Project Wildfire Mods coming to OLR

I agree Cliff and you had no idea how upsetting that was.  I learned
you never go based on what a programmer tells you unless you have it
in your hands and test it before you say anything.  They had a few
issues that was unresolved and took a lot longer than expected.
Myself and some of the members have been testing the new software and
it works great.  I can say now being that we are testing it, the new
site will be launched soon.

I put the firewall check mark on XP and even on my notebook since I
have a wireless linksys router, I closed my ports and put on java sun
and was able to connect where before you couldn't.

You can also upload up to 4 cars and use a preference tab and select
between 4 cars before you race.

You can place a description of your race like "OSCAR Freedom Cup" so
it's easier to tell which race it is.

When you click on the start button after you created your race, it
takes you immediately into your race and not the Menu screen like it
does now.

You can right click on a race and select "show racers on track" so you
would know who is in the race.  We are working on getting it to show
who is leading the race when you do that, but for now that will show
who is in the race.

Instead of just chat in each area you can also voice chat in different
arenas.

There are many other improvements to the site and applet.  As a matter
of fact, we will be showing the Flashpoint Monthly Shootout on OLRtv
this Saturday.
