Every time this shit happens, someone decides it's a grand idea to compile a new list of bugs and other crap that needs fixing. What we get is a list of well known bugs and a list of features because some random jackass doesn't understand the difference between a bug and a feature.
In theory, it should only take him a day or two to actually fix the known bugs in the game and maybe a few hours to add some highly requested features. But hey, that's just my uneducated guess at how long something should take for the sole person who's ever seen the Continuum source.
[rant]I don't even get what he's protecting at this point. He's already given out the most critical portion of the damned client -- and anyone who's capable of using it is likely going to know how to disassemble it. And, thanks to it being removed from all the other shit crammed into the client, it'll make their work even easier. It's not like the script kiddies who enjoy cheating could actually do anything with the source anyway (See: BDWinsAlt or whatever the fuck that fruity prick's name is).[/rant]

| Cheating is bad but they are already doing it. I doubt the people using them now know how to make a cheat by looking at the source. Why don't we use some kind of hack protection thing like other games. |

because you have to licence them. they cost money. The protection on continuum is better than some of them

I didn't know they cost money. I wouldn't recommend using what ever counter strike uses.  |

If you're talking about fix.dll and security.dll, that's not much use without the matching scrty file, which if you have access to that file you already have enough privileges to abuse anyway.
The encryption is only one method of attacking the client, there are other ways, each with it's own advantages/capabilities. |

szone message in-game:
| Quote: | | New version of Continuum will be released in next 1-2 weeks. Priit has not forgotten/forsaken us completely, Continuum 39 will be released as soon as testing / debugging is completed. Check DL sites next week for details - Ghost Ship |
Seems like the rumours are quite true after all, don't you think MGB?

whatever, you know the new client won't come out within the next 1 - 2 weeks; if it did priitk would probably need to iron out any minor outstanding bugs which would probably take him another 1 - infinity years to do.
who is actually bothering to get their hopes up? |

| Note; Continuum 0.40 is almost the same as Continuum 0.39beta. The difference is minimal if not negligible. |

I'm guessing that version is more like what .39 final should be... but with another name to stop all the confusion with all the other .39 pr1, pr3, beta... bleh
