Subject: MAX Reloaded 0.2.0 Release
Patch:

No patches this time, sorry.

Full:

Grab it here:
http://www.maxthegame.de/downloads/maxr-0.2.0.rar

Please unpack the archive in an empty directory (and not over an old version!). You'll get a new directory "maxr". We provided some SDL dlls this time for easy installation. Please read INSTALL-MAXR.txt anyway! Please note that the installation description on the website may be aged the time you download this.

Linux:

Grab it here: http://www.maxthegame.de/...2.0.tar.gz
And get the resinstaller here: http://www.maxthegame.de/...0.2.tar.gz

Please follow the INSTALL included in the tar.gz.

Info:

To play you have to make use of the resinstaller to copy original game data to the data folder of maxr. If maxr fails to start maxr.log is a good place to start. You read it right. The inofficial package is no longer supported. Go and buy or download a full version of the original game already.

In max.xml you can set some settings like language, resolution and fullscreen. Please keep in mind that higher resolutions aren't yet fully supported and you might experience strange graphicerrors during game. Set language to ENG for english language. Set Windowmode to No for fullscreen.

Important: This is our first version supporting network games over the internet and must not be considered stable or save in any way. In test games we made it up to 75 rounds with three players and a lot of hard contact. However keep that in mind: The game will crash. Some functions that worked before won't work now. We highly recommand to not make use of aircrafts. Do not disconnect a client until his last units (vehicles and buildings) are destroyed. Please report crashes, bugs or odd behaivors on the Bugtracker (no registration required).

Hint: Drop by on the IRC to find other players.
