Following the source code release, an enterprising individual took it upon himself to modify and improve the game engine. PiccuEngine supports native high resolution including widescreen with proper scaling and correct cockpit display at higher frame rates. It also includes a new mouse mode and many bug fixes.

There's a few minor issues but it's enjoyable enough that I played through the entire Retribution campaign with no complaints, except that Squids don't render properly at certain angles, turning almost invisible.

I'm still working at the same place I've been working for nearly 32 years ... which kind of sounds boring and redundant but thankfully the job seems to always be changing.  Getting to the point where retirement is coming into view.

I'll take boring. I got kicked to the curb last September after I turned 65. I was with that company for 13 years. It took me 6 months to land another job at half the pay, but I'm thankful I have one now.

I'm mostly just surviving at this point. Last year, I was hired as a full-time employee at the place I've been a contractor at for years, so that's definitely a plus (and the good health insurance came in handy when I got hospitalized for a little bit last May...paid 95% of that cost).

I'm in a few Descent based Discords (such as the one linked earlier in this thread), though I don't talk much in any of em. Shouldn't be hard to find me though .

I am.... 
I haven't played games in years and barely look at forums anymore but once a year or so I peek. I'm still riding in a helicopter but that's as close as I get to a pyro or games in general. Lets see, I'm married to Mr. Wonderful, no children, still live in the same house I grew up in and still believe humanism is the way of life.

Part of my childhood is here so I'm glad it's still kicking.....
Love you guys.

Bee

Congrats on the marriage, Bett'!
I'm alive guys, but mostly on R/Descent's Discord

I finally got a job since Late 2023 at Walmart for Free Sampling

None of my business I know, but if it's okay, how many years have you been married?

It is nice to have the same routine and/or place of residence for years.
