  3. The room is now up, You can wait for more players to join then Click To start your Server.

Notes :

  • If you want to load custom files on your server (such as maps and other kinds of mods), Upload them to Meltdown using the button
  • You cannot join Rounds that already started unless Host restarts the game, In this case you may have to create your own Room, Or ask the Room host to restart the game.

Other tips:

  • Setup Notifications sounds, It is recommanded to know when you recieve a message, Request .. etc, I recommend using the sound [coconut].ogg.
  • You can find more information about Meltdown Here, And you can also join The Multiplayer group on Facebook or the Blood server on Discord to find help or find and play with other players.

Latest version was released at 2003, I don't think that project is coming back, though they released the SDK.

"Download the game through the Installer"

Could suggest to buy it either on GOG or Steam.
