Odamex

Odamex is a modified Doom source port based on csDoom for wide range of computer platforms, including Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, MacOSX and Solaris. It has been designed to allow client/server-based Doom gameplay over the Internet and LAN. The latest release version is 0.2a (Tues, 20 Feb 2007).

Description
Currently, Odamex supports the traditional old-school style of Deathmatch, but it also includes other gameplay modes: Teamplay and Capture the Flag (CTF).

It also supports an array of editing features, including the BOOM map format, DeHackEd and BEX (Boom EXtension) patch support, and support for several additional music formats, such as MOD and OGG.

The port is still quite new; the first version was only released on January of 2007, and is still in an alpha state. However, the port itself is still very playable and quite stable.

Odamex Launcher
The included launcher is specifically designed for Odamex. It allows the user to receive a list of running Odamex servers from the master servers (Odamex utilizes more than one master), and lets them join a game simply by selecting the server on which they wish to play. Currently the launcher is in a primitive state, but it does support some simplistic features, such as list sorting and line color coding.

Unlike the ZDaemon launcher, the Odamex launcher does not include a "lobby" in which players can chat and there are no plans to include one at this time.
