[size=10pt]Dear players.[/size]I would like to announce here an OLX version, which I had since the 12th of February, 2007, and which is a really stable version. It had bugs, but they are fixed now.
Big thanks to
Karel Petranek, aka.
Dark Charlie for that.
Originally, I'd asked him to fix it with me, because of the high amount of mostly oldschool players, who do not like betas, which 's game style differs from the old 0.56b. I could name here a lot of players, but this topic is not for that.
What is so special about this liero extreme?see the list below:
Details:- IT was made for those as well, who do not have enough good Pc to run a beta 3 or higher or who's beta versions just lag in general.- reasons why they used beta 1 till now

( besides that the original beta 2 is a buggy version).
-movement is the same as in the original 0.56b, but for real.
-This version is compatible with all the betas that have come out so far. No shaking, and noone shakes for you while playing either.
- It also shows the version of players who join to the server function has been added. you can get the info by writing
<version> to the server's welcome message. This version will appear as a beta 2, the previous beta 1 will appear as 0.56. This is for helping those who would want to organise a cw and do not want to play with ppl who still have the wallshooting bug -using it as an advantage-. Just tell them to upgrade to this version.
-this frontend may not be some's favourite, but it is at least not the standard one, and not Raziel's professional one either. It is better in usage than Raziels's because of two things: You can see FPS and ping in the old way, which is needed, and which is still not fixed in betas, here I mean that when you hide the toggle top bar, you wont be able to see your ping and FPS which is important to have a view on.
Also, the reloading bar isnt 45 degree shaped, so you can do reloading by reflexes in the old way. ( Maybe its just important for me, I dont know, but I felt like giving the reason.)
You can look for other beta 1-2 frontends if you dont like this one. I might add some to this topic later.
Fixed:
- wallshooting bug, (for example cannon ap,missile speed in MSFII, music blaster and many other weps in 8bit warfare.) So mods can be played normally again after years. (yeah!)
- It had shown skins more times in my player profiles, so you couldnt put superskin pack in, else player profiles lagged and loaded for long.
-From now on, you wont be invisible and are able to join and play in servers which are hosted for more than 8. So feel free to play in those games.
- When you go to windows from ingame and then back, bullets, particles will still be visible unlike before.
Yeah, this version is unable to host formore than 8, but maybe its not needed either because betas are here for that. Compatibility to play with higher user ID than #7-8 is the most important. So if you have the crazy tought about playing a 5vs5-6vs6 cw then feel free to do it.
How to get it run:This version is a standalone version, and I just simply made a rar file from the folder. I put some levels and mods into it, so it should work. But if you find odd things happening, I offer you to give it an other try by copying it to an original 0.56b olx pack by overwriting all files of course.
Download link:I made 2 download links because it couldnt have been downloaded at times due to client being crowded.

Syphalesversion2forbeta2.rarHow to install them?:
It is simple: go to your liero extreme folder, then to Data folder, and then delete the gfx and frontend folders.
Then copy the extracted fronteds's folders here. ( you can simply do it by overwriting those as well)
I am waiting for your opinions about the game, please ignore the frontend is shit, or I dislike colour posts. Edit them by yourself then. I am curious about how it acts to you guys ingame. Here I am mainly asking oldschoolers.
Future plans:I will also upload my 1000 lvl pack soon , for those who want more levels:), Thats not a limited lvl pack, it contains all lvls which are still existing today. Before you would say, why to put bad lvls to a pack I tell you the main point is to have everything archived, and saved for further generation. Who knows who will find or get inspired by an unfinished lvl to make his own, or to make it better. But it will also contain some good levels which only a few guys or only I had.
super mod pack:
350 mods is the plan, maybe it will be less, and there are some subversions of 1-1 mod as well. the point is the same said in the other case.
PS: IF someone feels like that he has some not known lvls, nvm how good they are inform me about them:). Thank you.
Last thing:
please make a post here if you've downloaded the file and are willing to use it So I can get informed about that
