similar on the community site for a while -- just too many other things to deal with just now (especially with webdu looming).

When the dust settles would be happy to transfer nightly building process to the community site, just let me know.

Phillip Senn's Gravatar But I think that's version 3, isn't it?
I'm found
http://www.farcrycms.org/go/downloads/farcry-beta-...
which mentions
http://svn1.cvsdude.com/modius/farcry/farcry_core/...
http://svn1.cvsdude.com/modius/farcry/fourq/trunk

I just want to make sure I get it right because I know it's a large download.

Geoff Bowers's Gravatar FarCry SVN follows fairly standard practice. If you browse the repository you will see that each module is broken into:
./trunk (the bleeding edge, ie. Gonzales 4.0)
./tags (official milestone builds ie. commerically supported by daemon)
./branches (maintenance branches for major releases eg. p300 is v3.0)
./skunkworks (developer playground)

If you want 4.0 beta you need to grab the trunk.
