Obsidian Description

Obsidian is a OpenSource 3D network game for Linux and SGI. Obsidian project is a OpenSource 3D network game for Linux and SGI.Obsidian is an extensible virtual world system with a fullblown multiplayer client-server architecture. It is not a VRML2 world system, though there are plans to include VRML2 as a world data format. Note that active development on this system stopped a while ago, though the code is still available for the curious. The code may not even compile on current Linux or Irix systems. Here are some key features of "Obsidian": · Multiplayer Client-Server architecture · Generic TCP/IP hence works natively across the Internet · Full 3D headsup with texture mapping · Runs acceptably on a 486, screams on a Pentium · Editable worlds and textures · Supports some forms of IMPOSSIBLE ARCHITECTURE (eg. rooms that are bigger inside than out, corridors that curve back on themselves) · Inter-player communications · Projectile weapons (rudimentary, anybody is welcome to add more spectacular violence if they can)
