Xband 2 Social Beta Bugs

Post by Krazystyle83 »

Before you re-list the obvious - PLEASE be sure that you are running the most current version of the X-BAND 2 client! Of course the best way to submit bugs is currently through sending an XMAIL to the username XBAND.

What is the 'social beta'?
The social beta of Xband 2 has no gameplay. It's simply testing our servers and the features we have now before we unlock the other features of the client (including matchmaking, profile, and friends list support).

What are the minimum requirements?
Windows XP SP2 and above
.NET 3.5

Where can I get in on this beta / obtain the newest version?

It's not working?
Are you sure you have .net 3.5? It's available free from Microsoft

===============================================
Known Issues :
Graphics are glitchy / Not Final (This won't be a top priority yet)
Sometimes Chat Loads Twice
User Icons are not server side
White text chat error
XBAND News is not live yet
There are no dinosaurs!

Features Added :
F1 Jumps to the next song (on main screen and xmail)
F2 Turns off music (on main screen and xmail)

Confirmed Fixed :
All of your XMAILS are not shown
Music stops once the first tune ends
There is no Genesis Music

Issues to watch for : (I believe they may be patched)
EPIC FAIL XMAIL ERROR - Please send as many XMAILS as possible

Wasn't sure if xmail supported email addresses or if it will like the original, but entering one it will cause the program to crash bigtime, also as will sending an xmail to a user that is not registered with xband. a simple typing error of an xmail to a user could cause the program to bomb out.

Anyway this is what i've found so far. also if you're in the chat room and you leave and try to go back in it says it cannot connect. this happens ever time i exit and try to go back in.
