If you have not signed up for the NewsAlert mailing list (from the link on the front page) We announce all downloads there first and give those folks a head start.

Then a couple hours later we post it here. I'll post to the other Forums and usenet in the morning...

Oh what am I talking about...


The 4.5 to v5 updgrade is now available on the download page. THe full version will be avialable as soon as it is finished uploading!

Enjoy the weekend and our apologiesit took so long! I think you will agree it was worth the wait :D

Hmm odd that its not working. I'd use CuteFTP or the like and go to the ftp.matrixgames.com pub dir and get it that way.

We do support resumable downloading on teh anonymous ftp server

:confused: when I try to ftp to the site I get the following:

530 Not logged in, only allowed to be logged in once concurrently.


Does this mean only one person can download at a time?

No we have lots of bandwidth...

Just uninstalled my old getright and downloaded beta 5a and opend it and slected "copy shortcut" of the D/L link and it automatically appeared in the getright URL window. It then connected and started D/L ing.

So Get right does wrk, you just may have to select the URL manually

I am getting the download as I post!! Great thanks! What WAN connection are you using? I saw my download speed drop to 28kbps from 59- I have a cable modem. I wonder how many people are downloading to slow it down? I am actually a Telecom Engineer, just curious. Might I reccomend an OC-192 WAN connection?? :D heehee

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.... My girlfriend is gone for the weekend, and I will have the update by morning, and work is optional tommorrow!!!! What more could one ask for? The surf temperature to be 65 degrees instead of 51 or 52. I'll have to wait a few more weeks for that. Who cares though, I'll have the MC by then!!!!!!!
