  1. Wildfire Games is proud to announce the release of the Patch Release A27.1 for 0 A.D. Alpha 27: “Agni”. This is the first patch release of 0 A.D., made possible by the new development environment put into place last year. Easy download and install Download and installation instructions are available for Windows, Linux, and macOS. 0 A.D. is free software. This means you can download, redistribute, modify and contribute to the application under the same licenses: GNU Public Licence version 2 (GPL v2) for code and Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 3.0 (CC-BY-SA 3.0) for artwork. Although you might find some people selling copies of 0 A.D., either over the internet or on physical media, you will always have the option to download 0 A.D. completely gratis, directly from the developers. No “freemium” model, no in-game advertising, no catch. What is a patch release? A patch release is a minor release of 0 A.D., bringing a few selected fixes from the development version into the latest release of the game. All fixes of the patch release are already present in the development version (the future Release 28). There are two important aspects to a patch release: Patch releases are OOS-compatible with major releases. If your friend has not heard about the patch release, or cannot install it for whatever reason, they should still be able to play multiplayer with you. This limits the kind of fixes we can include in a patch release. Patch releases are prepared on the side, and do not take precedence over our work towards the next major release. We prepare and provide patch releases as our resources allow. This limits the scale of the fixes we can include in a patch release. Changelog Here are the changes included in A27.1: a fix for the large performance issue observed by some players on older hardware several small performance improvements in the calculation of simulation hashes (related to multiplayer stuttering) fixed support of Windows 7 a fix for modifying your lobby password when you have an uppercase letter in your username a fix for the distorted 3D models with GPU Skinning fixes for crashes with Vulkan and/or with GPU Skinning a fix for changing player perspective in replays a fix for an out-of-memory crash in the JS engine when generating random maps a fix for the game crash on pressing Fn key a fix for a crash in Atlas when the map generation fails a fix for a memory leak in the renderer fixes for multiplayer port forwarding package fixes for Linux desktop environments various build fixes for Linux (some sent by package managers) Thanks to all the community for your continued support and enthusiasm, which allow us to deliver these updates!

  3. I can imagine that it's a fun lifestyle. I used to know a few ballroom dances, but those are usually only done on special occasions like weddings here. And last time I danced at one, it got me into a minor fight with my wife. It could be something about me touching another woman that she didn't like. We'll never know! So anyway, perhaps I already am beyond the end, where I just don't dance anymore.

  4. @Boudica Hahaha, I knew one of those was much longer and actually a combination of three names. how could I have missed it!? In the end, this crossword was much more difficult and creative than I expected. Putting aside the controversial -but fun- technique used for some players in 0 A.D., the secret message is a true story and an activity we should all keep doing until the end. And I truly love it, so I’ll keep doing it !

  5. I know you're tired of hearing it, but I feel I have to repeat it here once more: Using smurf accounts is a violation of the Terms of Use. If you encounter smurfs or players using duplicate accounts for other reasons, please report them to a lobby moderator.

  6. I have been seeing so many new players getting discouraged to play 0ad since in good games they are avoided. It is understandable and i myself exclude them too from the most games i host cuz everyone wants to have a good game and new players are hard to balance with. I try to explain them nicely they should host new player games and they wont enjoy getting rushed left and right in OP games. But i feel bad and obvio want to help them get better and want to help them integrate into the community easily. So, i was thinking if we could make some scenario maps with rating points reward system for the new and weak players to understand the basic game mechanisms. For example, level 1 could be an easy build order for eco, they will get instructions and if they can do that they can get 5 rating points, level 2 could be how to stay calm in early cav rush and defend if they do it well 10 points and so on. I don't know if devs will implement this reward points features, but i will check the scenario builders out was thinking might try to build something with the basics i know and if new players do it i will just give them some of my points by resigning a rating game. If all the good players make scenarios with their OP strats and gives some of their points to encourage new players i think we will have lots of good players to enjoy the game with. What yall think?

  7. It is currently used in Fortress random map in my computer and hopefully, will find its way into the game for other maps too. Now, what do you think? Suggestions, criticism, etc.
