Today is the day! D2X-XL v1.14.0 has officially been released for MS Windows XP, Mac OS X 10.4+ Intel/PPC and Linux 32/64 bit. I deliberately chose not to release the new version on April 1 to avoid all misunderstandings.
Changes since 1.13:
- Vastly improved memory management
- Full modding support for Descent missions
- Massively simplified and improved UI
- Greater stability due to refactoring of a lot of code to C++
- Painless multiplayer
Windows users: Make sure to extract the entire archive using subfolders to your D2X-XL main folder!
Linux users: Make sure to extract the subfolders "data", "models", "sounds2" and "textures" from the Windows distro archive to your D2X-XL installation folder!
