nyles 11 Posted January 15, 2004 Ok what i missed is that 1.95 is not compatible with previous beta versions. So, if you don't want to wait until the 1.95 server files are out and some servers are updated, before you can play mulitplayer again, I suggest to wait. My guess is that it won't take too long, though. Were it not for the (yet) missing server files, the fact that 1.95 servers will only accept 1.95 clients is a very very good think! Thumps up!

canukausiuka 1 Posted January 15, 2004 Has anyone tried the rudder during flight on planes yet? Â Its mentioned in the readme, but I don't have a joystick to try it out with (least not at school with me). Also, the faster map drawing is very nice. I loaded up Tonal and the mission editor was just as easy to use as a normal sized island. Very nice BIS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kegetys 2 Posted January 15, 2004 Has anyone tried the rudder during flight on planes yet? Â Its mentioned in the readme, but I don't have a joystick to try it out with (least not at school with me). It works with the keyboard too... maybe a bit too effective when going fast? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
