Alien Arena 7.52 has been released, and while it was a long wait, we think you'll find it was worth being patient. The new version boasts a host of new and updated content as well as a new stats account system, renderer updates/improvements/bugfixes, and a new game mode, Insta-Rockets. Four brand new levels have been introduced, as well as a new violator model, updated player skins with glow effects, all new powerup models(including the new megahealth!), and updates to a variety of other skins and textures.
Some of the new features include:
- Many new models and textures
- Four exciting new levels
- Vegetation shadowmapping
- Account system for stats
- Improved stats algorithms
- Various improved effects
- Decoupled renderer from client frame code
- Variety of bug fixes and code cleansing
- Changes to the bot code and anti-camp
- New Insta-Rockets game mode
- Mouse input code cleaned up
- IQM Version 2 support

lookin sexy :]
Is there ever going to be an update to the menus? Maybe it's because I play it in 1920x1080, but the options text and server browser text is almost unreadable because there's large spaces between every letter.
Yeah, the menus are one of the top priorities. The guy that was working on them took ill, so his work was never completed. Currently we are waiting for idtech4 to come out, and will likely poach that menu system into our engine.
Oh, and try changing to one of the true type fonts, it should be quite readable.
Please upload it to desura :)
It's already there :)
Love this game, keep up the great work.
