Thanks to everyone who helped out on this release! I just finished uploading the src, data, windows and mac packages to sourceforge. Later today, I will update freshmeat and happypenguin also.

A release branch (branches/rel-0.20) has been created in case we need to patch something. Normal development can proceed in /trunk as usual.

Thanks again, it really is the community that makes working on the game so much fun! :-)

The SCOURGE Development team has been hard at work making the next release something very special! Among the many bugfixes and playability enhancements here is a short list of features being developed:

? ? ?

If you would like to try these new features out right now you can already get the latest code and compile it for your OS/Distro of choice! Please try it out and submit bugs you find in our tracker!

The server will be rebooted tonight 10/07/2007 for a timely upgrade about 11pm US CST. Apologies for any inconvenience.

EDIT - Nevermind, seems like I had to reboot sooner than expected. Welcome to server upgrade from Ubuntu Edgy to Fiesty... there will probably be another upgrade to Gutsy sometime soon after it's release...

Edit: 0.19 has been released! I'm updating FreshMeat and HappyPenguin right now. Thanks for everyone's help!!!

I started to upload 0.19 to Sourceforge. Currently the windows executable and the source/data files are there. The mac .dmg is to follow later today hopefully.

Not all the little bugs were fixed; there just wasn't enough time. I do think this is a quality release though and keep in mind, we're not 1.0 yet, so usability issues are OK for now. :-)

Predictably, I forgot the edit the "about" section with everyone who helped translating, compiling, etc. To remedy this, we should use a wiki page to keep track of user contributions. (Anyone care to start this page?)

Please take a look at the files there and let me know if I forgot anything else.... For example, I downloaded and added the translations from rosetta, and I hope nothing broke. :-)

Let me know if all is well (or if it's not.) If I don't hear back in a couple of days, I will complete the release. Thanks as always!

Huge thanks to inivis.com for donating a copy of AC3D to the scourge project. AC3D is a multi-platform 3d modeler with many features that make it perfect for game development.

After a long review process, scourge is finally up on launchpad, open for anyone to translate. If you have a few minutes at work, please translate a few lines; the gods of gaming may bless you with karma points. (And your name will be engraved upon the coveted "about" dialog of the game.)

Many thanks!!

If you are compiling from source files on SVN you may have noticed that the server has changed address. It is now preceded by a "scourge." subdomain. wiki has been updated accordingly:
This command will download the source (provided you have subversion installed):

Outdoor environments are being constructed at a feverish pace... Feverish in this case, refers to 'rather slowly'. At any rate, as evidenced by the screenshot below, outdoors mission may soon become (virtual) reality.



The only things missing now are, houses, roads, decent height/shadow/target mapping, etc. Should be no problem! ;-)

Version 0.18 of the immensely popular rpg S.c.o.u.r.g.e. was released today. Here is the freshmeat page on the release and the Sourceforge downloads page. HappyPenguin.org should have a blurb on us soon too.

As usual thanks go to everyone on scourgeweb.org, esp. to Cod for the Italian translation, Breakable for the bug-fixes, Ben for artwork and OC for keeping the site running. If there is someone or some feature I forgot, let me know!

Any ideas for 0.19? ;-) For one thing I'd like to get the next chapter of the story finished. Other than that, I'm open to suggestions.
