#Uzdoom
Major evolution in the GZDoom community tonight - the regular contributors finally had enough of the project lead, who had been very hard to work with for a long time. He dug in and told them "If you don't like it, go and make your own fork."

UZDoom is now live here.

It's recently come to my attention that someone made a fake UZDoom website. DO NOT CLICK IT!

The only official website for UZDoom is ZDoom dot org and the ONLY official place to get future UZDoom downloads would be the official UZDoom Github page!

Stay safe out there y'all

Whew. Folks continue to do some gorgeous stuff with the UZDoom (formerly GZDoom) engine.

There's some baked lighting going on here (soon to be a stock feature in UZDoom) which pushes it beyond what you'd expect normally.
