I think the term you're looking for would be forwards compatible instead of backward. We know Monty is backwards compatible because of the very fact that it uses the .net Framework 1.1. However it does not appear to be forwards compatible since it can't make do with V2.0 or whatever it is that you have on your machine. My Laptop probably has 2.0, and it makes no sense to me that the games couldn't use those and still run properly. I'd think it would be better, personally. But I'm no programmer yet so I couldn't tell ya. At least the two versions of the .net Framework can coexist on your machine without screwing each other up, so there's that little, or rather big, plus. Oh well, small price to pay for what's shaping up to be one heck of a fun game.
It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you with no place to go. >From: "Richard Bennett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: Gamers Discussion list <gamers@audyssey.org> >To: "blind gamers" <Gamers@audyssey.org> >Subject: [Audyssey] microsoft .net framework >Date: Sun, 16 Jul 2006 16:31:51 -0400 > >Hey Listers, I was just finally getting a chance to install Monty, because >of things going on here with my life.
