Quake2Forge is a stable and portable Quake II engine project that aims to enhance gameplay experience.
QuakeForge is based on id Software's legendary Quake and QuakeWorld game engine, making it a 3D graphics game engine that's designed to take your gaming experience to the next level. The goal of this project is to improve the engine and make it accessible to as many players as possible.
One of the biggest issues facing players today is the rampant cheating that occurs on many larger servers. It's become such a serious problem that it can be hard to find a good game. The developers of QuakeForge are working hard to fix these issues at the engine level to ensure that players can enjoy fair gameplay.
Of course, none of this is possible if you can't play with other clients and servers. That's why QuakeForge is working with QSG, a group made up of representatives from nearly every known Quake source project, to make sure that our clients and servers run with other clients and servers. This ensures that everyone can play together, regardless of which project they're using.
In addition to making the engine more compatible, the developers are also working on merging the two code trees, adding new features, and improving the OpenGL renderer. The result is a highly portable source tree based on the id Software code.
The latest release of Quake2Forge brings back a bunch of fixes from 0.5.3 (including news items) that got lost in the rushed release of 0.5.4. Additionally, there are several cvar renaming changes, such as scr_consize -> con_size and gl_conalpha -> con_alpha, as well as improvements to the demo speed, save game loading, and QNX fixes from Mike Gorchak. Best of all, server clients now work with mvds.
Overall, Quake2Forge is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a stable, portable Quake II engine that's designed to be compatible with other players. With its powerful features, improved cheat prevention methods, and improved compatibility, it's sure to provide you with countless hours of fun and excitement.
