An object oriented, clean and stable version of the Quake II modding gamex86.dll system.

This project aims to provide a clean, efficient, quick base for any modding you plan to deliver on Quake II. It also provides an easy to use, C++ base.

Windows and Linux are both supported.

Features at a glance:

• Full use of C++'s features, such as classes, templates and inline functions
• Original long-standing bugs fixed
• Object oriented entity system
• Private server entities that don't take up any network space (deathmatch only)
• A timer system that can be used to schedule things without using an entity (deathmatch only)
• Entity-based saving, loading, and fields for level parsing
• String hashed lookup tables
• Game API wrapper
• Several optional addon features
• "Junk" entity system to reduce the amount of junk on the map at once
• Full object-oriented standalone item system and weapon system
• Several optimizations to keep the game running smoother and faster than ever before
• Aim to offer increased stability over original Quake II
• Supports any Quake II 3.20 engine
• A full file system and parsing system
• A version checker to make sure you're always running the latest version
• An exception handler that can generate a crash dump for us to examine crashes much more easily
• The exception handler can also recover from a crash and continue game-play! (Windows)
• Media system to better handle media indexing
• Platform-independent classes and functions
• CTF built-in (dubbed CleanCTF), can be disabled with the CLEANCTF_ENABLED macro
• Object oriented math classes, such as vec3f for 3d vectors
• A custom menu system that has a .NET-similar API
• Several common controls (Image, Label, Slider, Spin control) and the ability to create custom controls with ease
• An easier to read error and warning print system for maps
• A map debug mode (mostly still in development) that can let you edit maps without using a map editor
• An entity replacement system (.ccent) that supports special preprocessor commands
• Cvar system to make cvar management easier and faster
• Banning system to ban people from entering the game, entering spectator mode, or to stop them from talking
• Object oriented monster system
• Replacements for nearly all of the game import functions; these replacements are either faster or more secure, or both!
• Optional deprecation (Visual Studio 2005+ only) for deprecated game import functions, to help you avoid deprecated functions
• Trace system
• Easier to manage statusbar system
• Net optimizations to make sure that data is only sent if it needs to be sent!
• A "write queue" to allow net optimizations to happen
• Sound playing optimization to only push one sound per channel for one entity
• Command argument system to allow easier access to typed subcommands
• Much, much more! Download the binaries and source for yourself!
