Known Issues

32 bit Operating Systems can run out of memory sometimes. We’re still optimizing this.
Some users have trouble setting the video to higher resolutions like 1920×1080 or 1920×1200 as the list appears to long. The work around is to use your keyboard up and down arrow to reach these.

Hey Guys!
The showstopper was a bug where when clients connected to a person not running a dedi and they were not near the serverhost player, zombies wouldn't attack. It's been that way a few months but we fixed it anyway. Final testing now.... cross fingers, say prayers.....

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

Things are looking good for a release this weekend (as early as tomorrow) WOOHOO!!!
