Ί  The recent  PDM release  of Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee  is in fact a  BETA.  Ί
Ί  the  sad part is they  KNEW it was a BETA  when they released  it, since  Ί
Ί  they changed the version #'s and dates within ABEWIN.EXE.  We picked the  Ί
Ί  game up from the store, which you  are welcome to do as well if you feel  Ί
Ί  we are lying to you.  However, the only liars are the members of PDM who  Ί
Ί  were  involved  in  the  release  of  Oddworld.   Here  is  the  VERSION  Ί
Ί  information  from within ABEWIN.EXE which you are also welcome  to check  Ί
Ί  out for yourself with any hex editor:                                     Ί
Ί                                                                            Ί

Ί  Only PDM  knows what the information was BEFORE they  changed it, but it  Ί
Ί  is definetly NOT  the same as the FINAL version.  PDM would like  you to  Ί
Ί  think it was FINAL if  it was ever checked.  Guess they  didn't think it  Ί
Ί  would  be, since  if it was it would be exposed  as BETA.  Surprise PDM,  Ί
Ί  someone is always checking up on you and your releases.                   Ί
Ί                                                                            Ί

Ί  Yes  the FINAL CLASS version  dates are "older" but this is  because PDM  Ί
Ί  took their coverup  one step further  by matching the date  they changed  Ί
Ί  in ABEWIN.EXE to all the other files in the release.                      Ί
Ί                                                                            Ί
Ί  Since  Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee  is a 73 disk  release, we here  at CLASS  Ί
Ί  would rather  the end user NOT re download all of the files since all of  Ί
Ί  the files were not changed.  Instead, we are releasing the updated files  Ί
Ί  as a 14 disk patch.  PDM should  NOT receive credit for this game, since  Ί
Ί  their release was BETA.  The end user will decide who  should get credit  Ί
Ί  and what  group is looking out  for them.  Expect  much more from  CLASS  Ί
Ί  very soon!                                                                Ί

Ί  Due to the overwhelming amount of feedback we  got about artists, we are  Ί
Ί  going  to try  this  again.  First,  we are looking  for people  who can  Ί
Ί  supply HARDWARE to our group.  Most  importantly 3DFX Cards, MMX  Chips,  Ί
Ί  and Hard Drives.  If you think you are able to help out, contact us ASAP  Ί
Ί  to be rewarded.  Second, we are looking for DEMO's (4k, 64k, even 4MB if  Ί
Ί  they are good enough)  with a CLASS theme.  The DEMO Scene and our Scene  Ί
Ί  used to be tightly knit.  Today, you are lucky if anyone  knows what the  Ί
Ί  DEMO  Scene is.  We would like to  change that, and give the  DEMO Scene  Ί
Ί  some much needed exposure, especially here  in the USA.  Lastly, we just  Ί
Ί  wanted to thank everyone for all  the positive feedback we have received  Ί
Ί  over the past few weeks.  It's nice to know our work is appreciated.  So  Ί
Ί  if  can help us  out in  any way, don't delay, contact  us today at  the  Ί
