Shadow's back. For those who don't remember him as reaper, he's been gone about eight years. He came back earlier this year wanting to show his daughter TradeWars and hit the same wall a lot of us did: the old proxy wouldn't run worth a damn on Windows 11.
So he rewrote it.
TWX Proxy 3.0 beta1 is out now, and it's his gift to the community. Fully open-source, no strings attached.
## Features
Thanks to the rewrite:
- Runs on Windows 10/11, macOS, and Linux (x64 and ARM)
- Multi-threaded, handles multiple connections
- No more wrestling with compatibility modes or VMs
Mombot 5.0 beta1
- New scripts
- Enhanced existing scripts
- Full TWX 3.0 support
Mayhem Tradewars Client (MTC) 1.0 beta1
- Native client for Windows, Mac, and Linux
- Proxy engine built right in
- Run scripts directly in the client
- No more running two programs just to play
