News: MAXR 0.2.9 Release

MAXR 0.2.9 Release

We're happy to announce MAXR 0.2.9 with many new features and bugfixes. The Changelog speaks for itself:

1. Releases

Distributionnoarch/universalx86ppcx86_64

Manual:

Package manual.pdf
Search Frequently Asked Questions

Important:

Due many changes we recommend a fresh install of MAXR especially when you make use of the resinstaller. Some game resources changed and if you e.g. don't have sound any more you know that you have to rerun resinstaller 0.2.9.

Info:

If maxr fails to start maxr.log is a good place to start. If you're stucked it might be a good idea to take a look at the manual. Please report crashes, bugs, odd behaivors or differences to the original game on the Bugtracker.
Hint: Drop by on the Discord to find other players. There is no game lobby or some sort of master server. MAXR is a standalone application and you have to find other players the old way. Ask your friends, on the Discord or even on the bbs. Remember about timezones when you party.

Make sure to check the manual for hotkeys and ingame commands.

Job offer: You got some free time and want to get involved? Waste precious leisure time without getting money for it? We're still looking for translators, testers, sound artists, packager for various distros and especially an amiga porter! Just report on the bbs or on the Discord or send us a mail/postcard Smiling

News: MAXR 200 Turns Anniversary

MAXR 200 Turns Anniversary

Sal decided to lit a candle for the two hundredth crash free turn anniversary. That makes several hours of battling with other opponents over the net without a single crash. The match is still going on but the players decided to take a break to catch some Zs late at night. MAXR is half the way there to knock at the magic 400 turns barrier that usually was about the maximum limit for MAX in it's own days.

Thanks to our real hard gaming debug crew on the IRC looking to bring up any show stopper (be)for the upcoming 0.2.8 release Respect
