Hi everyone. Normally I'd be posting this on the ubergames forums, but, well, they're down. How long has it been since ioEF 1.37?
I have been busy working on ioquake3 and have only recently updated my Elite Force patches, see
http://thilo.kickchat.com/efport-progressThere are LOADS of changes and improvements since my last official version, 1.37
To those who don't know what ioef is: ioCow and rpgxEF are based on my work which turns the
ioquake3 engine into an Elite Force engine.
This is but a small list of what this new holomatch engine does for you:
- Native support for anaglyph and quad-buffered 3d-stereo rendering
- IPv6 support
- VoIP support, with speakers correctly placed in 3d space
- Native Windows 64 bit support, no 32 bit emulation
- Fast UDP downloads, even Ravensoft's original clients will now download up to 100 times as fast (though they cannot download files larger than 32Megabytes)
- Tons of bugfixes and improvements
This is in addition to the manyfold improvements of my last ioEF 1.37 release.
I'd appreciate it if you could try this out for me. This is only a release candidate, not a stable version, so don't expect everything to run flawlessly out of the box.
How to install:
- select your operating system
- Download all files listed under that operating system, and copy them to your EliteForce folder
- Run the .exe file!
