PoK Alpha 1.5 news

PoK Alpha 1.5 is out!

It was supposed to be released both as a patch for Alpha 1 and a standalone version, however due to some technical difficulties Im only releasing the standalone version. There is a chance that I can compile and release the patch in the next weeks but i dont promise anything.

For the moment only the Torrent link is available but it will be uploaded here on ModDB soon. This version comes with an installer to ease things out and it also creates Shortcuts in the Desktop and Startmenu that will make Soulstorm automatically load the mod without needing to activate it in the mod manager. It also has an unistaller.
