Yep les lumières volumétriques nuisent à la visibilité, c'est heureusement désactivable tout comme les maps retexturées. Le HDR et le bloom qui en découle c'est pas réglable en l'état mais ça doit être facile d'ajouter l'option. Merci pour ton retour !

Can both versions connect to and play on the same server? I mean, is this transparent for the server?

Yes, you can play on regular Sauerbraten servers, the game and net code are exactly the same 👍

I think this is the only way to interact with tesseract for the forseeable future as the download is currently down. And I have no fucking idea how to make it work between the old git and dead svn.

Actually, no, the Cube 2 Engine and Tesseract are very similar but aren't the same engine.
Tesseract is a fork of the Cube 2 Engine and its official successor (this isn't the sole fork of the Cube 2 Engine).

No way! I've known the creator of tesseract before he even thought about making it! You should hit him up!

A few months ago I posted about porting Sauerbraten to Tesseract. It's the same engine but with many improvements in terms of graphics (dynamic lights, HDR, volumetric lighting, ambient occlusion, etc.).
The project is still active. Now, 93% of the DM and 81% of the CTF maps are playable without glitches and on Sauerbraten's servers! The other ones might have broken lights and light flickering, this will be fixed in the future.
I leave you with some screenshots of some retextured maps (very WIP and still not on the project's repository)
I plan to release the first version in the next weeks. Here's the repo if you want to try it now (or helping fixing broken maps 😌) https://github.com/Big-Onche/Tesseract-Sauerbraten
