Huhu, Stef & Kono!
Back from the great BSW meeting in Drübberholz
I've tried to test the new features and bug fixes.
My client got some updates (from 95 to 98) and then
stopped after the last one (#98: "Some Bug fixes").
From there on I couldn't get the Java window, because
every time when I've started the client, it closed
immeditately after clicking onto the start logo...
Maybe you should try out the following steps
(one of which was able to help me!

):
1) change contents of "C:\...\BrettspielWelt\update.info"
(plain text file) to "version=94" (at least 94 to 97).
After that the update should be committed again.
2) Temporily change "BrettspielWelt.prop" so that no start
room is given (additionally I deleted all my cookies)...
3) start the client, log in as unregistered user or whatever,
change to the "normal" startroom (so that the image is
loaded from the server and copied to the hard disk).
4) Undo all changes in "BrettspielWelt.prop" and see
everything work fine - hopefully!

Grüße, SLC
