Wow!. They're still working on improving a video game from 1995! Can't wait! I'll keep checking on GitHub.

Is this anyone associated with the community or someone else? Crazy to think that someone from the outside would randomly decide to do that sort of work on a relatively-niche game.

Cool, saw this yesterday. Haven't looked closely to see if I can run it on LInux easily. Hopefully I'll have time next week to check it out, maybe just use my Windows machine.

I couldn't get it to run in Bottles.

No linux support.

Anyone try it yet in Windows?

Here's someone's attempt with D1 Rebirth using Reshade and some other tweaks on an RTX 4090 at 4K. Cool.

I've tried it. Joystick doesn't work.

It's a damn shame the Descent 3 score code was never released like it was with its predecessor and Freespace.

I agree. Would be nice. Can we not ask for it? Or does Interplay still hold he rights?
