(watch in hd)

Changelog:

- Weapons can catch shadows
- Added spear attacks and stances
- Glaive uses spear slashes
- Testing some new ambient sounds (especially on dead volcano)
- Added motion blur to weapons
- Added distinction between light and heavy cuts
- Added cut lines (like cut planes but for stabbing)
- Characters revert to un-mirrored stance after moving

A "leaked build" is when John and I grab the latest SVN build and package it up for you guys. It has a ton of known bugs, so don't worry if it doesn't work for you. It is not condoned by David and Aubrey but we want to keep you guys in the loop and give you stuff to play with regularly!

*NEW* If you find any bugs, please email a full description along with your system specs to [email protected]. We are testing out a new bug system.

*NOTE* Please remember that these are unofficial alphas and they do not represent a finished product. They are not even polished builds, just straight up raw development dumps not intended for public consumption.

To download the alpha, use one of these links:

I love the addition of new weapon attacks - can't wait to see armed combat fleshed out a little, to the point that AI actually use them.

This looks similar to the GLSL issues we had last week.

The Special Server Download is also an incomplete file

The Special Server Download is also an incomplete file

It's not really an incomplete file, it's just that HTTP download is unreliable. I (and Wolfire should to, because a lot of people are having trouble with the HTTP download giving broken files) highly recommend using the torrents.

I noticed there are no seeds on the torrents, but I'm going to fix that in a few minutes.

EDIT:
Looks like it was an incomplete file, lols!

I would recommend to ALWAYS use the torrent file when dowloading the complete alpha. This way you don't get any problems with corrupt/missing files.

Also, the special download files are less than 500MB... probably an incomplete file...

Could you please let me know what your IP is, and which file you are downloading so I can debug? The HTTP servers are supposed to work all the time.

I will check out the other errors tomorrow morning

Looks like something went wrong in my upload process -- one moment, re-syncing

I updated my last alpha to this one and now get this error when i try to run a level.
