Gah, all these old games. Don't know most of them. Just been given a copy of MDK which I've been told was great.

Yay! Teh fortress!

I'll play, i love it. Allthough it's only really good when there is propper teamwork

Wish they'd get around to making TF: S

How determined are you to get it playable?

Go through this and try everything

I did it for Doom 3 when I had a card that wasn't even close to being able to run it properly and got it playable

I'm in! How about a quick run before css tonight?

team fortress classic (TFC) is a classic game from way back when, which is rather jolly and still has a strong following.

it's available through steam if you own HL1

Sorry how rude of us. HL1 mods.

TFC = Team Fortress Classic - the origin of various game modes and classes, one being based around two opposing forts, another being the Hunted mode which is the predecessor of the VIP mod we sometimes play on CSS. The oilrig map originally came from there.

DMC = Death Match Classic - sort of a Quake 1 mod for HL, complete with groinallly-attached rocket launcher and some supposedly classic maps.

Boxwar = Everyone's a box. The levels are festooned with boxes. Unfortunately whenever I played it, the "human" boxes were usually spacking out, making them rather easy to spot.

Possible the maddest mod we ever played was PS07, or Surprise, which you may be able to get here - it was full of all sorts of weird stuff in the last version we played (0.2b) - crazy super-destructive guns, jetpacks and lots of models ripped out of other mods.

I did make a few maps for it once, I remember one based on the Q2 level with the conveyor belt with boxes on, as without "proper" spawn locations you had to use the cheats to try out most of the weapons.
