Yeah well, the game isn't going to start for at least tomorrow anyways. EagleV's not online anywhere, and I'm gone in an hour or two for today too.

Ok, I admit. I'm off to go watch porn in my basement until my mom comes in to beat me.

Race submitted. I can also report success running STARS! 2.70i in windows 2000 on VirtualBox (XP outside), so that's definitely an emulation option.

Rysith's race received, The Shades, working.

Zorgn's race received, The Ethereals, but it's NOT working with my 2.70i! You must be having another version.

Off-topic, Rysith, your avatar made me think of

Well, I have the feeling there isn't gonna be much to read here, because you can't talk about it a lot without revealing your position/fleet compositions/etc... :-\

Also, I thought Eagle posted a link to download the game, or didn't you?

I think he didn't mean demo. It's the full version.

EDIT

As stated before editing, 2.7i and j are not compatible, as in, 2.6i can't host a game that has j players. Now testing backwards compatability of 2.7j.

EDIT2

Nope. Compatability zero. I guess I'll have to get i ;) Zorgn, can you change to i as well? And my apologies for the inconvenience.

EDIT3

2.60 i and 2.70 i are both okay AND 100% compatible. 2.60i == 2.70i - battle sounds (which is not really worth it anyway). So, can everyone check his version?

Carp. The link on the wiki to download 2.6/2.7i is dead. Known 'download everything' sites also have no Stars for download.

I'm very sorry, but I think the only option is to let everyone get 2.6j or 2.7j - these two are, again, 100% compatible.

Please, do upgrade ASAP. If you're not sure which version you have, you can see it on the start screen. If you can't, it definitely isn't J ;)

I hope everyone can still follow the course of actions :)?

If not:


2.6i  ==  2.7i    <-- Those two can't be downloaded, IMHO

!=         !=

2.6j  ==  2.7j    <-- Those can, on the wiki


Sorry, again

I think I'd better put a direct link here.

2.7j can be downloaded here, if that link doesn't work go there and download stars27jrc3.zip. Yes, the RC3 is important, RC1 and 2 won't work.

Also, to run it properly, you need to run as administrator and have wavemix.dll in your windows folder. This dll is not on modern windows, and can be optained on the same "there" link, under wavemix.rar. Download, open (eg. with Winrar), and put the wavemix.dll in your C:/Windows folder.

Hope this helps.

For a serial, if you didn't buy one when they were still sold, I fear your only option is to find one via <insert random search engine>.
