[new] autoresponse now also includes all other nicks
[fix] fixed some bad code in download missions - its much faster now
[new] support for big fonts (everthiny should be displayed right now)
[change] change the format of the D3FavoriteServers.ini (add line breaks) and maybe add a timestamp "last seen" for a timeout option after 6 month not seen to prevent hughe lists. [change] ignored user list (in buddylist) should go under friends but above offliners.

The latest (not quite official) Version of Vortex is 0.2.3.0

As this Version has been modified (without an official permission by Skorpion) to cover some tracker issues and I needed a way to distinguish that release from the original 0.2.3.0, I called the Version

0.2.3.1

You can download the build here:

http://www.descentforum.de/download/Vortex/Vortex-0.2.3.1.zip

It is possible that Skorpion accepts this Version and uploads it to the original web site as well, along with an update to the version tracker file.

So this is a warning: Not impossible that some of you receive an update message after all those years and YES: It's legit! Smilie

If you already got Vortex installed and only want to update to the latest build: It is sufficient to download the new Vortex.exe and simply overwrite the existing one (Vortex needs to be shut down for that moment):

http://www.descentforum.de/download/Vortex/Vortex.exe

If you experience any difficulties, please open a new thread on this subforum!

Thanks!

If you are running into the trouble that Vortex only shows 2-4 servers:

Copy the above vortex.exe over your existing one and you're good Smilie
