FreeCS

Open-Source implementation of Counter-Strike running on the FTE QuakeWorld engine.

Goals

The goal of this project is to provide an open-source implementation of Counter-Strike 1.5. Counter-Strike, being one of the most popular multiplayer games to exist, surprisingly hasn't had a free-software implementation done until now.

Some of the cool things you can do with this:

  • Play/Host CS and CS Servers on virtually every platform. ( Main selling point )
  • Customize the game to whatever extent you like.
  • Create entirely new weapons!
  • Create completely new and refreshing gamemodes!
  • Have a guarantee to be able to play it 20 years into the future!
  • Use it as a base for your own games/mods! (As long as you own the rights to the assets)

Status

All the weapons are implemented, so are the gamemodes: Hostage Rescue (cs), Bomb Defusal (de), Assassination (as) and Escape (es). Not all equipment is implemented and no map radar/overview is recreated. Basically, the game is playable as long as you don't care about grenades (for now).

Installing

  1. Download the latest version of FTE QuakeWorld.
  2. Download csv15full.exe and to get the cstrike folder.
  3. Move both the cstrike folder and FTE QuakeWorld into a folder
  4. Clone this repository into that same folder, so that freecs, default.fmf and cstrike co-exist
  5. Run FTE QuakeWorld

Optional step: Copy the 'valve' folder from your Half-Life installation in order for all features to work.

Notes

You might get away with using the cstrike folder from the Steam version of Counter-Strike 1.6, or any older version than 1.5 - but they are not supported. I will not try to recreate 1.6 or any other earlier versions specifically. I may however add additional, optional features that will emulate behaviour of later versions of Counter-Strike.
