We are pleased to announce that we have released a new beta version of the Nexus client today. You can access the latest build at: http:/newclient.achaea.com.

IMPORTANT: If you are going to play around on the beta version of the client, you MUST BACKUP YOUR SETTINGS before loading or you risk corrupting your settings. We cannot restore old settings files for you.

If you would like to help test the new beta client before it goes live, please report any bugs an issues via the 'Feedback' tab in settings.

Enjoy!

Major Nexus Changes
----------------------------
- We now have a minimal graphics style of the client. You can change this in the settings Display Options.

- You now disable/enable reflexes with the checkbox above the reflex information, not in the listing.

- The checkboxes in the reflex list are now used to create packages. To create a package, check off the settings you want and then click 'Create Package'. This file is saved as a .nxs file and can be imported into other characters settings.

- You can also add settings to an existing package by following the directions above and click 'Add to Package' instead of Export.

- A new simplified scripting option to send a desktop notification to your computer.

- A new simplified scripting option to trigger sound files.

- A new simplified scripting option to trigger clickable links.

- If you lose connection or logout the text in the main output window is not cleared when re-logging in with the same character, unless you have refreshed your browser.

- You can now scroll your main output window with Shift + Up/Down.

- We have improved the Pageup/Pagedown functionality.

- F-keys can be turned off in settings.

- In the case of wilderness maps, the font size will now match the main output window.

- If your connection fails, we have added a popup that indicated this.

- Improved the reflexes settings page element heights to work with a wider range of monitor display settings.

- We have added send_GMCP to the API.

- Multiple interface changes in order to improve display at all resolutions.


Nexus Bug Fixes
-------------------------------
- Alt-tabbing away/back to the client now correctly redraws the wilderness map.

- Fixed a problem with HTML tags being interpreted in the reflexes list.

- Fixed a timing issue with the calling of functions.

- Logging will now include gagged lines, and will not log communication twice.
