23rd Of June 2002 - TAUCP 1.8 Finally Released !

Yet another release after much waiting, TAUCP 1.8 is now up and ready for grabs. There's quite a number of new units this time around, but not without removing some of them of course.

I would like to remind TA:M users to download the Rev31 Setup Program, if you don't have it - you won't be able to run TAUCP properly. Here are the files :

(FREE DOWNLOADS - CLICK ON THE DOWNLOAD LINKS BELOW AND SCROLL DOWN THE PAGE OF THAT LINK TO DOWNLOAD FROM FREE PUBLIC SERVERS)

 PC Owners (Normal/OTA Version):

PC Owners (TA:Mutation Version):

AND here are the files for Mac Owners :

When installing, you will be prompted to select the installation type. Just select the appropriate version accordingly and proceed. TA:M users MUST make sure that they install BOTH the rev31.gp3 file via the Rev31.gp3 Setup for TAUCP 1.8 program along with the main TAUCP 1.8 setup.

Non-TA:CC users will NOT be able to use the TA:M version of TAUCP. You can still try, but i can't guarantee that it'll work.

TA:M Users : Make sure that you read the readme file carefully on how to enable TAUCP in TA:M.
