Hi all, just thought I'd let you know about a new multiplayer network I've created for playing Battlezone II online called GameRanger.
Basically, GameRanger makes it quick and easy to play your friends online.
It has full lobby support for over 500 different games and demos (including Battlezone II, of course), without the hassles and headaches that usually happen with network connections (eg. routers & firewalls).
I'm really excited to be releasing it, and hope it helps boost the Battlezone II community by allowing people to play that were unable to until now due to problems with opening ports, etc. The more barriers that can be removed, the more likely the community will stay strong, as new users won't be put off.
You can download it at www.GameRanger.com
Neat. Thanks for taking interest in the BZII community! I should be able to try out the service tomorrow. But now I must.... Zzzzzzzz..
No problem. I know how you feel.. this release has been a LONNNNNGGG day. :)

Just wondering....how so? I cant launch a game from a room, but yet it looks for my BZ2 directory...
BTW, why do I need a GOLD membership to have timestamps on my PMs?
But, at least someone is taking interest in our humble abode ;)
Wow! People are still taking interest in this game! Thank you!
I hope you didn't have to visit 521+ sites today to post that... what a day...
Again, thanks for the support! This definitely looks like something to try out.
I haven't looked yet, but how do we keep Mods and Patches straight on this?
