Version, Version Version!!!???
 
I'm disappointed to see the Version I got Last month is not compatible with PBW. I'm 1.60 and there, you can only use 1.49 and another I don't remember.

So, does that mean everyone who got Gold and/or those who use the 1.67 patch are SOL for PBW?

What are the bennies for the 1.67 patch anyway? Sorry, I'm sure this has been covered in other threads.....

Um, I am playing in three 1.67 games right now at PBW.

There are many people who choose to still use 1.49, and that is their call, but there are many others using 1.67.

Gil,

Not sure what you were looking at, but PBW supports Ver 1.49, 1.60, 1.67, and several mods for Versions 1.49 and 1.67. In fact we were still supporting 1.41 and several mods for it up till a couple weeks ago, but noone was using those so I took them out.

Did you maybe read an old FAQ message or something that didn't list the Version you want? If so let us know so we can correct it.

OK, new probs...

If I go to the front page (where you choose between bells & whistles or functionality) with "Java Script" enabled and make a choice, no next page loads, and on top of that, it starts another Navigator.

If I go to that page with "J S" disabled, I get to the Log-In page. I've tried to log in with "J S' both ways and cookies both ways but the "Wait" cursor does its deal until I move it away from the button then, it resets and acts like I never pressed the button.

End results= I can't log in. I'm sure there's a combination I haven't stumbled on yet. Am I supposed to have either JS or cookies on?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Actually the FAQ had a LONG overdue update yesterday, so the answer is yes. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

As far as the problem loading the page, I am not sure. I am not the browser guru that Lazarus is. Are you using IE? What Version.

Good deal on the update.

I'm using Netscape Navigator 4.5.

Just tried to Log In several more times with no JS or Cookies to no avail... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

It is a sad but true fact that IE dominates the web. Try updating IE to 6, then use it. I am sure you will then be successful. 4.76 was the Last reliable update to Netscape before AOL bought them out, and Netscape has only gone downhill since then. The newest, best, features of the web can be had with IE6 (all of the security patches necessary).

AOL ruined NS. Nuff said, switch to IE 6. It works, and its not owned by AOL.

(NOTE: AOL stands for: Always Off Line.)
