This release includes support for Win32, Mac OS X, and Linux, with both the OpenGL and the Glide rendering code.<br> It is however work-in-progress, and not suitable for end-users. This is purely a developer release, and therefore some things are broken, incomplete or just plain missing. If you just want to play Parsec you will need to wait a bit longer. Compiling this release will not yield the long awaited Parsec Internet version.<p>The source code is released under the <a href="http://www.fsf.org/licenses/gpl.txt">GNU General Public License</a>.<br> [...]<br> Please note that although the entire OpenParsec source is licensed under the GPL, this does not apply to the binary data and earlier Parsec distributions. They are still under the original license, i.e., Parsec's artwork, music, sound effects, and other binary data are still restricted to non-commercial use.<p> We hope that this will become an exciting new chapter in the story of Parsec's development.</i> </blockquote> <i>(Thanks, Pablo!)</i> | Parsec Demo build 0197 | updated | Parsec Demo |
