Yup, that's one of the reason why MGPRS came without the license but a
set of editors instead. Clearly the smarter solution IMHO...

Not with online play he doesn't. I'm not so optimistic.

And if the damned game is nothing like it's going to be at release time, then
why prevue such aa blah an offering as it appears to be at this time? Just to
let us know they're working on it? Fine. Work on it. Let us know when it's
worth looking at.

I believe they wouldn't have said "4+" if it didn't mean anything. Game
companies generally advertise that will be available when the game is
released, not what is available in the alpha/beta code.

I have every faith that the upgrade gurus that have given us all the
software that makes GP2 what it is today will be able to convert that
LANability into TCP/IPabilty.

They can, can't they. <FG> (frightened grimace)

Alternatively you could use something like Kali and save them the effort.
