This will be the last update of Adopt-A-Mod. I no longer have the time or motivation to commit to it. It deserves to be updated regularly, which I am no longer able to do. If anyone is interested in contiuing with it, or porting it to other games, the full source and a little documentation is available here. I'd love to see this project continue, especially for other games. Further questions can be sent here. Thanks.

  Each year, hundreds of mods are created. A few have the publicity to gain servers and popularity. Others are doomed to be just another zip file. You, the server operators of the Quake 2 community, can help. Please offer your services to these mod authors. Are you running normal deathmatch but never have anyone on your server? Why not run on of these mods? The mod authors will advertise your server for you. It's very possible that your server could be full all the time.
