I am confused (time zones?)

Duckmeister · 02-05-2010, 10:14 AM

You guys said that 0.9 would be released 9:09 UCT. UCT is GMT-0, and EST (the timezone I'm currently in now) is GMT-5.

This means that at EST 4:09:09, it would be UCT 9:09:09, meaning that at the time of this writing, PR should've been released 5 hours ago. I see that the password was released 5 hours ago, but there is no news post, and the downloads page gives a link to the torrent, and 3 other sites, but no fileplanet or anything mainstream that you can usually download it on (besides ModDB).

I'm in some weird time-limbo now, trying to figure out whether I'm thinking 5 hours ahead or behind, why the password was released and yet no news post or wash of download sites, if I'm going insane, etc.

Help me out here!

Click the downloads tab on the page... there are links there

Specter, my post included references to the downloads page, including what links were on it and what were not, so you would have to suspect having read that, that A: I looked at the downloads page, and B: I know there are links there.

But thanks anyways.

And, of course, just after I download from ModDB, I see the links have been put up for fileplanet. Gosh darnit people, I want to use my download manager! Oh well, the ModDB download worked well, and I've got it all installed and working great. Timezone wackiness, lack of download-managerness, all fell at the hands of shear clicking a button and going to make a sandwich!

Big thanks to the devs, this is really great!
