Ćao svima,

Pre nekog vremena sam ovde podelio q3js.com, Quake 3 koji radi direktno u browseru. Od tada se oko projekta napravio lep community. Skoro 13.000 ljudi je igralo, trenutno imamo 16 servera, a ukupno je napravljeno preko 1.1 milion killova.

Sada sam napravio nešto slično za CS 1.6:

https://csjs.live

Ako vam nedostaje stari CS 1.6, sada možete da ga igrate direktno iz browsera. Samo otvorite sajt, izaberete server i uđete u igru. Nema instalacije, skidanja klijenta ni obavezne registracije.

Igra je portovana u WebAssembly/JavaScript, a ideja od početka je bila da gameplay ostane što verniji originalnom CS 1.6. Nisam želeo da pravim neku "modernu" verziju CS-a, već da u browseru dobijete praktično ono što pamtite iz originalne igre.

Oko same igre sam napravio i ostatak platforme: server browser, profile igrača, scoreboard, statistike, ELO i rankove, statistike za mape i oružja, kill history itd.

Podržani su i community serveri, tako da svako može da podigne svoj server, ubaci custom mape ili pokrene modove poput Surf-a, GunGame-a i drugih.

Uputstvo za hostovanje servera je ovde:

https://csjs.live/host-a-server

Cilj mi je da se i oko CSJS-a napravi sličan community kao oko q3js-a, sa aktivnim igračima, community serverima i moderacijom.

Projekat je još u razvoju i dosta stvari se i dalje dorađuje, tako da su feedback, predlozi i bug reportovi dobrodošli.

Ako probate, javite kako vam radi. :)

A few months ago I posted an update here about Q3JS, my browser port of Quake 3.

Since then I've mostly just kept building, fixing things, and watching people play it.

Q3JS has now passed 1 million recorded frags, with over 12,000 players on the scoreboard.

https://q3js.com

It's pretty wild to see those numbers for something that started as an experiment to see how well Quake 3 could run in a browser.

The part I've enjoyed most is seeing Q3JS turn into an actual little Quake 3 community rather than just a browser port. People are hosting their own servers, playing CPMA and CTF, loading custom maps, climbing the rankings, and coming back to play.

One of the bigger additions recently is push-to-talk voice chat. It's optional, but if you're playing with other people you can now talk directly in-game without needing Discord or anything else running alongside it. It makes jumping into a server and playing together feel a lot more complete.

There are also mobile controls now, so you can actually play Quake 3 on a phone or tablet, as questionable as playing Quake 3 on a touchscreen might sound.

I've kept working on the less visible parts too. Server hosting is easier now, there's a Docker image and hosting documentation, and I've continued improving networking, compatibility, and the general experience of jumping into a game.

The stats side has grown quite a bit too. Player profiles now track weapons, maps, victims, nemeses, and activity, with rankings across different time periods.

It's been great watching this go from a technical experiment into something people actually come back and play.

The project is open source:

Feedback, bug reports, and contributions are always welcome. If you enjoy the project, a GitHub star helps other people discover it.

Just to clarify, Q3JS only uses demo files and does not distribute any original game files that it shouldn't.

Happy fragging.

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share a project I've been working on: a browser-based port of Jedi Academy.

https://jk.q3js.com

The focus is multiplayer, and you can connect to servers and play online directly from your browser.

A few important notes:

• You'll need your own Jedi Academy .pk3 files to play.
• The site does not include, distribute, or download any game assets.
• This project is based on the open-source Jedi Academy engine and is simply a port of that engine to WebAssembly/WebGL for use in modern browsers.
• No proprietary game content is included with the project.
• You must provide your own legally obtained game data.

It's still a work in progress, so expect bugs, missing features, and browser-specific issues.

I'd love to hear any feedback, especially around performance, browser compatibility, and the multiplayer experience.

If you're curious about how it works or run into any issues, feel free to ask.
