1.01 beta patch out from activision
« on: February 24, 2003, 07:02:22 pm »
Thats right activision is updating their site now with an unsupported 1.01 beta patch.  You can grab it from http://www.activision.com/downloads/412.asp as soon as they have uploaded the file.  They currently only have the readme up for the patch so I expect patch to be up very shortly.

The beta patch 1.01 is now available for download from Activision.  Keep in mind this is the beta, not the official version, and apparently it isn't modem-user friendly (it will create lag for modem users).

The watch continues...

What does unsuported mean anyway?, they sat on it long enough.

Is it because its a beta patch that they wount support it or something?.

How much longer after this for the official patch, or will this become the official patch after being out for a bit?.

Woot!

I've downloaded it, but I'm not going to install it until I know what D3 servers will support it. I finally (FINALLY!) got around the psuedo-router/firewall in my DSL modem, be damned if I'm going to install a patch that will keep from playing online because no is supporting it.

Pretty much they are saying that it fixes most of the stuff but not all and it is most likely still buggy.

On the issue of modem play:

On a strictly volunteer basis we would appreciate modem users d/l the patch and testing dynaverse play with 2 and more simulataneous modem users in the same game.

Thank you,

  Or more importantly. Will the beta patch work on the current D3 server once you download and install it.

My sentiments exactly, NannerSlug.  Please do try it even if you have a modem, given the fact you may have to reinstall your game if it doesn't work for you.

Nothing is lost in the attempt (I hope it works well for everyone).

Thanks for the word Eric, I was getting really worried, being a 56K user that I wouldnt be able to play this game.  I will do some testing with this and see what happens.  I have a few other players I know on 56K and advise after its tested a few million times lol!

This would really suck, me being a D3 admin and not even be able to play on my own dyna.

A new D3 server will be available very soon (tonight).

Some admins already have it.

Thanks,

Looks like a work-around for the "one-patch only" issue to me.

Activision is only gonna release one "official" patch.  They can release all the betas they want.
