Announcing: Quake2Live

[sfranzyshen]

Quake2Live is a multiplayer FPS video game designed to be launched via a Web browser plugin. It offers game players a free and easily accessible multiplayer game that uses the Quake2 engine.

Sorry, no game play yet ... but source code has started. We are looking for feedback and suggestions from developers as well as players.

The project is split into the following parts;

Quake2Live-Master: This is the database backend web server.
Quake2Live-Plugin: This is the web browser plugin
Quake2Live-Client: This is the Quake2 client
Quake2Live-Dedicated: Yup! we are planning user servers.

We plan to develop for the Linux. Windows, and Mac OSx platforms.

I saw a copy of this announcement on Mod DB which a friend pointed me to. I think that you should post this on the forums at tastyspleen.net as well.


I would love to help this project out. I've had similar ideas but haven't been able to go forward. (where I work we created a browser plugin for another engine and I'm not sure where my NDA begins and ends on the matter)

So short of creating the plugin, I'd love to help out with any of the coding as time permits!

I was pumped when I saw this aswell, but now that the site seems to be down. I'm a little unpumped.
