thomas, thanks for the run-down. Yeah, I left 'round Sept, and for whatever reason, dropped off the radar apparently in regard to the testers lists I was on, and just thought they went quiet for a long time. Go figure! By the end of Oct, I realized something might be up, but by that point, I had a new computer to configure / get used to, as my lil windows Lappy's HD died so I thought it might be a nice time to buy a MacBook, which I'd been wanting to do. <smile>
So anyway, I'm currently working on getting windows running on it in a couple of ways so I can continue developing for AQ / JQ. On the AQ front, there's also a new release candidate out which has some new authorization features built in to insure more accurate stats collections for players and for validating player names and such in regard to the AQ servers... We're in the process of bug fixes at the moment and I myself, as I'd mentioned am hoping to possibly add some new mods / features to JQ after a while of it sitting at ver 4.1... Anyway, nuff from me for now... Have a great day!...
