On May 15, 2003, Project Magma will be releasing the first major update to Myth II in several years when they present version 1.4. Among its features are:

... over 100 enhancements, bug fixes and new features to Myth II: Soulblighter, in the areas of: graphics; interface improvements; elimination of plugin lag; elimination of chat lag; elimination of the 'walking bug', new mapmaking features; AI improvements and bug fixes; optional vTFL (virtual TFL) gameplay, which effectively brings both games and communities to the same program; and much, much more.

The update will be released approximately two months from today, which also happens to be the day that the team released version 1.3.2. 1.3.2 fixes numerous performance issues with WindowsXP and also brings OS X compatibility to Myth II.

Much more information can be gathered about version 1.4 from the Project Magma site (particularly the downloads section). Everything sounds extremely promising (TFL gameplay in Myth II!), and we can't wait for the final release.
