 | |  |  | |  |  | | | | | | | | We just uploaded a fix for those experiencing a crash under Windows XP with Service Pack 2. If your lobby is crashing or locking up when you attempt to enter the lobby you will either have to repair the installation by running your DarkSpace installer or uninstall and reinstall the game with the 1.482 installer.
The crash/lockup was caused by the additional security SP2 added against buffer overflows, this was conflicting with our memory allocator.
NOTE: This may affect other windows versions as well, especially those who have installed hotfixes from Microsoft. |
|  |  |  |
| | | | | | | | The free trial time for new players has been extended to 2 weeks (14 days). Note: This may be for a limited time, so everyone should take advantage of this offer now. |

| | | | | | | | This update contains some significant optimizations to the collision detection code. These changes, should help to reduce lag in the MV with large numbers of players as our collision detection was using 75% of the CPU previously. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | We've started a Free play trial. Trial starts on Sept. 29, 2004, and ends on Oct 13, 2004.
Also, Admiral will be down for the duration, and Newbie Server will be down, at least temporarily. We want everyone to give the Metaverse a try. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | A new patch has been released to address additional lag and connection issues for low-bandwidth players. We have implemented an entirely new priority based queue for handling how data is sent to the clients. Additional, changes can be found as always, in the Development Log.
The Admiral server is down for the day to encourage everyone to play the Metaverse and stress test the new systems. The "Metaverse Connection" poll has been reset, please revote after trying out the new code. |
