Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" is that site to download openAL down? because I want to the other openbve installer site and it stills says that the internet explore can not display webpage. Does anyone know the problem?

Post by: Lashrathorus on August 02, 2013, 10:19:33 pm: The links on openbve.org are outdated. I will launch a new openbve site featuring the latest downloads and if I work on the source code, I'll put my releases there. For now, go to: http://odakyufan.zxq.net/openbve/ (http://odakyufan.zxq.net/openbve/) and install the files. To my understanding, you need everything on Windows 8 EXCEPT .net framework, as it is already included in Win8.

It looks like the connect.creative.com host no longer exists.
