Hello,

I have a question related to future release of GameStudio.
A7 Engine is on the scene for a long time. (now it's 7.6)
I wonder when will you release A8

I'm planning to buy the Pro version and because of my bad luck, as soon as I buy A7, A8 will be released, and I want to prevent this.

I know we can upgrade but, I don't want to lose $300+ (possible A7-A8 upgrade fee for Pro versions) because of my hurry.

Pls inform me about the future release plan.
( Do you guys at least can say "we're not going to release A8 within next 12 months )

thank you for this nice software.
keep up the good work.

Well, I am not the most knowlegable (so I can't speak for Conitech),
but if you look at the history, each version keeps getting longer and
longer. A6 was around for I think over 3 years, and A7 is a little over
a year (someone can correct me, I could be wrong).
There was a big jump from 7.2 to 7.5, which to be honest scares me
that A7 could have a short life span.
Besides, I just bought it 1 year ago, so I hope it lasts 2 more years
(so I don't have to pay for more improvements)...

But I am curious myself..... A7.6 came kinda quick....

Yes, I think it is great software too! It keeps getting better and better
at quite a good pace (in a few years, it will have more potential than
anyone can take advantage of)!

A7 is about 1.5 years old. I would be disappointed if it doesn't last at least 1 year longer...

We're by far not yet finished with improving A7, so it is very unlikely that we start programming A8 anytime soon or in the next 12 months. And even if we did, all people ordering in the months before the A8 release will get the upgrade for free, just as we did with A6 and A7.

thank you for your explanation.
this looks quite fair.

Today, I bought this software from Canada by using wire transfer method.
I'm eager to start using 3D Game Studio

take care,
Mehmet Can
