Looks like it would be a fairly good engine to port for OS4 games.  From reading a few replys in the forums, sounds like a number of people there are running it just fine on a 500MHz class PC.

Wow, I had to go download and try for myself...it's really a fast engine, and seems pretty complete.

Not sure about the source, but there are links to pages where people are crating Mods and Maps, etc for it.  It was extremely fast when I did a connect to server.  Everything was almost instantly loaded and on screen.  I was pulling 150fps constantly.

Now I play a number of online FPS games on the PC (UT, Serious Sam 1&2, JK2:Jedi Outcast...) and they are much more advanced in overall complexity from what I can tell just playing with this for a few minutes...but I was impressed with what that engine did, and the download was only just over 6MB!

how fast is your computer?


Well, I admit it's built for gaming.  PIII 1GHz, 256MB PC133, 40G ATA100 Hard Drive, SB Live Platinum, and Geforce3 Ti200 (64mb version).  But still, it impressed me that such a fast engine that looked pretty complete came out of such a small 6MB download.

I wonder too if it will be available for AmigaOS?  Like Bjorn said...it would be nice to see some Amiga coders get this and grow it into some really nice fps.

It looks like a bikini!


LOL.... could be!  On the other shots it is replaced by a T-shirt.  There are maps with water in them, after all... didn't know they provided a suit to put on before jumping in. :)
