Hello and welcome to the DXX-Rebirth project!

This project is dedicated to two of the most impressive First-Person Shooters of the nineties:

Descent & Descent 2

DXX-Rebirth is a Source Port of the Descent and Descent 2 Engines for Windows, Mac OS, Linux (most *NIX systems), offering OpenGL graphics and effects, advanced Multiplayer, many improvements and new features.

Descent and Descent 2 are pretty old games so you usually run into problems running it on more recent Hardware and Operating Systems. DXX-Rebirth will also take care about this for you.

It’s Open Source, it’s Multiplatform!

Still DXX-Rebirth is no clone. Our Philosophy is to bring these games to the new millenium, keep ‘em alive – reborn. It’s our desire to maintain the original Feeling and Gameplay we all love so much.

In short: If you love these games and if you want to play them, you came to the right place.

Merry DXX-Mas to you all!

December 25, 2011

In the name of the DXX-Rebirth developers I would like to wish a merry DXX-Mas (which is our compability word-layer for any festivity you might celebrate around this time) and a happy new year to all faithful players and all visitors of DXX-Rebirth.
Merry DXX-MasAdmittedly it was a rather slow year for our project. A lot has been started but few has been finished. But I guess to improve on that would be a perfect resolution for the new year, right?
Yes, I think that could work out and I have to say 2012 sounds like a very good year. I do not know why but this number always fascinated me the most – I never cared too much about the 2000 nor 2010 and I am not excited about 2020 either. But even before the whole “end of the world”-predictions I was excited about 2012. So yeah – let’s make 2012 the best year of DXX-Rebirth there ever was!

So have an awesome holiday and a happy new year! I’ll see you there!

P.S. Feel free to share your own greetings or rant about my slow working in our forums.
