GPL v1.1 - Will it ever see the light of day? Updates please.

I'm starting to wonder myself.

Header says it all.

Just watch out for Jack Rambo's GPal. I bet they are released within hours of each other. Mark

Yes.

When?

I guess that one word says it all. :)

When it's ready. Which includes, but is not limited to, when it (a) is feature complete, (b) has been localized and built for the 6 versions that we produce (French, German, Italian, Spanish, UK, US), (c) has successfully passed testing, (d) has been converted to a downloadable patch executable, and (e) has been posted to our web sites. It has entered stage (c) (with some of the readme11.txt still at stage (b)). If any issues are found during testing, it will need to go back to stage (b). So, when, exactly? I don't know. If I did, I would tell you. Randy

Thanks. Now, we know a bit, where, how and what. :-)

Thanks for being respectful enough to give as honest an answer as possible without opening yourselves up to whining when your a couple of hours or days "late". I appreciate knowing that it is not imminent, but also not, hopefully, too far off into the future. Hopefully you and us in r.a.s. will be spared at least a few dozen "where is the patch?!?!?!?!?!?!" posts. Marc.

Does there exist (or can anyone provide) a complete list of all that will be changed in the new version? Our old best lap times won't be thrown out, will they? Got Pants?

if you want to make sure of this before you install the ofending patch make a copy of the .ini file in your player directory and replace them after install ation and wahoo all old laps! (i do this if i have to reinstall gpl)

hmm, June 8th is my birthday. 1.1 and GPal would be a nice B-Day present ;-)

> June 5th would have been nicer (my B-day today). It's less than 365 days until June 5th, 2000. There is only an outside chance of seeing GPL 1.1 before that so don't put your hopes down quite yet. ;-)

Maybe you get GP3 at your B-day ;) >> hmm, June 8th is my birthday. 1.1 and GPal would be a nice B-Day >>present ;-) >June 5th would have been nicer (my B-day today). >Joe McGinn

The release of GPaL and the release of the GPL 1.1 patch are in no way related. Randy

Could be for me.... November 13th... -- Cheers! Graeme Nash http://www.karisma1.demon.co.uk ICQ# 11257824 ________________________________________________________________________________ "There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want" (Calvin & Hobbes)
