From c7ea6b4e74d00ebfeb2568baf0d1cdfdc206db9d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linda Lapinlampi Date: Tue, 28 Dec 2021 11:18:06 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/1] Deprecate the SRB2 game Quoting Zalewa: > However, it appears that [SRB2] have distanced themselves > technologically from us and we weren't informed. Moreover, their mods > tend to be '.exe' mods where you need to download a variant of the > engine, which is a rather odd way of modding and isn't something that > Doomseeker is adapted to at all. Supporting such mods would require the > scale of work that was done for the Zandronum Testing binaries. The SRB2 master server for the server browser (using a Doom-like protocol) has also been shutdown and replaced with a web browser interface. Thus, deprecate the game and say so in the changelog, so its removal should be less of a surprise to anyone in a later release.
