For the sake of the people who will get confused by your "Carc2" references, could you perhaps start calling it Hunters & Gatherers like everyone else? It's a separate, standalone game, not some new and improved version of the original.

Okay, I downloaded Vassel and Carcassonne. How on earth do you actually play or do anything with this thing? It just is a confusing screen with no helpful information. It looks promising considering it has all the carc tiles except for the newest, but how do you play it?

anybody fiqure this out.  I made a nice Carcassonne map, but don't know how to play any one online.
They have River 1&2, I&C, T&B, King & Robber, The Cathars, The Count, P&D, The Tower, GQ 11.
The picture looks distorted cause i had to shrink the size from a couple MBs.

I was just on two computers trying to figure it out, and I had no problem getting into the same game on both -- but when I tried to pass the turn from one client to the other nothing happened, and i couldn't lay any tiles on the second computer.

This seems VERY promising, I have to say.  The ability to play online with proper rule sets is awesome.

Will add this, nice find! I hope people figure out how to use it, and maybe post a review and a guide here
