Introduction Long time ago, I felt the urge to improve upon the depth of the cooperative game mode of Quake2. I also enjoyed playing role playing games of various kinds. After some thinking, the ancestor of Giex - Chacoop - was born. Chacoop spun oGiex aims to become the first MMORPG mod for Quake2, by taking the fundamental ideas from Chacoop and enhancing them.
If you need some time off from Tremulous and you would like to kick some Quake II monster ass in a Diablo-style Quake II Co-Op mod, bare with me.
SatGNU has set up a Giex! server, just head on over to the Giex! website, read the short manual, get the mod itself, get the map-pak and come to #satgnu on QuakeNet IRC, where you can query the server and hook up with some of the other people and go kill some more Jorgs with 500.000 HP.
Take note that this is a modification for Quake II, and as such, you require the original Quake II data to play it. And no, you cannot get it from us, go find it somewhere else.
And, eh, read that manual. Set up your keybindings.

I loved giex, even more than vortex mod. Unfortunately, this download seems to only be a pak9 file. The proper mod .dll is not here. I tested it. A sad loss. I may have giex mod on a CD somewhere. I don't think any copies exist of this mod. I'm just glad we have various shooter-RPGs amongst modern gaming. Too bad most of them are heavily slowed-down compared to quake.
EDIT : apparently the source for giex mod is on github here Github.com
