Older versions[edit]
There is some confusion over whether the first registered version of the game should be labeled as 1.0 or 1.1, due to inconsistencies included in the game's files.
However, the marker in demo lumps identifying an engine version is set to the value 101, a way to indicate version 1.1. Version 1.0 of the engine was only bundled with the teaser demo with an accompanying STRIFE0.WAD.
| Version | File date | Size (bytes) | Entries | MD5 | SHA-1 | CRC-32 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.1 | 1996-04-18 | 28,372,168 | 3,985 | 8f2d3a6a289f5d2f2f9c1eec02b47299 | eb0f3e157b35c34d5a598701f775e789ec85b4ae | b7581abd |
