Released in 1998, my brother Tom Reno and I released a mod for Quake 2 called Weapons Factory. It had quite a following, and at one point had 50 servers hosting the mod. Over the years, Weapons Factory has been ported and played on many game engines, including:
- Quake 2
- Quake 3 Arena
- Unreal Tournament
- Half-Life
- Tribes
On this the 25th anniversary of WF for Q2, I am releasing the source code for version 4.2.1. Not that I was holding on to it for any reason. It's just I forgot about it for years until I was recently reminded by a group of dedicated WF players over at Weapons Factory Arena and Weapons Factory Roblox that it would be a good idea to do so.
Also included are the original client, server and map files.
Weapons Factory was such a blast work on, and I am humbled by the awesome community who loved playing the game as much as I loved working on it. Thank you to all the players and developers who made Weapons Factory so great.
