New Multiplayer System, need help testing...
Testing has been going well on the new multiplayer system and I'd like to bring in some more players to try it out and make sure it's reliable before
implementing it in an official build (it involved a major re-write of many multiplayer routines/systems). If you are interested, please contact me
via ICQ and I will send you the details and notices when testing sessions start. You are not obligated to participate in testing sessions, you can
simply ignore them if you aren't available, or join in if you'd like to participate. I generally need at least 3 players per test session, preferably
more.
The new multiplayer system is not compatible with the old one, so I suggest you keep the original installer handy in case you want to reinstall the
older build for participating in multiplayer games with others using the original multiplayer system. You can revert back to older builds the same
way you update to newer builds, just run the desired installer.

How long will this testing continue? I would like to participate if it's going to be on for some more days to come. Don't have ICQ though.

Testing will likely continue for a while, still have a little fine tuning and some things to double/triple (and more) check. It's getting pretty
solid now.

ICQ2Go seems a little bumpy, tried to add people by their ICQ # and all I got was "Operation timed out".
So, just installed it now.

Hello,
I am new to this game, but willing to help.
Not an ICQ user, so you would need to send details via email or U2U.
I have been playing off-line, but it appears I can play on-line just as easy, now I have set port forwarding up.
So if I am playing, I can be found on the Comaslair server.

ICQ is generally the best method as it lets us talk to each other if there is a crash or other problem and stay connected for updates/further
discussion. The new multiplayer system is very different from the old one, you should not need to forward ports or anything with the new system
(unless you host). You can simply click to connect to a game. I can send you the details to try the test builds via e-mail, just send me an e-mail
from the address you want to receive notices at (in my signature, starwraith.com link > Contact).
