EDGE 1.35 : DONE and DUSTED

[andrewj]

I'm pleased to announce that version 1.35 of EDGE is now available for download.

Highlights of this release:

+ wide screen support
+ DDF inheritance
+ weapon and automap key bindings
+ support for the HacX 1.2 IWAD
+ fixed a serious COAL bug

For a list of all changes, see here:

This release also marks the point where I, Andrew Apted, leave the EDGE project for good. Since I have been the sole developer of EDGE for quite a while, this means that development of EDGE is effectively over. I'd like to thank all the users and modders of EDGE for all their support and contributions to this project -- Cheers everybody!

It's been a great ride.

Andrew, I'm thinking of releasing my minor fork of EDGE and keep building from there - would it be possible to set this up and release binaries with your permission on a different site (but link to the packages here at the forums)? I'll be calling it something different so people won't get the impression EDGE is continuing as-is.

Edge was my first port of DOOM. I will always cherish it.

Thanks Andrew, for all the hard work that you've done!
Edge is still my favorite doom-source-port and it wont be forgotten

Good luck to you Andrew in your future endeavors!

You really pushed EDGE a lot further than any of us ever thought she'd go, and I'm sure I speak for everyone here when I say THANK YOU for sticking with it as long as you have!


P.S.
Also, apologies to you all for not being around here much (though I do drop in as a lurker once in a while). I guess I just quietly retired from the whole scene and didn't tell anyone
As some of you know, I'm married with kids and have very limited free time, so these days whenever I have a moment I spend it playing games, since I realized sometime ago that I was spending more time modding than I was actually just enjoying gaming.

Anyway, who knows, one day I might actually get back into doing something with either EMUS (actually looked over the source code the other day to see where I left off!) or Lonely Meadows. Que ser? ser?...

It's sad to know that EDGE development will stop here.

Anyway, good work you did, Andrew.
As Lobo told, good luck with your new future plans.
