Game: Heretic II patch (especially weaker Amigas will benefit from this)
Hyperion Entertainment released a patch for Heretic II for download.
Especially weaker Amigas will benefit from this one;
BilzzardPPC users with 040/25 CPU will experience significant more
speed. Moreover now the so called "wheel mouse" is supported and visual
effects have been enhanced.
The innovations are:
- Speed. The new version is up to 25% faster depending on the hardware.
Especially users with relatively weak hardware (BlizzardPPC with 040/25) will notice a significant speed-up.
- Mouse Wheel support. Heretic II now supports mouse wheel adaptors that map to rawkeys 122/123 (newMouse etc.).
- Improved visual effects: "new" Permedia 2 additive blending mode (requires Warp 3D V4.2)
(see before and after screenshots) and full Voodoo 3 support.
