<P>Nexuiz is a stand-alone game using the Darkplaces engine. The recently released
|
|
second version is a 200 meg download, and includes Linux and Windows binaries,
|
|
source code, and a new campaign mode.</P>
|
|
<P>This engine makes use of many advanced lighting features, so users with less
|
|
powerful video cards should try disabling these to run the game at a decent
|
|
speed.</P>

<P>This project now works for me, and is looking very nice.</P>
|
|
<P>As well and as GL, X11 and SVGA clients, it has serious graphical and
|
|
game-play enhancements and some nice documentation. It is definately a project
|
|
to keep up with.</P>
|
|
<P>Sound may be an issue. It defaults to ALSA but to start with OSS try:
|
|
"<B>ezquake-gl.glx +set s_device /dev/dsp</B>". To compile the GL client,
|
|
type "<B>make glx</B>". You may have to change the Makefile thus:
|
|
<PRE>
|
|
- LDFLAGS = -lm -lpthread
|
|
+ LDFLAGS = -lm -lpthread -L/usr/X11R6/lib
|
|

<P>From the ProQuake website: "...What you will find is a rock solid set of
|
|
enhancements to unmodified netquake. Things that quake should have had from
|
|
the get go.. like precise aim. Small, simple changes that improve the
|
|
quality of netplay enormously. ProQuake is fully compatible with standard
|
|
NetQuake. .... ProQuake is also fully compatible with the advanced features
|
|
of Clanring CRMod++ version 6.0."</P>
