Well, im a belated player, who should have downloaded this well over a year ago when i was told about it!! I need a question answered, after reading various forum posts etc, still not sure of the answer. Im on a Mac, so im a 2.5 player, my mate is on a PC as he ditched his mac laptop and bought a new gaming one (traitor) he downloaded version 2.6 now I either go through the deployment to play or a third party thing called Gameranger. When we tried to play in one game he could see any of the servers I see (2.5 ones), Can a 2.6 player not join 2.5? or am I getting this all wrong? PLease help as My bloody brain wont cope!! lol I should be cleverer than this being a web designer but there you go DOH!! Paul (UK Massive) |

No he can't join 2.5 if he has a 2.6 version. He will need to delete 2.6 and download 2.5

Euro versions and US versions are all alike I believe. There are a few sites still offering a 2.5 Windows version, try here: http://ftp.freenet.de/pub/4players/hosted/...yops250_win.exe . I got about 100-120k download speeds which would take about 2 hours to D/L. I have seen another one a few weeks ago and I'll look it up for you if that link is no good. Also, don't use gameranger. It's crap. The in-game deployment browsers is 100x better for AA than GR's serverlist is. |

May I add that it is not all 2.5 servers I believe..I think that browers updated...but dono Ya you can't even down play using a IP..even if its a older map.. But you can run 2 versions...when 2.6 came out I redownloaded 2.3..for fun and their was like 7 servers amd about 20-30 people on at the most. We should have a 2.3 party some time...get a link to 2.3 and then DL it ahead of time and then invade down their...what would the look on the guys faces be when we come with 50-70 honors and just anialate them ..boom boom
