Skulltag 98 Second Edition

[Hekksy]

After several months of waiting, ]Skulltag 98b has been released. It is mostly a maintenance release and fixes several server-side crashes and desync issues. Notable cosmetic updates include a new server dialog for Windows users, Maxim Stepin's HQNX filter support, and several scripting updates from later ZDoom revisions. More details about the release and the 98a -> 98b changelog are here. You can download it here.

Wonder why nobody's mentioned that the source for 97c2 was released yet.

I was waiting, hoping someone would make the usual "SOURCE???????" post so that I or someone else could respond with the actual source and the universe would explode.

Here it is, in any case.

Man HQNX looks horrible on doom textures! I don't see how anyone can play with that, it makes the textures look more like textures and less real walls.

This is worth its own news post, in my opinion.

Doesn't it? ;) Some people still seem to want it...

Of the scaling options available, HQ scaling is by far the best looking in my opinion.

That said, I personally use nearest-pixel. But for those who like scaled textures, you would be silly not to include it.

Let me preemptively say on your news post (http://www.doomworld.com/vb/news-submissions/50172-the-source-is-finally-with-us/) that my name is Brad, not Brian.

Finally I can put up a Heretic Survival server.

.

how about detail textures like prboom? That effect looks good if done smart(on the right textures) and is fast as hell to boot.

Drops my framerate whenever I get close to a wall.
