this looks sweet ...

at:  http://jdolan.dyndns.org/quake2world/

from softpedia
" Quake2Word is a free multiplayer FPS based on Quake II.

Quake2World is an unsupported, unofficial, multiplayer-only iteration of id Software's Quake II. It aims to blend the very best aspects of the entire Quake series to deliver an enjoyable FPS experience in a free to download, stand-alone game.

Here are some key features of "Quake2World SID":

· Dramatic performance enhancements over Quake II, making Quake2World very playable on older hardware.
· Improved network protocol reduces bandwidth consumption for Internet play.
· New physics parameters increase player movement abilities and inspire new combat scenarios.
· Balanced weapon ballistics level the playing field and reduce the slippery-slope effect of 1v1 deathmatch.
· Deathmatch, Capture, Instagib, and Rocket Arena gameplay modes right out of the box.
· Teams Play and Match Mode support, with Warmup and Ready functionality.
· Levels by world-class artists like Jester, Cardo, and Jal with drop-in support for legacy Quake II levels.
· Numerous graphical enhancements providing coronas, flares, animated surfaces, environment mapping, etc.
· Weather effects like rain and snow bring added atmosphere to levels both new and old.
· HTTP downloading for game content via libcurl lets levels auto-download in seconds.
· MySQL logging of frags and chat messages opens the door for realtime statistics generation via CGI programming.
· Uniform platform support and simplified program design via SDL."

maybe, some future time, on an acme server?

This is from the same guy who removed some of Q2's default functionality for cheat protection and released a client that would allow users to change timescale as well as manipulate cvars that would give them a wallhack.

And then to have the audacity to act indignant when his client is banned.  rolleyes

No, I don't believe we will entertain anything from a source as untrustworthy as has already been demonstrated.  wink

Didn't think you were trying to get anything by, tweez.  wink

And let me clarify a bit...I have nothing against that game; it might be interesting to a slight extent as an experiment in coding but due to what I, and other server operators, have seen from him in the past I have absolutely no interest in promoting it or trying it out either.
