MAXR 0.2.7 Release
One year of development and here it is. We're happy to announce MAXR 0.2.7 with many new features and bugfixes. The Changelog speaks for itself:
1. Releases
Your download isn't on this list? Check
downloads. If it is not there you may help us and create the missing package!
2. Patches
No patches this time. Due to many changes in the source and config and many bugreports we got because of broken installations we want you to reinstall maxr this time.
Manual:
manual.pdf
Frequently Asked Questions
Installation (may be aged - see INSTALL instead)
Building (may be aged - see BUILDING instead)
Important:
Due many changes we recommand 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
0.7.
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 (login with
your forum account and your password).
Hint: Drop by on the
IRC 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 irc 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 irc or send us a mail/postcard
