[Davidious]

anyone know where to find the "newest beta patch"?

in the topic:

"Urgent (Tesco Read) - Time Distortion Burst Bug found in 1.78"

people posting on Oct 1st claim that this problem is fixed with the newest beta patch, but I can't seem to find it to download it. it's not available on the download page or anywhere else I can find.

can anyone help?

(sorry if this is a dumb question but I can't find the freaking thing anywhere)

The operative word here is "beta". It won't get released until it has been tested.
