Nightly Builds

Traditionally, “nightly builds” are automatically built from the main development tree every night.

Our Github repository is configured to build automatically on every commit and PR push. If you want to test more recent versions of Terrain3D than the releases, you can download these “push builds” or “nightly builds”.

They are exactly the same construction as the releases except for the commit used. However, they are inherently less tested as new commits have more recently been merged in, and may have more bugs.

  1. Click here for Github Actions, Build All workflow, main branch.

  2. Click the most recent successful build:

../_images/build_workflow.png

  1. Download the artifact, which is just a zip file with a nightly build. You must be logged in to github to download it.

If have trouble with the unsigned macOS released builds or wish to contribute, learn how to Build from Source on your own system.

PR Builds

You can also test builds of PRs. Instead of specifying the main branch above, select the branch listed at the top of the PR. Or click the Checks tab, then Build All to see the summary page, which has the artifact.
