Choose a tag to compare

@github-actions github-actions released this 24 Oct 00:39

Layers: render3d 0.27.0, testbench 3.68.0.

Changed

  • render3d: an explosion inside a nebula lights the gas strongly about the breach,
    within two of the ship's radii, and the rest of the cloud with a dim wash, instead
    of lighting the whole cloud in view alike. New [Nebulae] keys LitExplosionCore
    and LitExplosionFar; LitExplosion defaults to 1.5, and an install moves a
    player's old 0.75 to it (render3d 0.27.0).

Added

  • testbench: render3d-nebula-explosion (testbench 3.68.0).

Confirmed in game 2026-10-23.


Installing, with the GOG release of the game:

  • Windows: download armada2-refit-installer-windows.exe and run it. It is not signed, so SmartScreen may hold it the first time: More info → Run anyway.
  • macOS: needs CrossOver (or another Wine) with the game installed in it. Download armada2-refit-installer-macos.zip and unzip it. The app is not notarised, so the first time macOS refuses to open it: on macOS 15 and later, go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway; on older macOS, right-click the app → Open.
  • Linux: download armada2-refit-installer-x86_64.AppImage, make it executable (chmod +x) and run it.
  • By hand: README.txt in the zip, and Installing by hand.
