Assuming that
1 the 2.0 preview launches in the next few days
2 John decides to make some noise when the 2.0 preview does launch

What do Y'all think about having a party on Friday to celebrate the launch??

(or should the party wait until 2.0 goes GOLD?)

I can't stand how Firefox portable freezes. Drives me crazy. I think I am going to go wit this: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?Edp... for an alternative. Has to be smoother/faster.

Here is an email I got, I am wondering if it was deleted or some sort of spam/bot/hack/scam etc...

Greetings, DADSGETNDOWN.

i can't get mods from www.wz2100.net to work. i followed the instructions, but they are for the standard app, not portable. the mod is currently in E:\PortableApps\Warzone2100Portable\mods\autoload. OS is either windows 7 or XP on the machines i use. please help!

i posted this here because there isn't a Warzone 2100 forum

Is everyone appreciating that 2.x runs beautifully on Linux? Here's a screen shot on my Mint 10 Desktop.

I saw those applications from these sites:

Internet:
Digsby
eMule
Google Earth
Google Talk

In the new Launcher menu, we see:
Backup
Manage Apps
Options

PortableApp's launcher is designed to launch portable apps, so we know it's all about apps. There is no need for the word '... Apps' appended to 'Manage' anymore than there is for a 'Backup Apps'. "Apps" is a given.

The long-labeled 'Manage Apps' disrupts the interface's balance and logic. 'Manage' aligns with 'Backup' and 'Options'.

I suggest this label be changed to 'Manage' before the official 2.0 release.

For some bizzare reason every once in a while some spammer decides to do a keyboard dump into one of the forums. what is the best way to alert staff that this has happened??

Would anyone be interested to have the menu appear in ALT + TAB?

I tried, PAL, freeUPX, 2 apps i made portable, 7zip. . .
I observed all of them move their data on c:\users\appdata. Even if configured on launcher.ini
[LiveMode]
copyapp=false.
And freeUPX, even running on admin rights, wont work at all, though it run.
This things did'nt happen on WinXP.
