Cyan Worlds have released Myst Online: Uru Live for the third time.
The first two attempts resulted in a financial problem. This third attempts is slightly different because MOUL is going to be released as open source aswell in the near future.
I`m a real Myst enthusiast. I`ve been playing the original Myst since about 1995 and played every part; Riven, Exile, Uru (Complete Chronicles), 4 and 5.
I can`t wait to play Myst Online: Uru Live for the second time. The last time I tried was with Gametap and there were only about 5 people playing.
A couple of my classmates also said there going to try the game. It`s good to have a KI and Windows Live Messenger so we can communicate by text and mic with each other.

- Fixed possible timing issue with sounds that have their pitch set too high resulting in unsupported frequency by the sound HW and/or API.
- Sound mixer frequency can now be 48/44 kHz or 22 kHz if cvar ’sfx_bLowSampleRate’ is set. (Cvar ‘xad_iMaxSampleRate’ has been deprecated.)
