We know it's been a long time since our last release, the team are still hard at work on a new Mega Patch, there have been some great enhancements ongoing behind the scenes. We hope to release that asap still but meanwhile we compiled this small Update which grew for your enjoyment on Star Wars Day!

For this release you still need to have installed Update 5 after the Mega Patch but it includes 5.5 as well as 5.6, so you can install it over Update 5.5 if you have already. Not a problem for our regular users but new visitors follow the instructions below.

Also note that this Update is NOT for use with the TFTC. That will come later.

Highlights

There is a lot in this small patch, the full release notes can be found here

Also a very big thank you from myself and the whole team to Ace Antilles who compiled this 'small' update that turned much bigger and into a bit of a nightmare for him behind the scenes and without whom we wouldn't have been able to present any of this to you!
