Introduction - what is XTeam-InstaReap?
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

XTeam-InstaReap is a multiplayer mod for the 6DOF game "Descent 3" ((C) Outrage
Entertainment) which extends the original mod "Team-InstaReap" by "Grim" in
which you only have the mass driver weapon which will kill your enemy players
with just one hit (team version for up to 4 teams).


What are the differences between XTeam-InstaReap and Team-InstaReap?
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

XTeam-InstaReap currently has the following changes (as of version 22):

Bugfixes:
	-When shooting the first time, the weapon changes to the mass driver
         and shoots immediately instead of waiting for another shot (the
         mass driver can't be equipped right after spawning because of a
         bug in the reticle management)

New features:
	-Free afterburner coolers for everyone!
	-Cheat prevention on server side by measuring the time between two
	 shots per player - cheaters will be kicked and all players will be
	 notified (by using text and the classic "Cheater!" sound)

Removed stuff:
	-The Outrage logo won't be displayed anymore

New restrictions:
	-You should use a dedicated server for this mod to work probably. If
         you start a server ingame, some features like cheat protection might
         not work properly

Source code
:::::::::::

The code of XTeam-InstaReap is available to anyone on its project page (see
bottom).


Compiling
:::::::::

The mod can be compiled by any supported compiler of the Descent 3 SDK. The mod
has been built on a Linux machine with GCC 2.95-3 and MSVC 6.

On Linux, type "make" (for debug) or "make release" (for optimized binary).
On Windows, load the project anarchy.dsp and select your target (debug or
release).


Q & A
:::::

Q: Why are the sources named "Anarchy.cpp" instead of "XTeam-InstaReap.cpp",
   etc.?
A: That's because I was too lazy to rename the project in MSVC so if you build
   the mod on Windows, you will also get a file "anarchy.dll" which you need to
   rename to XTeam-InstaReap.dll. The Linux Makefile automatically builds the
   file XTeam-InstaReap.so.

Q: What can I do with this source code?
A: Anything you want, except for selling it or binaries of it (see below).

Q: What is the license of the mod?
A: Since XTeam-InstaReap and Team-InstaReap were built from the original mod
   "Anarchy" by Outrage, this mod uses the Outrage License which can be found
   in the header of each source code file or in the file LICENSE.txt.

Q: If I want to modify this mod, where can I get the compilers?
A: As for MSVC 6, you will need to buy a copy from eBay. As for GCC on Linux,
   you can either compile an old version (<= 2.95-3) or ask D.Cent for a
   portable chroot (see below).
