    Just to make sure: you are running it before joining the server? It's got to be running to work.

    Yes I start it before I launch the game, and it's v.4.4.0

    When you join a server that requires cheating death, it will ALWAYS say:

    "This server requires Cheating Death".

    This is regardless of whether you have it running or not. The confusing part is that there is a noticeable pause between that message and the game beggining to load, (for me at least.) So just wait for it, and you should be able to join.

    When you fire it up, click "check for updates". CD updates *very* frequently.

    At the time of posting v4.4.0 IS the current version. Still, CD seems to update about once/twice a fortnight.

    You can get the latest version <a href='http://www.unitedadmins.com' target='_blank'>here</a>.

    You should always be able to join C-D servers, C-D will not stop you from connecting, Ever. Even if it is required and you don't have it. The only thing is that it might auto kick you once you have joined <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    No.

    AFAIK, if you do not have CD and you join, the server can be set to do one of three things:

    1) Let you join, but force you to use CD when your Kill2Death ratio becomes large

    2) Prevent you from joining

    3) Let you join, but put a 'NO CHEATING DEATH' ([NoCD]) lable on your name

    4) Let you join with no consequences. (Kinda pointless)

    It depends on how the server operator wants CD to be used.

    Optional or Mandatory.

    Couple times when I have joined to a CD reguired server I didn't remember to launch CD.
    I can play about 30 seconds and then got kicked.

    Go ahead and try it yourself, if you dont believe me. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Yeah, I found out that since I'm on 56k I have about a 15 second wate before anything moves.

    I do. It just depends on the server setting. If it is set to kick you, it will. Otherwise, it won't.
