is the next beta going to be big or???

the size is estimated to be smaller than beta 1.1
beta 2.0 contains many updates and new features
i will release a test program in the next days (when my comp does work again) to test some new compression methods making the setup file smaller

cool, sounds good...that was the one drawback of this MOD, the download size...

don't expect wonders, i estimate the setup file will decrease about 10% but therefore i don't have prepared the 2.0 files setup ready these calculations rely on beta 1.1 files

I dont care how big it is, even if its 300 MB I'll still download it on my 56K modem I just normally leave my PC on over night to do the downloading, plus then I get more SETI units done
