Please fix the installer

Catch-all for all development not having a specific forum.

Hey guys,

The installer is broken. A few dedicated newbies have figured out how to get it working but there are probably many more that quit before they get to the lobby screen.

Just an fyi, of course, but given the sad state of affairs in prime-time I'd say fixing the obviously broken @#(! should be top priority atm.

Cheers,
Monkage

New installer (R6, VC2010 Redist, few lines about prime time) is ready and waiting since May 30th for release...

TE is AWOL.

This has gone beyond annoying to actually killing the game. We need a solution.

Nothing is keeping anyone from making a new Allegiance community, in one form or another. Not saying it would be easy, just saying there's no obligation to stay at FreeAllegiance to play Allegiance :) .

awol te is not good, especially if he's the only one with the necessary permissions. Does anyone have any way of contacting him about this?
