Pourquoi choisir l'accès anticipé ?

« Early Access will allows us to ensure stability and performance tuning for a wider range of systems and focus on developing features that users want the most. »

Combien de temps environ ce logiciel sera-t-il en Accès anticipé ?

« We are hoping to keep the program in EA as short as possible. Currently we are looking for 3-6 months of Early-Access period to develop new features, APIs and the AI-Assistant part and make sure the Mascot Characters does not have bugs, technical problems or performance issues on Early Access users. »

En quoi la version finale sera-t-elle différente de la version en accès anticipé ?

« The main major and eye-catching feature for which we are opting for early access is the development of AI-Assistant and integration of a variety of utility APIs and Cloud Services. By the time we leave Early-Access, we are hoping the AI-Assistant would be production and real-world ready. Other than that, there will be a large number of 3D/2D Mascot Characters available to choose from to have them live on your desktop.
Last but not least, we hope to have a full fledged Workshop Integration to allow automated integration of user submitted models, services, APIs and content to the project. »

Quel est l'état actuel de la version en accès anticipé ?

« Desktop Mascot Engine currently has multiple fully working Mascot Characters and only lacks the AI-Assistant part of the project. You can chose a Mascot Character to have it live on your desktop and fiddle/interact with it for it to respond back to your interactions. »

Le logiciel sera-t-il tarifé différemment pendant et après l'Accès anticipé ?

« The Project will gradually rise in price as new major features are added to it during and after Early Access. We are planning to have certain inAppPurchases and crowdfunding/Patreon goals to support its MachineLearning development costs. »

Comment comptez-vous impliquer la communauté dans le processus de développement ?

« We wish to collect feedback and suggestions to create more features and contents, and are hoping the community itself will speed up the development of the project as a Community Contributed Project.
We will also be creating APIs and Guides to allows users to write AI/Assistant code and services themselves and submit them for integration to main project. »
