Nightly builds will give you the latest updates from the jMonkeyEngine repository, but it should be mentioned that these are unstable. From time to time, functions may be broken, and there is no guarantee at all that they can be built. To enable nightly builds, perform the following steps:
- In the SDK, go to the Tools menu and select Plugins.
- Go to the Settings tab and check the jMonkeyEngine SDK Nightly (Breaks!) checkbox.
- To look for updates, go to the Help menu and select Check for updates.
