The new version of Evochron Mercenary (which will carry version numbers 2.X) is now available for direct download. For Steam, Impulse, and GamersGate players, it should be available as soon as those platforms launch the update (if they haven't already).

The update is available from the game's official website here: http://www.starwraith.com/evochronmerce ... nloads.htm

Just to be clear: those who already had the beta 2.088 version, do they need to update to this version?

Sweet!!!

And I was preparing my CC... Kudos to you Vice.
Anyway, I've bought Arvoch Alliance a couple of months ago just to support you. So I guess we're even. ;)

Yes, just download and overwrite your steam folder. That's what I did cuz steam was taking to long.

Thanks so much, Vice. You are THE BEST!!! I updated Starport 6 before I even downloaded the client for my main machine. Still downloading it and looking forward to playing it. My users come first though:)

you can install it over your steam version. Or uninstall the steam version and save your profiles, then install the expansion

Download the game from main site, launch the exe, launch the game, it will ask for ID and key, open your steam app, open your game listing, choose evochron merc., look on the right side in the menu you should find "cd key" or "product key" or "whateverkey", open, there you have

xxxxxxx;xxxxxxxxxxxx

xxxxxxx before ; is your ID

xxxxxxxxxx after the ; is the key

enter this in your Evochron screen, and that's it

it worked fine here

Sweet!!!

It seems that a couple of stations that have been built close to planets before the expansion was released, now appear to be embedded inside the planets because of the increased sizes of the planets. I have spotted two so far on the SP6 server, a Rebel Outpost and the 'IMG Quest Over' station, and there are probably more.

For the Rebel Outpost I have requested the server operator to remove the station, and pointed out the IMG station as well. I know that trade stations can be removed by the server operator, but I'm not sure about secondary stations, which are often built right next to trade stations. In case that would prove challenging, I thought I'd point it out here.

That's the best way to handle it, report such stations to the server operator. They can move/remove any station, trade or secondary.

Hi, guys!

Thanks for the evochron mercenary 2.088! The graphics in evochron mercenary 2.088 look a lot better than in evochron mercenary 1.828! I understand when I try the demo version of evochron mercenary before buying the full game, the reference number and the registration key will work, and I also understand when I buy the full game without first trying out the demo version of evochron mercenary, the reference number and the registration key will not work. I think you guys understand this too. Thanks!

Cheers,
Cheri and Bincent

Sweet!!!
