R63:- Is There 2 Versions?
« on: January 23, 2004, 11:40:00 AM »

Hi Guys,

Is there two versions of R63 out there? I have a brought retail PAL version and I can see/join most games with RC2&3. Sometimes I will come across a hosted game that I can't join, and for the life of me I can't figure it out. Looking at some of the chat going on in the chat windows it seems that there is a version that can't see the retail version  :blink: if this is the case then it makes sense, but then I am at a loss as to why they don't buy the retail version so they can play with everyone.

Cheers

Yes i too have experienced this and believe it is to do with there being a 'pirated' version out there that isn't actually allowing retail to see it... btw how come you just idle in the room instead of talking?  <

That way whenever I feel like a game I can fire up one of my boxes and kai is already running. Unfortunately the side effect is that people think I am in or looking for a game all the time, and don't understand why I don't chat back to them.

Would be nice to be able to set your status while in a room i.e Gone for a smoke, On the phone or Away from Keyboard.
