Do not install this patch until we confirm that our server has been patched.

At the moment, KAOS are updating their servers. We aren't sure yet if our server will be updated at the same time. Please wait for confirmation.

Release notes:

We've released a patch to address the issues listed later in this post.

To upgrade to the newest patch, make sure you are picking the correct version of the game.

If you pick the patch for the wrong region you may have to reinstall the entire game!

The patch is available for the following regions:

• North America
• Germany
• Europe (excluding Germany & Russia)
• Russia - not currently available
• Korea
• Australia
• Poland - not currently available
• Czech - not currently available
• Asia Pacific (excluding Australia & Korea)
• Bundled (OEM) & Digital Downloads

NOTE: TryMedia and Steam users must visit the vendor for the appropriate patch. We will leave a few 1.0.0 servers up until they have the patch available.

To download the patch, visit http://www.kaosstudios.com/ffow-patches/

Patch Notes:

• Holding the TAB key will display the scoreboard.
• Server browser will not show servers that are no longer running.
• "ResolveScenePosition" crash fixed.
• Motion blur overload when redeploying fixed.
• Autobalance - first person on a server can now switch teams.
• Player model is no longer visible when ascending steep inclines.
• Parental controls now work. (Windows Vista)
• Using ALT+TAB to minimize game will now function correctly.

As noted in the README file we're also preparing a dedicated server tool and have minimized the size of the server build.

We are in the process of bringing up more 1.0.1 servers and will be monitoring their performance.

This patch does not fix the SecuROM and Vista issues. We are working around the clock to addresses these and we will update you as possible.

Steam will automatically distribute the patch.

Did you install the patch yourself or was it through Steam? If its the former it probably screwed things up since Steam patches automatically.

Bommando

Meaning that the vendor, i.e: the company you purchased from, will distribute their own patch. In the case of Steam, it will likely auto-patch.

It's quite probable that in your haste, while shitting and giggling, you have in fact screwed your install

I do recommend that if people can avoid it, that they DON'T patch right now, since I don't know if our server has been updated. Try to keep your curiosity in check, because we don't yet know the logistics of this. I only posted for informational purposes.
