Descent 3 source code, with the ‘1.5’ patch by Jeff Slutter and Kevin Bentley, is now available. It excludes proprietary sound and video libraries from Interplay. Effort is needed to compile, clean up code, and implement CI/CD actions. The old cutscenes may be converted with help. The code was written by a younger team, a long time ago. Contributions are welcome to maintain and improve the code. Jeff Slutter modernized the code from the 90’s. Community involvement is encouraged. Please message if interested. This update showcases different architectures, with potential for further development. Logistical challenges prevented the release of the 1.5 patch.
