wunderbyrd // User SearchPoor behavior of beta testersNov 30, 2002, 10:58pm
It's funny, I sent in the beta email request months ago, detailing the wide
variety of systems I had to test with, previous beta testing experience with AW, 6 years with AW, programming background, etc., and didn't get in. I keep noticing posts from people that are, erm, probably not ideal testers (like the post a couple of weeks ago from the guy complaining about visual problems but had no clue what kind of video card he had or how to find this information...)

On gigabit ethernet, technically 10GB would take 80 seconds =)
Of course, at "real" rates that systems can push, it would take about 10 minutes, but still =) [View Quote] [View Quote] When oh when is awmapper coming back?Apr 20, 2003, 3:25am
I suppose. I've never had a program written for 95 or above (game or
otherwise) that wouldn't run - only programs that were written for DOS (and used direct hardware access, etc) have run into incompatibility problems (and even then, some of them have worked quite well). Unless you're running a lot of programs from 1992, I don't think compatibility is a real reason NOT to run Win2k. Otherwise, you need to get new programs since 9x is a DEAD platform (thank goodness!)

Boy, it'd be nice to be able to post to the Beta newsgroup...
Is it just me, or are we no longer getting automatically prompted to upgrade beta 3.4? I'm running 481 now, when I launch it doesn't attempt to upgrade... AW Build 483May 3, 2003, 1:34am
I also noticed that, with 483 (which I installed fresh after downloading
from the website), when I try to bring up a stats page with the "/stats" or "/s" command, that the web page displays in the 3d pane - NOT in the Web Pane. This happens whether I have "Show->Web" selected or not. It's not a display quirk (i.e. the web page is simply being overlaid on top of the 3d view), the incorrect window is fully navigable, i.e. I can click on it, etc. It's like the command to bring up the web browser is sent to the wrong panel object or something... This doesn't happen when I simply click on HTML links within the 3d display pane (at least that I've found so far). Am I the only one? Can someone repost these to the Beta newsgroup for me?

Yep, I see it's an option within the "game". I'm guessing the default
changed within Mutation since I was in the world 2 weeks ago, or something like that. =) Sorry about the post, though it's not like there's any sort of documentation or discussion on the subject that I could find =) WB [View Quote] |
