Nexuiz 2.4.2 Open-Source FPS Released

Posted by Michael Larabel on May 11, 2008

For those interested in some weekend gaming, Nexuiz 2.4.2 has been released. This open-source first person shooter now has an "onslaught" game-mode (with an ons-reborn map being added), brand new announcement sounds/voices, fixes for several bugs, new crylink primary attack mode, new server tools, and uint16 element array support. Te uint16 element array support should yield better Nexuiz performance for older GPUs -- such as the Radeon R300 series and NVIDIA GeForce 1/2 graphics cards. The release announcement for Nexuiz 2.4.2 can be read on the Nexuiz Forums with download links.

In our Nexuiz 2.4 review, we found this open-source game offered impressive graphics and excellent game-play. The Nexuiz benchmarking profile for the Phoronix Test Suite will be updated in git shortly against this 2.4.2 release.
