Topic: PiccuEngine for Descent 3

[V0latyle]

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 have been running this and … I am VERY impressed!!!

Smooth transitions (because it allows you to use your system’s resolution), and it does widescreen!!

Almost like playing a new game!  ;
