Introversion

Has version 1.9.41 been officially released?

Today I was testing Wine (Running windows apps on Linux / Mac OS) and I was updated to version 1.9.41 of the game.

The following files were placed in my home directory:

-rw-r--r-- 1 6352 2009-12-29 15:30 ambx.dat

-rw-r--r-- 1 6 2009-12-29 15:30 version

Although the new version has additional features, I cannot connect to anyone else.

Should I re-install Multiwinia version 1.3.0 or just wait?

Thanks in advance

Jordy is going to kill you for having this luck.

No, it's not an officially released version. This happens from time to time, nobody knows why. Running the autoupdater again at a later time usually 'fixes' the problem. Of course, you may want to keep the new version for toying around with it, but yeah, you won't be able to play with other people using it.

Features? Don't know what you mean. However if you want the best of both versions i _suppose_ you could just install another copy of multiwinia to a different directory. (actually that might not work but whatever)

Semi-related.

It works, I have MW installed about 3 times and it all works.

Yes, it's probably that. Just umm... Do your goddamn best not to say that ;P

They all use the same profile directory, though. It doesn't cause any problems, but I thought I'd say they aren't completely independent.

Thanks for the replies. I now understand why the auto patcher wants to download 1.9.41

(Since I cannot view that part of the forum, I made a comparison of what changed between
my last good backup and the time the issue occurred, at least it will not be difficult to roll out
the update once its ready )

I have gone back to the old version and looking forwards to the release!

Oh damn, it appears that Introversion has picked up another loyal customer. How do they do it?

Magical pixie dust each Multiwinian keeps stashed.
