Bug Fixes:

1. In a dedicated server, all levels are reset once all players have left the game.
2. WON Game browser now scrolls properly.
3. Timeout errors when joining chat rooms have been fixed.
4. Games (both client and server) can now be run from behind firewalls. 
   Improvements include:
       - Clients behind firewalls can more reliably join games.
       - Games can now be served from behind a firewall. In order to do this you must:
            1. Open up the server port on the firewall (default port is 63078)
            2. Close Throne Of Darkness. This is important.
            3. Add the following line (including quotes) to Config\Throne.cfg. 
                    seta "LocalIPAddress" "<IP_ADDRESS>"
               Substitute your IP Address (e.g., 201.5.98.33) for <IP_ADDRESS> for example:
                    seta "LocalIPAddress" "201.5.98.33"

         We are working on a solution that will obviate the need for these steps so that
         local IP Addresses are handled correctly (and automatically). This will be
         available in a future patch.
5. Timeouts while joining games should be much more infrequent.
6. Performance has been improved for games running over a modem.
7. Added support for machines with multiple network connections (e.g., LAN and Modem).

Features Changes:

1. There is now a separate dedicated server executable, ThroneDedicatedServer.exe.
   This executable does not require the Throne of Darkness CD to be in the CD drive;
   however, there is no graphical interface when creating games. All game 
   configurations are specified in a file that is passed as a command line parameter.

   Please note, that a Dedicated Server may also be created with Throne.exe. However,
   if that executable is used, the game CD must be in the CD drive.

   The following are the Dedicated Server files that have been provided:
       - ThroneDedicatedServer.exe
       - DedicatedServer.cfg
       - DedicatedServer.bat
       - README-DedicatedServer.txt
   Please see README-DedicatedServer.txt for more information.
