# Yamagi Quake II
Yamagi Quake II is an enhanced client for id Software's Quake II with
focus on offline and coop gameplay. Both the gameplay and the graphics
are unchanged, but many bugs in the last official release were fixed and
some nice to have features like widescreen support, reliable support for
high framerates, a modern sound backend based upon OpenAL, support for
modern game controllers and a modern OpenGL 3.2 renderer were added.
Unlike most other Quake II source ports Yamagi Quake II is fully 64-bit
clean. It works perfectly on modern processors and operating systems.
This code is built upon Icculus Quake II, which itself is based on Quake
II 3.21. Yamagi Quake II is released under the terms of the GPL version
2. See LICENSE for further information:
* [LICENSE](https://github.com/yquake2/yquake2/blob/master/LICENSE)
Officially supported operating systems are:
* FreeBSD
* Linux
* Windows
Beside theses Yamagi Quake II has community support for MacOS and most
other unixoid operating systems, including NetBSD, OpenBSD and Solaris.
