New Version 8.95 now available for download

[bbosen]

I just published new version 8.95 for beta testing. It is available in two distinct packages. The Steam Deck AppImage package significantly improves voice comms via Steam Deck Flatpak Mumble. The generic package, for popular desktop Linux distros, (no AppImage yet) fixes several minor bugs in mission-ending logic that were preventing proper victory celebrations after teams work together to defeat their opposition.

Those bugs were almost never seen by anybody because it's very very difficult to achieve victory in our multi-player missions if you are playing solo. Only those that have been flying with others on Wednesday or Thursday evenings had ever seen those bugs. But for those people: (you know who you are), you will enjoy the improvements.

I just published the AppImage and Raspbian kits for Version 8.95. They are available in the same beta-test download page described in the prior post of this thread. Accordingly, when you go to that Experimental Download page according to our usual pattern, you will see FOUR different download options for this version 8.95. Explanatory text on that page will help you find the appropriate kit for your hardware and LINUX distro.

I just promoted the general AppImage of Linux Air Combat Version 8.95 from "Beta Test" to "Production". Accordingly, you can now download it from our Production archives on SourceForge.net here:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxaircombat/files/Choose%20Your%20Platform/Precompiled%20binaries%20%28no%20source%20code%29/

That link leads to the general-purpose AppImage of Linux Air Combat Version 8.95 for all of the most popular desktop Linux distros. It is NOT for Steam Deck or for the Raspberry Pi, each of which has its own download page that you can find by drilling down from the top of our production downloads tree here:
