    Hello !
    We tried the Multiplayer-Modus of Warzone at our Meeting in Kiel/Germany today...
    The Problem ist, when the MP-Game ist started with 2 Players (Host and 1 Client)
    the client-players Units will explode at the first "move" he did. So it's unplayable...
    Anyone got other results or some tips ?

    BTW: Thanks to the coder for this nice port :-)

    It won't work on bigendian architectures for now. WZ2100 was only designed for x86 in the first place, and multiplayer is one of the things that hasn't been fixed yet. There's a ppc macos guy in the team, so let's just hope he'll fix that soon.

    Seems there is a new version (2.0.7) of Warzone available: http://wz2100.net/
    Don't know, if the MP-Bug is fixed... Any chance to get a updated MOS-Version ?

    Please :)

    They fixed a lot of bugs, but not the multiplayer issue. As it's an endianess issue, only the mac (ppc) developer would have an interest in fixing it, it seems. :)

    Anyway, i can upload it in a few days as it will have at least fixed music support (they removed mp3 support since the last version, and the playlist bug is still there, but i fixed it myself).

    I check wz2100 svn status from time to time, and atm, they still haven't fixed some important issues such as netplay on big endian architectures.

    I built some versions in the meantime, but didn't release them so far, especially because a tester reported it could kill (!!) his partition, which is rather weird as there isn't anything written during the test by wz2100, but well, i don't want to take the risk (even though i completed the game with the very same version without any problem).

    We have the biggest Amiga/Pegasos Meeting in nothern Germany, maybe the biggest Meeting in Germany.
    We have about 50 Machines most of them are Pegasos.
    We have some Devs, like Guido Mersmann(Geit) and others coming to show their Software to us.
    Beside that we have many fun playing Q3 or other Games in the LAN. And it would be more fun to play Warzone in the Lan.
