XDM
Xtreme Deathmatch (XDM) is a server side mod for Half-Life 1 that lets server admins have more control over the game. Get away from the monotony of regular Half-Life Deathmatch (HLDM) and jump into
the fast paced excitement of XDM. Is running on the ground and jumping around getting tiresome? Fly though the air with a grappling hook and go places you\'ve never imagined reaching before. Enhance your game play with power up runes such as health regeneration, attack, defense, and movement.. Since XDM is a server side mod, players can join the server without having to download any files outside of Steam. XDM allows server administrators to customize settings like weapon damage and ammo, player health and armor, colors, runes, and grappling hook. You can now have a working spectator mode on a valve server including first person spectator mode. There are other features like broken objects regenerating, and an adjusting time and frag limit based on the number of players on the server, and server side bunny hop ability. What are you waiting for, jump on an XDM server today!
WELL THAT'S WHAT THE PAGE WHERE I FOUND IT ON SAYS (

Here in America we love that mod. But we have found a few bugs on it. I havent seen the code or something cause I'm actually not a programmer. It just feels that way.
Sometimes, when we play it feels laggy and we get some loss. At the beggining, we thought it was the server rates, but all of my servers have the same rates and my XDM mod server is the only one lagging that way. They all are running on the same machine, but my machine is powerful enough to host up to 9 servers.
I'll date the known bugs I have seen so far:
- Kind of laggy feeling when playing at high speeds, like slow weapon chaging when we all bunny hop fast or fly doing the gauss jump, but i guess that should not be the problem. (I set sv_maxspeed to 300, just like AG's default)
- Server crashes when cvar max_dead_bodies in mp_config.cfg in the settings folder is set to 0. It happens right after the first kill.
- Some people have complained about bad hit registry.
Here is my XDM server: 74.91.116.15:27015 X-Factor 2 USA [XDM] as example.
So please, I encourage LEV, GORDON or some other programmer to check the code and improve the mod.Thanks!
PS: I'll add some other bugs I believe I have found as soon as I see one.
