Hubert Cater Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 Play online! We are very proud to announce that the new TCP/IP patch (v1.05) has now officially been released. The patch can be downloaded for free from the Battlefront Downloads page, and enables online play over the Internet or LAN against other human opponents via TCP/IP. TCP/IP (v1.05) Changes Include: - added TCP/IP play (PBEM and TCP/IP games are interchangeable, see the 'TCPIP Quick How To' guide in the Strategic Command installation directory for further details - added storable preferences, set personal preferences will now be stored in your installation directory and will not be overwritten when playing multiplayer games by your opponents preferences - added 'Declaration of War' popup during TCP/IP and PBEM replays - tweaked Siberian Transfer triggers to weigh the Stalingrad/Caucuses area a bit more - fixed some minor PBEM replay bugs - fixed rare launch crash - fixed Campaign load crash for corrupted campaign files - fixed the PBEM exit bug, should no longer freeze up as it did on some systems - fixed rare AI bug *Remember: There is a 'TCPIP Quick How To Guide' included in the release. This guide is a text file that can be found in your installation directory once the patch (v1.05) has been applied and should answer most questions regarding the new Multiplayer functionality for Strategic Command. Enjoy! Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norvandave Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Welcome news, thanks Hubert for delivering TCP as promised. SC is such a good game. At what point will you say "that's it" for enhancements? A few more tweeks? SC2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubert Cater Posted October 24, 2002 Author Share Posted October 24, 2002 Forgot to mention that some of the interface mods may need to be adjusted a bit since there were a few graphic additions included for this patch. Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmatt Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 I am not sure but of all the files we host I get more people having issues with downloading the SC patches.

PawBroon Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 Thanks for the Patch Hubert. However, the port of Bordeaux in South Western France is STILL called ARACHON and NOT ARCACHON as it should. Nothing drastic but it came as a surprise to see it with a typo as I've mentioned this previously. Thanks for the hard work and dedication though.

Desert Dave Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 As originally posted by Hubert Cater: Forgot to mention that some of the interface mods may need to be adjusted a bit since there were a few graphic additions included for this patch. Have these mods been updated yet? Which of the many great mods can we still use? JMB -- do your excellent unit icons need to be updated or somehow altered to fit the new schematic?
