I may ask a stupid question but : what is Sol Ascent ? Is it an add-on ? or
a different full game ?

Thanxs !

Here is what "Moon" writes on his Descent website:

  For those who don't know yet: Descent 3 Sol Ascent is a 5-level OEM 
version (i.e. commercial, no demo) of Descent 3 retail. It features 
levels 1-5 of the retail version whereas level 1: DEIMOS is also 
available for download as D3 demo 2 and level 3: PICCU STATION which is 
Descent 3 demo 1. Sol Ascent also covers the mupltiplayer levels of both 
D3 demos: Taurus, The Core, Polaris. Unfortunately this OEM-version 
*only* runs on a Voodoo 3 (and on no other card!!) and it's bundled with 
the V3 3000 so don't take the V3 2000 if you wanna playtest some levels 
before yo buy the retail version. AFAIK there's been no registry hack or 
whatever out yet to make it run on at least Voodoo2 but even if you'd 
manage to do it you'd be violating the copyright so do NOT mail me about 
any hacks!
