Wir haben gestern Version 0.46.0 unserer OpenMW-Engine veröffentlich! Dieses Release ist vollgestopft mit neuen Features, Bug-Fixes und Verbesserungen der Mod-Kompatibilität. Unsere Feature-Liste umfasst u.a.:
Ich habe leider momentan nicht die Zeit, die Release-Ankündigung zu übersetzen oder deutsche Untertitel für unser Release-Video zu erstellen, so dass ihr leider mit der englischen Version vorliebnehmen müsst. Das Release-Video gibt's hier zu bestaunen:
"After over a year of development, the OpenMW team is proud to announce the release of version 0.46.0! Grab it from our
Downloads Page for all supported operating systems. This release, potentially the largest ever since the move to
OpenSceneGraph, finally reintroduces the long-awaited real-time shadows and also introduces a new improved navigation mesh-based AI pathfinding system based on
recastnavigation library, among tons of other improvements.
Mod compatibility has been significantly improved in this release, and you can expect dozens of mods that worked poorly previously to become playable starting with this version.
Check out the
release video by the splendiferous johnnyhostile and see below for the full list of changes. The corresponding OpenMW-CS release video is planned to follow soon.
One more thing: one of our major contributors,
Capostrophic, has recently started a Patreon.
AnyOldName3, our resident Master of Shadows, and
psi29a, OpenMW’s new project lead, are also on Patreon. So consider supporting them if you want to help OpenMW grow. Other contributors accept donations as well: you can find links to their Patreon pages in our
FAQ. Don’t forget to support the software that helps make this all possible: OpenSceneGraph, OpenAL-Soft and SDL2 to name a few.
Known Issues:
- To use generic Linux binaries, Qt4 and libpng12 must be installed on your system
- On macOS, launching OpenMW from OpenMW-CS requires OpenMW.app and OpenMW-CS.app to be siblings
- Shadows and the new navigation system are not yet perfect and they will get further tuning and refining - particularly in the area of performance when it comes to the shadows - in the subsequent releases
