Quake 4 Fortress eXtreme

Post by Mulletman »

Some of you may be aware that the Q4F project came to a stop and an Alpha version was released along with the source code. A dedicated "Team Fortress" gamer (avirox) who has worked with modding since the beginning is wanting to make this project a reality. Here are some of his projects.............
MegaTF United - a mod which combines elements of all the greatest tf mods to mega and adds new features and bugfixes as well
TF United Coop - Team fortress cooperative play - introduces tougher, more challenging monsters using the team fortress gameplay style.

..and his others:
ETF max - Mod based on Enemy Territory Fortress which uncaps bunnyhopping speeds and makes ETF feel more like QuakeWorld TF.
Quake 4 Fortress eXtreme - My continuation of where the Q4F team left off. It's currently in development (especially for 1.4.2)
Codename RoX: A stand-alone game based on the Darkplaces engine which combines elements of FPS and RTS games with base-building and unit construction etc.
If anyone is interested in helping out with Q4FX, please read this....... http://forums.teamfortressxtreme.com/in ... wtopic=866

TFX is a dedicated site to "Team Fortress" games and open source modding is a great experience!

This is what we need to make this go.................
- A team of DEDICATED players (I'm aiming at at least 10) who can attend scheduled nightly matches two to four times a week
- Confident beta testers who won't just run around aimlessly but explore the game and class structure and balance and report on areas where elements need to be tweaked or changed
- Multi-platform users - linux, etc.
- Preferably people with quake 4
Any help is appreciated!

Here is the Q4F promo video from Quakecon!

Hope it isn't disappointing like Q4 & DOOM 3 multiplayer seemed to have been.... to me anyways.

Actually, multi-player is what "Team Fortress" is all about! Watch the video!

Multiplayer has been tested already and is stable with 12-18 players online. Most "Team Fortress" maps are small maps ideal for 8-20 players.

Testing for the Q4FX project has begun and the reviews from the players are outstanding! The latest Q4 1.4.2 patch has made Quake 4 multi-player issues a thing of the past and so far there are no game hindering bugs with Q4FX. We have one server up located in the USA, but most of our players seem to be Euro players. Still no major complaints.

If you want to play Q4FX you will need...........

Quake 4 Full game
Q4 1.4.2 patch

Join the server and the mod will auto-download.

Here is a low quality video one of the testers slapped together.......
