0.9.1 Pre

[hurleybird]

Changes From 0.9 Pre-3

• Multiplayer fixes and improvements. (still only tested at a basic level)
• "Enhanced" mode robot AI now pathfinds towards player sounds as opposed to flying directly towards them. Sound detection range at lower difficulties has been reduced to compensate.
• Improved terrain rendering, which should be faster and higher fidelity on non-AMD gfx devices.
• A number of improvements to lighting, especially per-pixel specular.
• Bloom effect is somewhat stronger, while specific textures (such as monitors with text) gain protection based on player distance.
• Reduced file collisions with other Descent 3 ports via a combination of renaming, refoldering, and integrating some dependencies.
• Restored various missing cinematic subtitles.
• Fixed the crash at the end of Retribution level 12.
• EMD homing multiplier 1.25x -> 1.5x. ("Enhanced" ruleset)
• Microwave gun damage reduced by 1/3rd, while its status effect now applies a blanket 50% damage received amp. ("Enhanced" ruleset)
• Various performance improvements and bugfixes.
