BTW a couple of people so far have had a launch error with the demo: "Demo failed to launch, X3DAudio1_6.dll was not found" You need to make sure you have the latest Directx 9 Redistributable installed: http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...009_redist.exe

Just a heads-up: Windows built in Zip utility (compressed folders) is not that up to date.

Download something like the free 7-zip utility (integrates fully with Windows right click menu) and you'll find those zips opening up just fine.

Hopefully this will help most people having 'corruption' problems...

Demo will be released next week, I expect monday or tuesday. We are now testing it, as we cut a lot of data and landscape it's quite difficult to not forget anything. Size will be around 2 GB.

The demo'll come out, tomorrow,
Bet your bottom dollar, that tomorrow,
There'll be demo,

Just thinkin' about, tomorrow,
Clears away the cobwebs and the sorrow, till' there's none,

When I'm stuck with a day, that's grey and lonely,
I just stick out my chin, and grin, and say,

Oh, the demo'll come out tomorrow,
So you gotta' hang on till' tomorrow,
Come what may.

Tomorrow tomorrow, I love you tomorrow,
Your'e only a day away,

The demo'll come out, tomorrow,
Bet your bottom dollar, that tomorrow,
There'll be demo,

Probably not. BIS said 1.02 will be released 19-20 this month, and even then they were not sure about if the patch will fit everything or not. But I hope for a better version.

wow, 2 gigs for a demo? That must be some kind of a record?

Praise the IT lords for broadband!

Certainly it's sizable, but nothing unheard of. Nowadays most graphically demanding games have demos from 1 gigs upwards.
