It's focus is simplicity, security, stability, and speed. It contains critical security updates for both clients and servers, bandwidth saving network protocol enhancements, an improved console, and some major speed increases. Quetoo is up to 140% faster than stock Quake2. <p>If you're looking for visual effect updates and gimmick features, run something else. However, perhaps these things sound good to you: <ul> <li>Dramatic performance increases through proper removal of dynamic lighting, polyblend and other "candy" features. <li>Integrated video refresh and renderer core simplifies program design and execution. <li>R1Q2 Protocol 35 support and Quetoo-specific protocol extensions to save bandwidth. <li>Support for asynchronous video/sound/input and network framing: run at 90fps over a dialup connection. <li>High color Targa (.tga) image support for all game media. <li>Location (.loc) file support for alerting team members to your position. <li>Mono (white) lightmap interpolation mode for neutral (non-colored) lighting. <li>Ability to disable ambient sounds and load wildcard pakfiles (*.pak). <li>Vastly improved console with Bash-style tab completion, positioned editing, mwheel scrolling, etc.. <li>Optional deathmatch mod with MySQL frag logging and team play. <li>GNU Autoconf/Automake build scripts and pure C source compiles cleanly with modern gcc. </ul> | Quetoo 0.6.0 | new | Quetoo |
| 7149 | 4 | 2007-01-16 13:30:50 | <p>I just changed our rating system to one using bayesian weights. This should make the "sort by rating" much more useful. If you notice anything unusual, please comment or send me a mail. And please rate the games you tried. <p>I also fixed the Holarse rss inclusion at least partly so that it is useful again. <p>A third thing to note: If you tried registering and didn't get your confirmation mail, check your spam folder. At least gmail is known to filter our confirmation mail. | New rating system | default | |
