We know how important a dedicated server version is for everyone and we've been trying to work out the issues with our publisher so that we can make it happen. We're about 95% sure it will happen so we've started working on it and will have it ready to release once we get the go ahead. Stay tuned...

*Note: Anyone else care to take a look at the masterpieces that Groove Games as published?
**Note: Also I guess one of the issues with server files is that Groove&DE are hesitant to put anything out that does not require a CD check.... As stated in this Post:

It's for reasons like this that we hesitate on putting out a dedicated server version. I'm sure you're a very hardworking person that enjoys seeing the benefits of your hard work...wouldn't it suck if someone stole that benefit from you after all the hard work you put into it?

Also Leadfoot Comments on the broken .ucc compression issue & WebAdmin Interface:
UCC:
I just looked into this issue and unfortunately I discovered a bug that is causing it not too work properly. We don't use the ucc compress/uncompress commands here and thats why it wasn't noticed. I'm sorry about that and a fixed version will be in the next patch.
Webadmin
I am working on a web server admin interface which is loosely based on the UT2k3 web admin interface. I am hoping to get it into the next patch. If anybody is interested, at some point I could start a server with the web admin interface active and people could try it out and give suggestions for additional features.
