After months of hard work, we have released our Windows Alpha 0.1.2 version software available for download and immediate public testing. I would like to thank our great development team Nathan Ford, Tushar Singh, and Matthew Herberg.
Alpha releases are rarely made publicly available, but we wanted to release the application for testing to give back to the budding community that has really supported this project in its early stages. Be advised that half frame rate was attained by two people with a fairly good connection and not much in between. Results may vary and we recommend a 256kbps upload speed. Optimization has also not taken place, so rest assured, we realize speed issues. After all this is an alpha release.
Please note when downloading, WinPCap is a required library needed to run Warp Pipe on Windows correctly. Therefore, two installers exist accordingly. FULL: This release has the Windows (alpha) Warp Pipe software and WinPCap required library. This release is recommended for those who do not have WinPCap installed, as it is a required library to run Warp Pipe. LITE: This release is intended for people who already have the WinPCap library installed.
As you may have noticed, we have pulled our linux alpha due to compatibility issues with Windows Alpha. Rest assured that all operating system releases will be operate with each other, hence the reason we pulled it. We will release rpms and debs as soon as we take care of the compatibility issues.
