Announcing the release of The Complete Enhanced Teamplay v0.93.

This version includes a new feature to kick players with too many

negative frags, adds messages to notify players when someone is killing

their teammates, and changes a little of the MOTD functionality. The mod

is available in source or unified diff and can be obtained from the

following url:

For complete information, please see the above URL. Here's a short excerpt

from the text summarizing the modifications:

The Complete Enhanced Teamplay is a QuakeC mod which is intended

to provide a great deal of flexibility in teamplay settings. I've

retained all of the original functionality of Quake v1.01 and my

previous Enhanced Teamplay, and added many more features. My aim

is to have lots of useful teamplay options which the server can

select at will, while minimizing my modification to the original

QuakeC code. The options included in this release are:

* Players' health can be protected from friendly fire damage

* Players' armor can be protected from friendly fire damage

* Damage inflicted to teammates can be mirrored on the attacker

* Frags can be deducted for the killing of teammates

* Players can be killed for killing their teammates

* Players can be required to use only colors specified by the server

* Players can be prohibited from changing teams

* Players can be allowed to drop ammo and weapons

* Players can be automatically kicked off the server when their

frags drop below a specified point.

All these options can be turned on and off individually.

If you use this software on a server, kindly drop me a line and

let me know, so I can visit. :)

Enjoy, and send me your comments!
