Revival of the 0verkill game

0verkill

This is a fork of 0verkill in hopes to revive the game's development.

This fork takes over from where github.com/hackndev/0verkill left off.

I'm working on refactoring the project's code to make further development easier.

Patches done

  • Fix md5 checksum calculation. (It was very broken, more noticable when running the client and server on different machines.)
  • Rename configure.in to configure.ac

Install

You need a C compiler (gcc or clang), autoconf and make

$ autoreconf
# Pass --with-x for X11 support.
$ ./configure
$ make

Then start a server ./server and start playing ./0verkill and connect to the server.

The patches done makes it incompatible with the original game's server as there was some major bug that needed to be fixed with the way the md5 checksum was being calculated.

Windows support although implemented in the original code is very outdated and there isn't any proper build instructions. Status is unknown and help wanted.
