I think you forgot the thing
about "whats new in this version"
And no portable server yet?
Ditching
We're ditching the section on what's new for most apps. It's mentioned in the intro paragraph (updated to latest version).
Personally, I think a portable server would hardly ever get used, even if you set aside all the router configuration and software firewall issues.
server
you can play AssaultCube LAN games (I don't think needs router configuration) though. firewalls are a problem for all online programs
server
Havent had the time to look at it further.
server
I tried making an AssaultCube Server Portable from this AssaultCube Portable installation since it includes the server binary anyways. I just changed some configurations. I don't think it leaves any files. I don't know if it leaves any registry entries though. You can try it if you want. AssaultCube Server Portable
Hooray!
Thanks Simeon, it was getting boring playing 1.1.0.3 with only ~2 servers running (I guess they have a version/protocol check in place)!
Youre welcome
