Yeah... Me neither :(
I guess in that era was available, around 2001~2003.

Sent you a PM so you can grab them :up:

Will try and come up with a better way of getting out-of-print content back up to a wider audience soon.

I just found an ancient version of Last Man Standing, I'm trying to dig the source code but I wonder where is. This image came from my head before, I expected it to be like this.

https://web.archive.org/web/20021225033 ... msoft/lms/

I found from here while I was researching some info:

Here, Foo. I applied that ancient LMS source code to last Q3A version:

https://github.com/LegendaryGuard/q3a_lms

There's a README where you can read the *How to play* section to play these cvars with LMS gamemode:
https://github.com/LegendaryGuard/q3a_lms#how-to-play

Also you can download the latest QVMs, .dll (Windows) and .so (Linux) files (there are debug and release builds of .dll and .so):
