This is a problem with your anti virus software. Add MX.exe to it's exception list.

The trojan thing is almost certainly a false positive. Those exe's have never even been on a Windows system, so to infect the installer the virus would have to be a cross platform Linux to Windows virus. I searched for it and there are apparently proof of concept viruses that do that, but I didn't see anything about real ones existing.

Anyone looking for new features in these vs the last snapshot is looking in the wrong place. These are just stable versions of stuff that has been testing in the snapshots. The new stuff will always be tested in the snapshot versions first.

Anyone having trouble installing needs to report the exact problem they're having. I can't help if all you tell me is "it doesn't work". One thing that might trip you up is the updater will refuse to install if "zzzz.saf" isn't there, so make sure the folder you select is the one with that file in it.

The only difference between this mx.exe and the last snapshot is this one says "Version 1.5", so any traction changes are imaginary. The sounds have been changed slightly. I lowered the off throttle volume a bit on the 125 and renamed the sound files from x125 and x250f to default125 and default250f.

To skwiizgaar, if the demo you have is version 1.4, you downloaded right before I uploaded the 1.5 version, so you'll need to go download 1.5 to play online.

If I missed anyone's question, feel free to repost it.

People need to stop complaining about what's not in the update, and focus on the cool stuff that is in it.

Ok sory jlv, i have just read that to re-install the game it needs to recognise the prevous zzz.saf file, when i uninstalled the file that dissapered. But i still have the zzzvtestzz.saf file, she still wont install. I think that i need a link at least to that file.

What does your install folder look like?

krossboy, try right clicking it and saving it. Then run it after it's downloaded.

This is a problem with your anti virus software. Add MX.exe to it's exception list.

How can it be a problem with my anti virus software when 10-3-11 snapshot works fine?

It doesnt say its a trojan virus. I can download it and update my game. Then I can run it and play single player all I want but as soon as I click multiplayer it freezes then closes. Then after that I try to run it again but it doesnt start up, a message appears from norton saying SONNER has removed the threat "mx.exe". When I see the file report it says it was behaving suspiciously.

The trojan comment wasn't directed at you, it was in reply to an earlier post.

SONNER says it is behaving suspiciously because the game is trying to access your internet connection when you click connect. Any unauthorized program trying to access your internet connection to send and receive data is suspicious. By default your internet browsers and such are exempted, but mx.exe isn't. Look on their website for how to add programs to the exemption list.

I can offer no explanation why previous versions of the game have worked, but this is clearly the problem.
