Halo PC/CE 1.09 Compatibility Patch Released!

[sleepy1212]

The 1.09 server does NOT seem to be compatible with 1.08 clients. I am unable to connect to 1.09 servers using a 1.08 client.

i think you're going the wrong way :\

Great...

I know right? all those addresses we have to update in Open Sauce.

[InnerGoat]

Why was this patch made? You can just hit continue anyways at that error and play fine...?

[Sel]

good thing no one is dumb enough to still develop apps and content for this shitty old game anyway right

[Sel]

Wait wait, no, that's not right.

[Higuy]

Wait wait, no, that's not right.

i might play 1.09 if theirs a updated version changer, other then that, it will probably fail.

[Cortexian]

Its going to hit the auto-update system soon, you won't have a choice to play it or not. The main reason it was made is to fix the issue with IE patches that break the game, not just the 64-bit compatibility issue.

Edit - Speak of the devil:

Autoupdates are up for PC, CE. And I believe the Mac patch is available too.

CE should let you play online now.

Please start spreading the word on community sites that everyone should update to the latest dediscated servers. (the file is bundled with the client install package; when you update your client, the haloded.exe will be in that directory.)

Oh well, looks like we need a minor OS update to permanently change the build to 1.09...
