    New Folder - SMP Client?

    Hey all, I thought I'd set myself up with folding .

    I've heard that the SMP client is better than running two normal console clients at the same time (which is what I'm doing at the moment).

    Where can I download the SMP client? The only page I've seen which gives a download is this one, but it says that the page is obsolete at the top...

    Also, is it actually worth going to the SMP client, as I've seen some threads here that say it doesn't function as well as the normal client.

    I might just stick with 2 console versions as it is now then, and wait for the full windows release.

    Welcome!

    I use the SMP client 5.91. I've no idea if I've ever had a failure but I don't believe so.

    The SMP client requires .NET Framework 2.0 to function correctly and it is also better on more modern CPU's.
