BZFlag is a 3D multi-player multiplatform tank battle game that allows users to play against each other in a network environment. There are five teams: red, green, blue, purple and rogue (rogue tanks are black). Destroying a player on another team scores a win, while being destroyed or destroying a teammate scores a loss. Rogues have no teammates (not even other rogues), so they cannot shoot teammates and they do not have a team score.

There are two main styles of play: capture-the-flag and free-for-all. In capture-the-flag, each team (except rogues) has a team base and each team with at least one player has a team flag. The object is to capture an enemy team's flag by bringing it to your team's base. This destroys every player on the captured team, subtracts one from that team's score, and adds one to your team's score. In free-for-all, there are no team flags or team bases. The object is simply to get as high a score as possible.

This package installs the BZFlag client compatible with 2.4.x BZFlag servers.

The package is enhanced by the following packages: bzflag-server

Nexuiz Classic is a fast-paced 3D deathmatch game with high-end and complex graphics effects. It is intended to be played over the Internet or over a local network. Several different game types, such as classic deathmatch, team deathmatch and capture the flag are available. It also supports a single-player mode and playing against the computer.

The game brings deathmatch back to the basics, with perfect weapon balancing and fast paced action, keeping itself away from the current trend of realistic shooters.

This package installs the client to play the game.

This game was originally released as "Nexuiz", but is now referred to as "Nexuiz Classic" since the Nexuiz name was re-used for a non-free game for consoles.

RBDoom3BFG 3 is a Doom 3 BFG GPL source modification. The goal of RBDoom3BFG 3 is to bring Doom 3 BFG with the help of SDL to all suitable platforms. Bugs present in the original DOOM 3 will be fixed (when identified) without altering the original game-play.

Note, to play the original game, you'll need a copy of the game data.

The package can also be used with free map data, like the demomap from OpenTechBFG.

The purpose of the Doomsday Engine project is to create versions of DOOM, Heretic and Hexen that feel the same as the original games but are implemented using modern techniques such as 3D graphics and client/server networking. A lot of emphasis is placed on good-looking graphics.

Doomsday Engine (or deng for short) requires an IWAD to play. You can install your commercial IWADs using game-data-packager.

KTX (Kombat Teams eXtreme) is a popular QuakeWorld server modification, adding numerous features to the core features of the server.

Although it had been developed to be Quakeworld server agnostic, it has over the years been developed very close to MVDSV to which it has become an extent, thus compatibility with other Quakeworld servers might not have been maintained.

QuakeSpasm is a Unix-friendly Quake engine based on the SDL port of the popular FitzQuake. It includes some new features, important fixes, and aims for portability and correctness.

This package contains no data files. To use it, you will need to either install the commercial Quake data, or alternative free data files such as OpenQuartz.

This engine is typically used via a script that launches it with a particular data set, such as the one found in the "quake" package.

Woof! is a continuation of Lee Killough's Doom source port MBF targeted at modern systems.

MBF stands for "Marine's Best Friend" and is widely regarded as the successor of the Boom source port by TeamTNT. It serves as the code base for popular Doom source ports such as PrBoom+/DSDA-Doom or The Eternity Engine. As the original engine was limited to run only under MS-DOS, it has been ported to Windows by Team Eternity under the name WinMBF in 2004. Woof! is developed based on the WinMBF code with the aim to make MBF more widely available and convenient to use on modern systems.

To achieve this goal, this source port is less strict regarding its faithfulness to the original MBF. It is focused on quality-of-life enhancements, bug fixes and compatibility improvements. However, all changes have been introduced in good faith that they are in line with the original author's intentions and even for the trained eye, this source port should still look very familiar to the original MBF.

In summary, this project's goal is to forward-port MBF.EXE from DOS to 21st century and remove all the stumbling blocks on the way. Furthermore, just as MBF was ahead of its time, this project dedicates itself to early adoption of new modding features such as DEHEXTRA+DSDHacked, UMAPINFO and MBF21.
