I was told it only lists bronco servers..which doesn't do much good these days as all the games are played on either the hockey or sturgeon server. If it is true that they aren't listed, what is the logic? Shouldn't the users have the choice of all active servers? I will gladly turn off RSA on warped until you get the RSA issue settled with your client, however if it's not listed on the client's server list, there's not much point. 3300 downloads is quite impressive , with those numbers (if they are accurate) I would have expected more players. Of course, which servers does your client connect to exactly? Continuum has RSA last I checked..so what are the valid servers these new mac players can actually connect to? I think this may be the reason why we aren't seeing more players.. > It would be a great achievement if it would bring substantial new > players to the game (and fun too) Next week i'll try to figure out > the marriage between Xcode and CVS on sourceforge (sigh) and release > the code i a way that everybody that likes can contribute.
