Yes that is a Quake screenshot ... like as in "Quake 1" ...

Gamma4Car

Urre, who hangs out at the Inside3D forums and author of Twig physics, has released Gamma4Car, a one-button controlled car game. All content is GPL. Download: 5.4 MB Likely requires DarkPlaces.

Servers

The SplinterTown.org server is running the Elohim mod has an additional DNS (ny.clanring.tk) administered by Kimp and MasterSplinter with many new features: read more ...

NewDM. Monster has been working on reviving Canadian*Sniper's weapon-balanced and ammo-scarce NewDM mod. It awaits permanent hosting at HDZ. Read more ...

Scribble[SFD] has a Steam group trying to revive Quakeworld CTF and supposedly has the real "Zoid" (creator of Capture The Flag) as a member. Then again Quake has seen many fake impersonators over the years so maybe it is, maybe it isn't. Either way, his efforts to revive Quakeworld CTF can be found here.

Quake Reforged Updates!

The most active and successful effort in recent years to give Quake single player a facelift and all types of awe and polish has yet more updates. Alfader and Nergal and unofficial occasional guest stars such as Seanstar (Conner?) share their works here in this thread.

Xonotic

The primarily game content developers behind Nexuiz have forked the project and named it as Xonotic. Xonotic home page. Interesting note: The Xonotic project head div0 compiled the original RQuake modified server engine for Linux, neither RocketGuy nor myself could get the obsolete makefiles to work back in '06.

Gamma4Car is fun!

It takes a bit of practice though: pressing the space key both accelerates into the direction the car is currently facing (in a straight line) and changes the direction in which the car will be steering after releasing the key (left or right circle).

Changing directions quickly is key.

You don't need to d/l darkplaces seperately or put the game into your quake directory, it's a stand-alone game that comes with darkplaces. Just extract it and hf!
