Hi all,

the latest beta version is now available, as usual at
http://www.ttdpatch.net/src/

As you might expect for a beta version, this one again has a lot of
bugfixes, and not much else.  GRF developers should take note of some
changes to the way language IDs are specified (for action 4/B/11). Instead
of using bit 6 to select the old/new language numbering scheme, this is
now done by the GRF version set in action 8.  Please see the updated wiki
page for more details.

Please note that my main email address has changed.  The
@geology.cornell.edu will no longer be active in a few weeks.  However all
@ttdpatch.net addresses will continue to work as before.

Enjoy!
Josef

That message never made it to my news server or indeed Google groups, it 
must've gotten lost somewhere.

George's site is now at http://george.zernebok.net/

Heh, well, if tt-forums hadn't existed, Zernebok probably wouldn't exist (my 
hosting company) and George's site may not have been relocated. So, you 
know, it's all related. ;-)

I do miss the "glory days" of this group though. The forums are all well and 
good, but they're not quite the same in a way. Ah well. Time moves on.

You are REALLY a big hero. My favorite scottish too. If only my nick
(Ty_Coon) wasn't banned in your channel i'll probably told you this
directly. Ops, flame war aproaching!
