Zelda Classic 2.50 (Stable) Released

[DarkDragon]

On behalf of the Zelda Classic developers, I am proud to announce the release of the next stable version of Zelda Classic, 2.50, after nearly 8 years of development.

Get it at the zeldaclassic.com download page.

Significant new features include:

• Linux and Mac support
• Extensive scripting support
• Item and enemy editors
• New quest editor interface
• Launcher GUI
• Many, many new items and features

The extensive full changelog is available here.

Special thanks to Phantom Menace, War Lord, our beta testers, and the entire ZC community for its help and patience.

EDIT: As announced earlier this year, the 2.50 source code (minus a few bits related to quest encryption) will be publicly released under the GPL. The timeline for this release has yet to be announced.

Here at last, here at last. thank god almighty, it is here at last.

For me? You shouldn't have!

Seriously though, this is a tremendous achievement and I'm grateful to the entire development team for throwing themselves into such an extensive endeavor.
Three cheers for the devs! Here's the first: Woo!

Wow, We have the final 2.50. This is just amazing! Congrats on getting it done devs!

[Xyvol]

Huzzah! Glad to finally see an official release. Thanks guys!

Congrats on the official release everyone!

It's certainly a refreshing milestone, if mostly in name alone. We've been working in versions virtually identical to this for months now, creating fine work successfully with no hassle.

But still, ... feels good man. Feels good.

Well, Like I said before its still glitchy on Windows 8, I made a video to show what it does.

Anyone remember that image that I think *b*/Gashin/Relic drew (they're all they same... right?... and that's the person who drew it?) when 2.10 was released with v1 Link handing the sword to v2 Link? Now look at what v2 Link has become in seven long years!
