As you can see aus-savage.com no longer shows this website. This is because the domain needed to be renewed and I needed a credit card to do that as the original payment options I was using got removed. Therefore I couldn't renew the domain and when I got up this-morning realized that it had expired.

We have been planning a new website called Aus-Newerth to support the upcoming release of Heroes of Newerth. This website is currently in development and wasn't planned to be officially announced until it was done. aus-savage.com was simply going to redirect to the new domain (aus-newerth.com). But due to aus-savage.com expiring we were forced to quickly buy the new domain and get this website working on it.

Aus-Newerth will contain a whole new code-base (some recycled from this site obviously). I am hoping to transfer all members and topics/posts over to the new site, all clan forums would be put into an archive section (not supporting clan forums). I am however not going to go out of my way to do this, so there is a chance you will have to register again. I have limited time and converting a database isn't a small job.

The new website will include:
 - An updated design
 - Support for slower connections
 - WAP support
 - News categories
 - Guide/Tutorial sections
 - SMF 2.0
 - Downloads section
 - Savage 1/2 server lists
 - Stats & Rankings for all 3 games
 - HoN buddy lists (see which one of your buddies are ingame etc)
 - Link your website account to your HoN account
 - Faster, more secure
 - Advertisements to pay for website costs

And much more...

I expect to have the new website up some time before the end of the month, maybe much later though.

Anything in particular that you want?

We will try to keep you updated as frequently as possible over the coming weeks as more information is released.

Newerth.com has released details of the new patch for Savage: XR.


I hope this solves some issues that people have had throughout the initial release of XR and motivate map makers to make something unique.

Savage: XR Public Beta has finally arrived! The release includes a Windows and Linux game client. Servers will be released after some stress and bug testing. This means there will not be very many XR servers online for the initial public release. We recommend you keep a SFE client installed as playing XR on n SFE server will cause issues with collisions on certain objects.

GameArena #1 will be updated to XR as soon as possible and have the player limit increased if the server can handle it. GameArena #3 will follow soon after and #2 will be updated after the dedicated servers are officially released.

Now that the XR development team has finally got XR out into the public they need your help to spread the word about Savage to expand the community!

Download Client:

Windows Savage: XR Game Client - [179.3MB]
- GameArena (AUS)
- Newerth (US, EU)

Linux  Savage: XR Game Client - [184.5MB]
