Been waiting for this one for a while! Hopefully there'll be less cheaters with this version because they really spoil this great game!

Thanks PA.c Dev Team!

Could you try to redownload and check that the digital signature is intact (or that the md5sum matches the one on the AssaultCube Portable page)?

I don't see anything of the game because there is a WinXP error immediately.

Its not a biggie though.

Can you share what it was?
Maybe others have the same problem...

I was trying to connect over LAN yesterday but it seems that I can only connect to LAN not set up a LAN. Or at least if I can set up a network, I don't know how. Can anyone tell me how to set up LAN?

Assaultcube has a server exe but as no one requested it I saved myself the work of making it portable too. I'll take a look at it but I think it wont work as I use the latest PAL and it doesn't support 2 separate exes. So I'd have to go back to the old way which I don't really want.

Can't you release it as a separate package? or would that duplicate a lot of files? Maybe as a pretend "plugin PAF" like Lame? Not many people want/need the server component. I personally have never tried it because I have no friends! Biggrin (I usually play online)
