The time has come - the much longed for Version 0.25 of Operation Peacekeeper is ready to launch! The client files are available as a torrent download and for all the server admins out there we also release the server files.

Unlike the server download the torrent is protected by a password. This password will be revealed with the upcoming official release.

Download the Torrent

To download a torrent you need a BitTorrent client. You can find a list of BitTorrent clients on Wikipedia. We wanted to thank Flüstertüte and TS-rent for providing the Torrent-Tracker to us.

Due to some technical issues with the Windows server files where we are still working at we can release only the Linux server files for now.

Download the Linux-Server

Serbians are now speaking serbian! Except: that what the soldiers are yelling when you're standing right next to them. Unfortunately three of the four people that recorded those voices cancelled further cooperation in late february/ early january because Germany accepted Kosovos surpremacy.

But the airstripe in the middle of the map will be a crucial point, because there is a Anti-tank chopper waiting for a skilled pilot. But enough for now. As you know pictures say more than thousands words:
