Microsoft Direct3D OpenGL wrapper from system driver I assume
install proper video drivers from your manufacturer.

Well, my PC is going asleep now a little bit - say: my server is offline again. I myself connected from time to time but only once got a short round against another human player - who of course pawned me at once :-P
To cut a long story short - we definetly need more OA-Players around here. Maybe we could arrange something like WoPs "Padday" using the comments or maybe even doodle or something similar to arrange a certain date (and time) when to meet and frag each other online ...
Wohoo, seems like the new version is finally on desura, big thanks to those involved!
Yes, it took quite a while - next time a new version is released, we'll make sure, it arrives a little earlier ;-)
How about celebrating this (re)release by setting up some dedicated servers at the weekend? We could perhaps name them "{desura}whatever_you_like", so people know they are joining other desura players ...
What do you think?
Are there any Sorlags or equivalent in this?
Liz
Sorlag is an 'alien lizardy' archetype, Liz is just a basic anthropomorphic lizard.
OA3 could turn it to a dragon or something. maybe.
Someone else will need to take on Desura maintenance. I don't have the time or resources to do so myself.
What exactly has to be done to get the new version distributed over Desura? I'm no Gamedeveloper, so i can't really figure out, how much time i would have to spend on maintenance ...
