    Thanks for the update Zoltan. Can I ask.. well I guess I am asking. What do you mean, building a "new version of the client" Can you describe to an idiot like me, what that means?

    He is taking the source code that he has been brutalizing to fix the bugs and then "builds" it -> The source code gets converted by the compiler to form a actual program windows can execute. Once it has been "built" it can then be send to the players/server as a update.

    Not exactly correct but close enough.

    Basically, he is committing new/updated code for client.exe, the most central component to the user-side of the game.

    client.exe is what the launcher launches. If you skipped the launcher and double-clicked client.exe in your Neocron folder, the game would start and you would go to the logon screen. Basically, think of it as "Neocron itself" for lack of a better way to define it.
