Effective immediately, the COW client V3-1.680 replaces the older version 3-1.657 for Mac OS X and Linux.

Using the English client frequently resulted in a rather slow program startup compared to the German version. Under certain adverse conditions this could even lead to the point that the client refused to start up, showing a Java related error message.

Unfortunately, at this time the affected faulty files can not be replaced by the automatic update procedure. Especially players using the English client version should by all means download and install the new program version.
