I do not know if this is exactly news, but it is definitely news for me.
http://dev.etlegacy.com/I only tested it for half an hour today, but so far I can say it is absolutely fantastic.
The game starts so fast, my FPS rate is so much better, the vid restart / minimize function with "Alt+Enter" works so smoothly you do not need a special program anymore,... it even SOUNDS better in my opinion.
BUT BEWARE, THIS IS NOT YET A STABLE RELEASE!If you want to test it, you can download it here:
http://www.etlegacy.com/index.php?r=etlcontrol/release/downloadYou will only need the binaries file, as most of you already have ET installed and make sure to read the installation guides:
http://dev.etlegacy.com/projects/etlegacy/wiki/Windowshttp://dev.etlegacy.com/projects/etlegacy/wiki/Linuxhttp://dev.etlegacy.com/projects/etlegacy/wiki/Mac_OS_XDO NOT OVERWRITE THE EXISTING ET INSTALLATION!
USE DIFFERENT FOLDER!I use Windows and additionally to copying the "pak0.pk3, pak1.pk3 and pak2.pk3 files" to "My Documents\WolfETL\etmain" I had to copy the "ui_mp_x86.dll" file to "My Documents\WolfETL\legacy".
Note:
"pak0.pk3, pak1.pk3, pak2.pk3" and "ui_mp_x86.dll" are found in your normal etmain folder.
Also make sure your firewall doesn't block the program.
ET is like a cockroach, it simply refuses to die!
