DirectTomaz is Released

It's been a short while since I did a D3D8 port, so in a fit of nostalgia I decided to go for DirectTomaz.

This is the legendary TomazQuake 1.48 engine, which pioneered so many advances back in the day. You will need to be aware however that it was very much a product of it's time, and that time was before we understood a lot of things as well as we do today. I haven't checked but it's quite possible that there may be some wacky behaviour with it that just doesn't happen on a more modern source port.

You will also need the original TomazQuake data pack to play this. All available from the link above.

Yeah, pioneers are the ones that get the arrows in the back.

A lot of thanks to the early pioneers, like Tomaz.
