New Beam Graphics

battleMETAL

battleMETAL is a successor to the 90's mech games, a cross between the mech-piloting of Mechwarrior 2 and ferocity of Quake. Command a massive warmachine bristling with firepower as you blast through a war-torn world.

Beams long suffered from the limitations of Darkplaces default particle system. For all its power, it lacks good higher-resolution details. 5.3.0 adds a new way of rendering beams, allowing for bright and crisp graphics. Additionally I've increased the impact-particle-size of many weapons, this should improve gameplay readability.
