Bug Fix: When GetTickCount returns negative number Range Check Error is tripped (Issue 84)
Bug Fix: Gaining experience from repairing own damage
Bug Fix: A vast majority of control exploits was fixed
While the OpenGL Renderer is not 100% complete the game is fully playable. The parts that are missing are: Credits, In-Game Help Screen (Its a manual built into the game) and the Graphs at the end of missions that show a timeline of when units were created/destroyed. The multiplayer map descriptions are missing scrollbars. Everything else should work fine.

The OpenGL Renderer requires a Graphics Card with OpenGL 2.0 support as a minimum. The Same Resolution option may run slow on older hardware such as a GeForce 5.

By default Original War will still use Direct Draw unless you select OpenGL in the launcher's configuration section.

Great release. By the way, what does "Bug Fix: Controlling enemy's factories (Issue 13)" specifially mean? I tried to get it on OWS Bugtracker but I have no permission to read it.

It was fixed by me. It was an old exploit that allowed you to control factories of other players if you dismantled a manual car in them (had your mechanic inside).

The issue is hidden because whole exploits category is hidden in the tracker.
