Think I'll wait for 4.5 or something, 4.0 is far too much of a rush job for me. Thanks for heads up though.

Have you tried it? You should definitely give it a go, it's a great step up from 3.x

Does the RC update to this automatically - I know its not a big deal installing it but just wondering

I think my RC2 has auto-updated.

For all you folks running Firefox 4.0 RC2 you 'ARE' using the final. Barring no show stoppers in the next 24hrs Mozilla will declare that Firefox 4.0 is complete. There will be no further updates from RC2 to 'a so called Final'. That is exactly why Mozilla decided not to tag the build with the RC moniker so they wouldn't have to build a 'final' just to change the name. Both RC's were tagged as 4.0.

Does flash work smoothly or is still pretty bad like in the betas? I switched to Chrome because of that issue, but Chrome extensions are worse.

It works great, just make sure Firefox has hardware acceleration enabled.

How do I install this in ubuntu? I downloaded the above link but never know how to install these .bz2 files. :blush:

You can probably find some instructions here

Another topic about this? :whistle:

Just downloaded this from the story on the front page.

As I stated in that thread. Will play guinea pig with this thing, again, but it probably won't stay installed very long, as usual!!

Just want to give Mozilla a few more downloads to count!! :laugh:

I miss the omnibar

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/omnibar/

There it is.

Either install Addon Compatibility Reporter before trying to install Omnibar or disable compatibility checking manually (ask google), otherwise it will complain at the moment, but it's working fine, have been using it throughout all the betas.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.
