I somehow managed to miss the release of
The Ur-Quan Masters
alpha 0.4. Just so you understand, alpha 0.3 was quite stable and I was
able to complete a game successfully. Alpha 0.4 is even more stable and
adds some more features (PC intro/ending sequences, "triscan" filter to
name two). It is
the best free PC game you will ever play.
Also, the Precursors' remix project
contains some pretty kick-ass remixes and covers of the various SC2
tunes. I've made an addon for Ur-Quan Masters which contains what I
perceive as the best version for each tune; I'll post a link when I can
find some web-space for that (the package currently weighs in at about
90mb) - alternatively I'll do some reading about the new trackerless
BitTorrent and see if I can use it instead.
One thing I do wish UQM had is the ability to select a tune at
random from a selection (for example, there are two or three very good
versions of the Thraddash theme I would like to be able to put in the
remix pack). I'll see if I can file a feature requests or maybe even
add it to the source code myself.
