Lidas Rosters 2009/10 - Version 2.0 out now!

Post by **Lidas** » Sun Nov 08, 2009 2:49 pm

I'm a perfectionist, and could keep working on the database for months and months, and still come up with new things I want to change and add. Since the NHL season is up and running, I figured it's about time to release version 2.0. A lot has been changed from version 1.3, and I hope you'll all enjoy it.

By the way, I'm accepting PayPal donations to fund a new computer in order to make it easier to work future EHM projects. My PayPal ID is danielahlund@yahoo.co.jp

The work continues with version 2.1

Enjoy the database and happy gaming!

Time for me to go to bed. I spent 30 hours on the DB this weekend, so I think I deserve some rest...

Hopefully Archie will upload the DB soon.

Great cinema....

Had I known this, I would have bothered me to. If it is ok for you, then I would work the next 2 weeks at your update and revised the DEL. Then you'd have to wait for the processing of your 2.1 upgrade.

Thanks, I can't wait to try it. If it's anything like last year's, it's going to get me hours of gameplay.

Thank you so, so, SO much

Cool update. I'm sure this one will have 500 downloads after first week.

The original 2006/07 database is slowly going to be "classic" like the pens66' one.

Simply EPIC update!

In my opinion, and this is not to take anything away from the researchers who have done a great job, but I think he is singlehandedly keeping the game alive.

just a quick question for anybody who can answer it.i recently changed over computers and re-installed the game on the new computer,just wondering if i have to re-install any of the patches or the unfake database before i play it,or does ur new 2.0 already replace any of the files that those updates would have?just making sure i dont get the dreaded 2012 crash........come to think of it,isnt that when the world is supposed to end?maybe the great ehm can tell the future too!

Post by **McQwak** » Sun Nov 08, 2009 7:13 pm

So does anyone know the timing of the next challenge? Is it worth playing our private games with Lidas2.0 for a few weeks/months? Thanks.

Hi TheHab. All you need to do is install patch 3.0.4 and that's it.
