Carmagedon TDR2K...I thought it was to be supported?

[Dyemor]

Is it still going to be? If so, do you have a go live date yet?

Mi m8,

Thank you for the mail with regard to the game. We will be looking into supporting the game in the future but not put our heads together to add it yet....simply not enough time in the day.

It is for this reason that I cannot give you a date for when we will supported. Let me reassure you that we do take note of the games that our users wish us to support and do our best to add the games.

Thank you for the e-mail and we will try to do our best,

I was pretty sure it was to be supported. The multiplay function inside the game gives the option to connect to Wireplay direct as a standard option. Thing is, it doesn't work. Probably cos there are no servers or something.

The guys I spoke to from SCi said that it would be supported by your new OS (I'm guessing thats WP3).

I'm not trying to hassle ya or anything, but I love the game.

Oh and top job on WP3, it rocks.

Hi Dyemor,

I have just found out why you can see in the game that Wireplay supports the game when it is not in the list of supported games on the tree.

When you install Wireplay the install process copies files to the regestry telling Windows of the alternative connection availability of Wireplay.

When you launch a game and select the multiplayer options it reads the connection options from Windows. If the game uses this system it will display Wireplay TCP/IP connectivity which can be used as a connection method it is just that it cannot be launched from the Wireplay client.

Not ideal but not alot we can do about that. A quirk of Microsoft lets say,
