But my job has been going kick-ass, though it's taking up a lot of time, plus other commitments have kept me away from the land of Quake. Perhaps sometime in April or May I will get started up again, and who knows what Quake III will bring. The Democratic Camping Deterrent DeCamper is a server-side, democratic camping deterrent for Quake 2. The controversial mod, originally released in January 1998, allows the players on a server to vote on whether or not to punish an accused Camper. Server operators can configure harsh or mild penalties, as well as how easy or difficult it is to vote someone a Camper.
Several mechanisms limit potential abuse of the voting system.
Source code is included in this release, which is the final release by Two Pole Software. Established mod authors who want to take over maintenance of the code may contact SteQve. Check out DeCamper and see for yourself what all the fuss was about. It's easy to use but powerful enough that expert mappers may enjoy it too. Go ahead and check out DynaMO .
