More QuakeWorld Client v0.96 (Linux) Details
Here is another client for QuakeWorld to use that still being worked on. See additional information for the readme.

This is mqwcl version 0.96.
Probably this is not a version you heard about, with eye-candy
improvements yet. But work on next mqwcl version takes longer and
longer. And there is a need for new version, because of some bugs
in v. 0.95, especially client security issues and cheating issues.
Not to mention about legality of mqwcl.

In general this is mqwcl 0.95, with few fixes applied, and very few
new features. And finally, with source released. Mqwcl 1.0 version,
with full documentation, is still a work in progress.

Another good thing in this release is support for Linux, as there
were no 0.95 for linux. Linux is fully supported, with full f_version
authentication, and with greatly improved GLX version.

Client authentication introduced in version 0.95 allows mqwcl to be
free of cheats and modified versions, with published source, which
is a requirement for its compliance with GPL. This prooved to work
fine, except some bugs in f_version, which sometimes (and sometimes
pretty often) caused legal clients to not be authenticated. This is
fixed and I believe it will work fine now. If you encounter any
problems with this stuff, report them immediately, as they have high
priority.

Many TF players asked for features, which would make mqwcl a legal
TeamFortress client. For now, it is consider cheaty in TF. Problems
reported are always the same: dead body filter, colour forcing and
skin forcing with fullbright skins. This stuff didn't fit into this
release, sorry. I plan to change it in next version, so be patient.
Colour and skin forcing, as well as fb_skins can all be blocked by
server (with FPD), so I suggest you use it for now on servers, which
allow mqwcl.

Since the end of April, there is a forum, where you can discuss about
mqwcl, report problems and ask for new features. Also, don't hesitate
to ask, if you have general QuakeWorld problems, someone will help
you to get into this great game for sure. Recently forums for
QWEX (http://ktpro.does.it) and KTPto (http://ktpro.does.it) were
added, and all those forums are now available in one place. So this
is a great place to visit if you are interested in development
in QuakeWorld, or just need help. Visit:

http://mqwcl.qhlan.org/forum


I'd like to say sorry to all ppl that put some work into mqwcl, as
you were not credited anywhere so far. I know most of you don't care
about this, but this is pretty important for me, and it will come with
mqwcl documentation in next version.
