When you have a G-force 2 or better card you
can change you\'re videocard resolution.

I had to change it to 140% brigthness before i could see
normal in the dark area\'s.

Right click on your desktop->Properties.
Configuration->Advanced
Select your graphics name tab
If you have an Nvidia card, you should have there an entry called \"colour correction\" rise the gamma slider a bit.

Sound is buggy, so some people may have to play with it off. No way of working around that at the moment, until the issue is fixed.

The next release (I keep saying this... but it really should be soon... :| ) uses the new CS sound renderer, and should be more stable.

Despite being a 0.3 version, the game has an updater that is actually capable of taking the required files everytime a change to a file is made so, if the mirror problems get sorted, you\'d have absolutely no problem to have your version updated using the updater only, no need to download a whole new client again, saving you bandwith and time ;)
