Update the README to reality.
* Mention some more new features added in the last years. * Make clear that only FreeBSD, Linux and Windows have official support. Everything else is community supported. * Link to the official addons and yquake2remaster. * Give some hints to bug reporters and contributors. * Link to CI builds. * Avoid relative links so that personal forks link back to the main projects. If forks want to link to their own ressources, they can edit the file.

# 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 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. Yamagi
|
||||
Quake II runs on nearly all common platforms; including FreeBSD, Linux, NetBSD,
|
||||
OpenBSD, Windows and macOS (experimental).

|
||||
II 3.21. Yamagi Quake II is released under the terms of the GPL version
|
||||
2. See LICENSE for further information:

## Addons and partner projects
|
||||
|
||||
This repository contains Yamagi Quake II itself. The official addons
|
||||
have their own repositories:
|
||||
|
||||
* [The Reckoning](https://github.com/yquake2/xatrix)
|
||||
* [Ground Zero](https://github.com/yquake2/rogue)
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Yamagi Quake II Remaster is a project providing optional support for the
|
||||
assets of Quake II Remaster by Nightdive Studios and has a less
|
||||
conservative approach in regards to new features. It also lives in it's
|
||||
own repository:

||||
|
||||
* [Yamagi Quake II Remaster](https://github.com/yquake2/yquake2remaster)

|
||||

||||
|

We are always open to code contributions, no matter if they are small
|
||||
bugfixes or bigger features. However, Yamagi Quake II is a conservative
|
||||
project with big focus on stability and backward compatibility. We don't
|
||||
accept breaking changes. When in doubt please open an issue and ask if a
|
||||
contribution in welcome before putting too much work into it. Open a
