OpenLieroX
Hi,
We just made a new release: OpenLieroX 0.58 beta9 I don't know if you have heard of the game, it's basically a Liero clone (Liero is kind of realtime Worms), based on Liero Extreme. If you know of OpenLieroX, the 0.58 branch has many new features and is a major new version. Most important updates of 0.58 beta1-9: - Hide & Seek, Capture The Flag, Race / Team Race gamemodes - infinite maps - game size factor (you can make everything bigger or smaller) - possibility to disable minimap - support for Commander Keen 1-3 levels - air jumping as an optional feature - worm speed/damage/shield/friction factor and projectile friction factor - ingame console can be used everywhere, also in menu and is much more advanced, many new commands, better autocompletion - IRC support (for global chatting) - new game options dialog - dedicated server becomes useable - improved connect-during-game - more stable network (CChannel3) - hit/damage yourself/teammembers can be enabled/disabled (aka friendly fire on/off) - and, as usual, many further fixes which I don't want to list here There are Debian/Ubuntu packages for i386/amd64, the sources (of course), a MacOSX Universal binary and a Windows package. We also provide a Gentoo ebuild. All the downloads are here: http://www.openlierox.net/downloads/ More details: http://www.openlierox.net/forum/inde...c,12642.0.html As an addition, if you have any problems with that 0.58 beta version, there is also a more stable update to 0.57. Look at the homepage for more information. Greetings, Albert |
