| Well, I tried it under Windows, and it didn't work. Anyway, it works well on Linux (Debian). |

hmm what error did ya get with the windows version?
and yes it is a pretty slow upload, if they ran it on abyss they wouldnt have that problem =)
like i said its still in beta, which means theres still lots of room for improvments and extras, and they way the developers have it is that anyone can change how the game will turn out in the end |

| lowering the ingame grapghics settings helps with this, since the game uses alot of higher end grapghics, also some of those people running a server dont know much about hosting them since they lag quite a bit...should have read my tutorial on it... |
