Wildfire Games, an international group of volunteer game developers, is happy to announce the re-release of 0 A.D. Alpha 25 “Yaunā”, the twenty-fifth alpha version of 0 A.D., a free, open-source real-time strategy game of ancient warfare.
This version is a maintenance release. Gameplay remains untouched and both versions of Alpha 25 remain multiplayer-compatible. We strongly advise you however to upgrade to benefit of the following fixes:
- Ranked matches did not longer grant points in the lobby.
- Mod installation no longer require restart.
- Mod installation no longer prints errors when installing mods by double-clicking
- Mod installation now overwrites the existing mods to allow for easier updates.
- Fishes are now easier to spot on lowest settings with the addition of seagulls.
The team wishes to apologize for the inconvenience and hopes you will be enjoying your time playing 0 A.D: Empires Ascendant.
