I figured that BASS's release with 0.5.0 was a completely great exception to the rule or whatever you want to call it. I mean, from 0.1.0 to 0.4.0 there were no free games released so unless theyve said otherwise or you have some sort of secret knowledge that I haven't been paying attention to (which is probably likely), dont get your hopes up.

There is a work around for this already in place, it should no longer be an issue.

I noticed that they added Broken Sword 1 to the cvs repository a couple of days ago, which is great news, but it is strange to do this when the project is dead. Anyway I didn't succeed in compiling todays cvs snapshot so I couldn't test it out yet.

Today I got it to work and it is possible to play the first couple of scenes at least before it crashes. There are things missing though, such as preferences, inventory and some other oddities. But it is great anyway.

Wow, that was quick. But I won't be able to play it to any extent until after Christmas though.
