I 2nd your commit about "N" he is really great for W.I. and is a great Mod too. "N" really kept me and other's in line making the game fun for everyone. I hope the new update goes smoothly. I would gladly pay to play your 5 STAR game or make a fan donation something to help keep W.I. /spiffcode going, thank you for your hard work.

N has been doing some amazing stuff, he's making great progress. I don't know what he's said publicly about his work yet, so I'm going to let him tell you when he's ready. I support him 100%.

This update is to get the existing WI back to functioning normally on iOS. I'm moving all these changes over to the open source version as we speak, especially so N can have these changes.

I'm still waiting for Apple to approve external Test Flight testing for this release. Please PM me if you are interested with an email address I can use to add you as a Test Flight tester.

Thanks!
Scott

I released 1.6.14 last night. It has a number of fixes for reported bugs, the most serious being that you can now play MP between 32 bit cpu iPhones (5, 5c) and 64 bit cpu iPhones (6, 6s, and higher).

For testing I'd like to see MP playing, and single player story mission playing.

Please report any bugs you see. Release is getting closer.

Thanks!

Hi everyone, I just released 1.6.16. This is a release candidate. If I don't hear anything after a few days I'll release it publicly.

Extra special thank you to N104 for submitting very detailed and specific bug reports, often with references to the code for specific fixes. Amazing and great stuff - you have a bright future as a developer in front of you.

I'm working on a distribution to support both iOS and Android devices. I'm going to try to have the iOS version support all the way down to iOS 6 :) (not sure yet what the minimum OS for Android will be).

Hi everybody. This is great to hear. I've permanently given up on anything Apple due to cost/quality. Is there anything for Android yet?
If there is please PM me so I get an email - even if you're reading this years from now.

I remember checking the old 4th gen iPod touch (cracked screen) a few months ago only to get a 404 error when trying to play multiplayer. So sad.

Keep it up. :)

Nice, I'm glad to see an update to this masterpiece! I still have it on my sadly now non-functioning Palm Zire 72....got me through middle and highschool man, this game was and is great!


Can't wait to see it play out on an iPad Pro; would be nice in the future if someone could port the level editor to OSX/Linux as well, I miss that thing!


or: Cough *Steam version*


Hands down best RTS next to Starcraft ever!

It works for iPads too. The app icon is blank on iPads, that needs to be fixed. Other than than that I don't know of any iPad specific problems.

Lol what is this? I havent played against you in years if ever and havent said anything to you, ive played like 6 matches in the last several months and all were friends of mine... I got a flaming pm from you as well.

What makes you post about me for your only post when you joined in '09 and I havent played you in at least 5 years. For the record I don't think you cheated, I have no idea what your talking about, and also don't think I remember you.

Happy new year everyone! First time visiting here for the first time in over 2 years and what do I see? Theres finally an Android release with actual people playing the game! Anyways, if you guys have any more of those beta releases, sign me up! Anyways, I don't play mobile games as much anymore, maybe some GBA/DS emulation when I don't have Internet and some Hearthstone. Currently at my 2nd year for a bachelor's degree in software engineering so I use most of my time in front of a computer screen instead of my phone now. :D

Hey yeah it's all going well on my end. Doing grown-up stuff and what not, as I'm sure you guys all are.

If you log in nowadays you'll find the game seems to be as active as ever thanks to the recent Android port, but there seem to be fewer registered players and more anons.
Like, I barely play at all. I barely even try to win, and last time I looked I was 50th on the leaderboard.

Maybe if we could get some regular event going again then the community would be a lot stronger. I've been trying to stimulate the community a bit there by posting announcements for people to see when they log into chat, such as reasons to register, but I haven't really noticed an effect.

Yeah it seems a bit hard to get people over to the forum. And those on the forum are less active.

I used to basically only have my ipod touch too. Now I have a monster desktop that I spend more time on for both work and play.

We passionate gamers may start off on consoles but sooner or later we all end up gaming on PC.

[quote="LawrenceA"]We passionate gamers may start off on consoles but sooner or later we all end up gaming on PC.[/quote

I play on pc to... but man this game has something that not many games have theese days its like playing CS 1.6... if Scott and company could remaster graphics but keep the same gameplay this game could have very high potential... i think that the game (the new one, if ever made) must not be free.... maybe 4 dollas or something... but if you keep the same game play and add the competitive mode, just like cs go did ... uff this game could become viral... just imagine classic RTS strategy with new graphics and competitive mode... and with great community... this features, if promoted propetly could atract a lot of people... i mean the game just requieres the change of graphics... thats a lot of work obviously but the main idea and the gameplay already exists.... maybe its all about fund raisings and the search for the investors... i also think that the graphic requirements shouldt be to high in order to atract more people with all types of devices, but they must be renewed... i think this game can have a lot of potential as the ESport type of game... just like Dota and CS GO.... but oh well... its just my idea and i hope that the developers are still here and have some time to read my stuff... ive been playing this game for soo long time and i love it)))
