Title: Version 0.3.013 is on it's way
Post by: DaveG on February 24, 2006, 11:59:07 pm

The new release is in progress, and more information will be posted when it\'s complete.

The new client is available via BitTorrent:
http://laanx.fragnetics.com/bt/PlaneShift_CBV0.3.013.exe.torrent

The server is being rebuilt right now, and after we\'re confident it\'s working properly, it\'ll be opened up for use.  The download servers and update servers are not yet ready.  Even if you want to use the updater to upgrade, you\'ll still have to redownload the maps and the new art, so you don\'t have to wait for the update servers if you\'re concerned about bandwidth.  (though, that will be the easiest method, when it\'s ready)




edited to make it clicky :P

If you surround that address by URL tags, it will even become clickable! :D

Strange that the board option \"Convert URLs\" seems not to work well...

Here\'s a taste of one of two of the new things we\'re testing this version:

Only a few races have the armor textures, thus far.  The grass range is too short, at the moment.

Great.

Another two or three weeks of failed attempts at updating the linux client -_- I hate evolution.

:P

Holy wow. XD

This is one good update, so much better than the old version, is this still Crystal Blue? Anyway, I can\'t wait until the download files are uploaded, I want to play. :D

The grass reminds me of SOF2.

Yes, this is still CB :) The next version, Steel Blue, will be 0.4 - but before that, CB will have several more updates.

I was joking, I know it\'s still CB, but it\'s amazing how much of a jump they can make without it skipping to the next version. :)

No... this is typical for them.  A lot of new features get released at a time.

Every time I\'m about to give up on the game they do something wonderful! I\'ll never lose confidence again :).

Just wish that was my armor design in there. If you need any ideas remember my thread!!!!!!

I hope that my poor old crappy PC (Duron-800, GeForce 2) will still be able to work with the foliage. I hope it can be disabled if not. But the foliage demo from the CrystalSpace developer package worked fine, and e.g. \"Serious Sam - Second Encounter\" worked like a charm for me.
