Digital Paint: Paintball 2 was originally a Quake2 mod. Now that Quake2 has been released under the GPL, Paintball2 has become a complete standalone game with an enhanced, open-sourced engine. Between the Quake2 physics and the one shot kills, it's an extremely fast paced game with numerous maps and gameplay modes. Gameplay modes include Elimination, CTF, 1-Flag CTF, Siege, Deathmatch, King of the Hill, and Pong. Some of the engine enhancements include reflective water and skeletal animation.

This is somewhat old news, but better late than never, right? Digital Paint: Paintball 2.0 Alpha Build 16 has been released and includes some nice visual upgrades as well as various bug fixes and tweaks. Here are a few of the things that have changed:

  • Skeletal model support.
  • Reflective water with fragment programs (if your graphics card supports them).
  • Various security patches to prevent buffer overflows and other possible attacks.
  • Movement tweaks to reduce getting stuck/stopped while strafe jumping as well as fixing getting getting stuck on angled walls and in water.
  • Various bug fixes including vsync setting, scoreboard refreshing, and network settings.
  • "cl_language" setting for potential translations of menus and game messages. No language files have been created yet.
  • International keyboard support on Windows.
  • Lightmaps on transparent surfaces in maps.
  • Pong mode! (Imagine soccer with guns).
  • Tweaks and bug fixes with grenades to reduce duds.
  • "flagcapendsround" setting won't end the round if there are other flag carriers. The round will end when the last held flag is captured.
  • Prevented suicides (grenade self-kills and exiting the base in siege mode) from stopping flag captures. If the enemy has the flag and you're the last person alive, you can't eliminate yourself.
  • Global ban list support. Anybody detected cheating will be banned from all servers.
  • Stand alone server browser to make finding servers easier. Just open the included serverbrowser.exe.

For a more complete list, visit the Digital Paint news on the release or download the game and read the readme.

No mac support yet (unless, of course, you use bootcamp on an x86 version). A couple people have started OSX ports but nobody has finished one yet. I don't own a mac, so I can't make one.
