Nova Colours

Supports original NovaLogic server-name colour codes from ~0 through ~9.

Join Protocol

Supports the custom dfbhd:// Windows launcher test for opening the game from the website.

Classic Metadata

Legacy Friendly

Core lobby rendering is server-side PHP and does not depend on JavaScript.

COMPATIBILITY

DF:BHD client notes

The public lobby runs over HTTPS. The original Delta Force: Black Hawk Down embedded browser is much older than modern browsers, so modern TLS support may vary depending on the exact IBrowse build.

The external Windows launcher test uses the custom dfbhd:// protocol to pass a selected server ID from a normal browser into Windows and open dfbhd.exe.

Full automatic external joining is still being tested. The launcher currently verifies the browser-to-Windows handoff and downloads the Nova join payload.
