Are server mods possible? - oaties - 03-11-2012

Hello! I have been a long time Fortress game player (Quake 3 Fortress, Enemy Territory Fortress, Team Fortress Classic etc), and I have been curious about the modding capabilities in this game.

Basically, I wan't to create a server mod that makes the gameplay of this game closer to Fortress gameplay (and im not talking about TF2, because that IS NOT fortress).

Fortress gameplay is extremely fast paced and skilled, and is team oriented. I feel that this could be the perfect engine for it.

Here is an example of it:

So, is it possible to create server mods in this game? Can they change the gameplay enough to make something like this?

stupid youtube

anyways this game is moddable... I don't know to what extent, but it is. Overkill ... if you've heard of it (there should be a server online for it) is a mod... minsta-nex .... is a mod ...

so it could be possible

Yes, Xonotic is highly mod-able. both server side (there's a mutator/gamemode system) and client side (client progs, vm code, are sent automatically by server when needed). Sth like TF is likely a large mod, but fully doable.
