DiabloRL 0.5.0 released!
20 May 2013
Take heed and bear witness to the truths that lie herein, for they are the story of DiabloRL! After nearly three years of (development) Hell, DiabloRL 0.5.0 finally sees daylight!
Significant game expansion awaits the weary travelers with access opened to the Catacombs and Cave levels. Hell is as yet closed, but fear not, soon you’ll be able to defeat the Lord of Terror also!
Visually, we have a beautiful pseudoconsole now, with colored levels following the original. In the sound department, DiabloRL can directly play sounds and music from your Diablo installation – just edit config.lua and pass it the path to DIABDAT.MPQ and you’re set!
Head to the downloads section, or read further for the detailed changelog!
And while you’re at it, follow us on Facebook and Twitter to stay tuned on the day of the final showdown! And don’t forget to DONATE to keep the development going!
