Hmm... that would be annoying... I planned taking my Prey DVD to the datacentre tonight to avoid uploading 2GB of files from my home computer. But after reading your comments I guess I can better stay at home, Steve?

Unless u want to leave the DVD in the drive yep :(

Still no news? Games pretty much dead unless this can be sorted quickly.

The dedicated server is being worked on. We're planning on releasing it as soon as possible.

Thanks for the update much appreciated, just a real shame this wasn't ready for release as it does quite a bit of harm to the image especially given the demo was so polished. In fact it was the most polished demo I've been privilege to try / run servers for in a long while.

Just get a no-cd/dvd exe from the internet and use this serverstarter for your server. http://www.meb-mueller.de/newblog/?p=76
Works perfect on my win2003 server.

Always suspect about those you never know what other nice little things like back doors they have added, so as a GSP I'll have to say thanks MisShooter but no thanks.
