| Posted : Monday, November 5, 2001 - 23:26 Thats right. Those using the local downloads will need to get 2.10b.
it basically adds the new terrain maps, and images for them. Last Edited : Wednesday, January 16, 2002 - 19:56 | Lord Mak Joined 9/22/2001 Posts : 151
| Posted : Monday, November 5, 2001 - 23:29 Why would I need to use a download? What is the benefit than just playing from the web? | | Proteus [R]Joined 12/26/2000 Posts : 608
| Posted : Monday, November 5, 2001 - 23:34 the local downloads means you have all the large Flash files, and all the static images on your local PC.
this means faster gameplay for you, and better performance from the server (as less bandwidth is used by the server to send you that stuff).

| Posted : Wednesday, November 7, 2001 - 19:46 To get these local downloads, do I have to go throught that contorted procedure on news page...cos I cant be bothered mate, not at my age ): Am I losing out or what ? I still got 8 squares around my armies...
what is that clause about "if you mess this up, you will not see any map at all" ! hahaha...I just know that is what will happen in my case . | | Proteus [R]Joined 12/26/2000 Posts : 608
| Posted : Wednesday, November 7, 2001 - 20:04 its actually VERY easy if you're PC-literate. I just put warnings, etc for those that arent.
its really just an unzip into a specific new directory. Simple. then just modify your account to point to that directory. cant get much easier... assuming you know how to use a computer. | | firstknight Joined 9/3/2001 Posts : 273

having been a support person once, i've seen all types  | | Wyld Chyld Joined 7/16/2001 Posts : 432

*phones support desk at work* "Hey my computer has smoke coming out of the back of it. Is the server on fire?"
Proteus probably heard that one directly  | | Floyd-O-Matic Joined 8/27/2001 Posts : 2517
| Posted : Tuesday, December 4, 2001 - 11:09 Brrrrr!! Tech support is the "Voyage of the Damned". I know all too well. | | El Cid Joined 6/26/2001 Posts : 1396
| Posted : Tuesday, December 4, 2001 - 13:12 This is an old posting I think... | | Floyd-O-Matic Joined 8/27/2001 Posts : 2517
| Posted : Tuesday, December 4, 2001 - 13:42 I belive that it is, however it is my sacred duty to point out to all the land that tech support is

| Posted : Tuesday, December 4, 2001 - 14:30 it's the user's fault...
'my computer wont print' "are you logged in" 'no'
it's always the user!@! dont blame tech support or admins...

| Posted : Wednesday, December 5, 2001 - 13:03 Perhaps I have been misunderstood. I have been a geek for the last 20 years, and in that period of time did tech support. I have never fully recovered from that period in my life, and will accept cash donations from those who feel sorry for me. | | clean ***** eater Joined 9/2/2003 Posts : 3
