If you took a look at the release notes, you'd see that 313 and prior versions are incompatible. This means you're trying to join someone's game that's hosted on an older version. Lummox JR

Actually, it is an error. The new client should be able to connect to old servers, just not the other way around. I haven't been able to reproduce it for myself (all old games seem to work, including DWO), but we'll keep investigating.

CableMonkey	Tom, try hosting DWO 1.52 from Linux's DreamDaemon (versio 312) and you will get the problem.

Sorry about that... I reuploaded the binaries with a fix (forgot to change the version #s though, so they are just in the same place). Please download the update again and confirm this.
