# OpenCS
|
|
Open-Source implementation of CS running on FTE QuakeWorld
|
|
|
|
# Goals
|
|
The goal of this project is to provide an open-source implementation of Counter-Strike 1.5.
|
|
Counter-Strike, being one of the most popular multiplayer games to exist, surprisingly hasn't had
|
|
a free-software implementation done until now.
|
|
|
|
Some of the cool things you can do with this:
|
|
* Play/Host CS and CS Servers on virtually every platform. ( Main selling point )
|
|
* Customize the game to whatever extent you like.
|
|
* Create entirely new weapons!
|
|
* Create completely new and refreshing gamemodes!
|
|
* Have a guarantee to be able to play it 20 years into the future!
|
|
* Use it as a base for your own games/mods! (As long as you own the rights to the assets)
|
|
|
|
# Status
|
|
All the weapons are implemented, so are the gamemodes: Hostage Rescue (cs), Bomb Defusal (de), Assassination (as) and Escape (es).
|
|
Not all equipment is implemented and no map radar/overview is recreated.
|
|
Basically, the game is playable as long as you don't care about grenades (for now).
|
|
|
|
# Installing
|
|
1. Download the latest version of FTE QuakeWorld.
|
|
2. Download csv15full.exe and to get the cstrike folder.
|
|
3. Move both the cstrike folder and FTE QuakeWorld into a folder
|
|
4. Clone this repository into that same folder, so that opencs, default.fmf and cstrike co-exist
|
|
5. Run FTE QuakeWorld
|
|
|
|
Optional step: Copy the 'valve' folder from your Half-Life installation in order for all features to work.
|
|
|
|
# Notes
|
|
You might get away with using the cstrike folder from the Steam version of CS 1.6, or any older version
|
|
than 1.5 - but they are not supported. I will not try to recreate 1.6 or any other earlier versions specifically.
|
|
I may however add additional, optional features that will emulate behaviour of later versions of CS.
