Summary:
C: Modern cross-platform port of the Descent 1 engine
Description:
C: >-
<p>D1X-Rebirth is a modern port of the Descent 1 game engine, based on the late D1X and D2X source ports (which, in turn,
were based on the original Descent source and LDescent).
The Rebirth Team has spent a lot of time working to improve the source code by fixing old bugs and adding some
improvements, while always staying true to our philosophy:
<em>Keep it Descent!</em>
</p>
<p>DXX-Rebirth has every little feature you may remember from the original Descent 1 & 2 and much more. For example:</p>
<ul>
<li>Full compatibility with Descent and Descent 2, including all expansions and third-party levels.</li>
<li>DXX-Rebirth runs on your favourite Operating System. We officially support Linux (and other *NIXs), Mac OS X and
Windows. The source code can also be compiled on many other systems!</li>
<li>OpenGL provides fast and smooth rendering - even on low-end systems.</li>
<li>Optionally you can enable several effects like Transparency, Colored Lighting, Texture Filtering, FSAA, etc.</li>
<li>Thanks to SDL, a wide variety of Joysticks are supported. Also you can use more Joysticks, buttons and axes than
you can ever operate in your state of evolution.</li>
<li>Joystick, Keyboard and Mouse can be used simultaneously.</li>
<li>The games can display all resolutions and aspects supported by your monitor, including an option for VSync.</li>
<li>Besides MIDI and CD-Audio (Redbook), you can play your own custom Music from your hard drive or a separate AddOn.</li>
<li>Both games can utilize special AddOn packs to replace or expand the original game content.</li>
<li>Multiplayer via UDP protocol provides a fast and easy-to-use LAN and Online action. This includes reliable communication
causing less glitches due to lost packets.</li>
<li>The ingame Demo-recording system has been improved. Demos are less glitchy and smaller while still still being backwards-compatible
to earlier versions of the games.</li>
<li>Higher game speed will not cause glitches such as unacceptable fast homing projectiles, incredible high damage caused
by several collisions or Fusion cannon, etc.</li>
<li>Player files, Savegames, Demos and Missions from DOS-Versions of the games can freely be used in DXX-Rebirth and
vice versa.</li>
<li>Mac Command keys are now working - see F1 Help. Command-Q works much like a normal Mac program</li>
<li>Multiplayer support over UDP/IP (using port 42424 by default)</li>
<li>Even more ...</li>
</ul>
