With that title I'd have expected Arcomage. Pass.

Paradox bought Haemimont this year. Some interns probably banged this patch out in a few months.

Jagged Alliance truly is cursed.

Paradox double-dip? That's a "hell no".

Many developers leave GZDoom due to leader conflicts and fork it into UZDoom

Going by memory Graf didn't much care for implementing id24 after the Night Dive port, but also didn't seem to mind if someone else felt otherwise... Depends on who sticks with GZdoom, I guess.

@dpanter: dgvoodoo? Last I checked that still didn't reproduce everything, but, admittedly, I haven't looked at it for a while.

Edit: ah, the Enhanced mod. Yeah, I skipped that one once I saw PS3 textures in there.

Yeah, that's promising, but apparently moving shadows are a separate issue - those needed the right Nvidia GPU (within 2 generations, I think) and correct drivers to render properly.

Early Splinter Cells are a massive PITA in this regard, and even assuming Pandora is now fixed SC1 is still locked to GF3-GF4 (none of which is that great at running this game at a decent framerate, funnily enough. Hello, 800x600). One of the reasons I keep old parts around.

Did they implement a proper fix for rendering those shadows, or are we still forced to use decades-old GeForce cards?

Wow, I remember Outlive. Not very fondly, mind you, competition was very tight back then.

Now, where's that Atrox remaster?

Broken Sword II: The Smoking Mirror - Reforged announced from Revolution Software

It's a pre-order scheme and we all (should, by now) know it. They'll also be finishing development way past release date. I like Revolution, I love these games, but "not a sure thing" + Kickstarter not yet live in October with an "early 2026" release date just doesn't track.
