<div>How do you figure?</div>

<div>I've not only worked on Q3 projects. I spent over a year working on the Antrix emulator as well as writing my own additions to be one of the first World or Warcraft Emulators to support The Burning Crusade. <a href="http://code.google.com/p/angelemu/">http://code.google.com/p/angelemu/</a></div>

<div>Adding protocol support for a game that IS NOT open source is not easy. But it has been proven that it can be done. I used Wireshark <a href="http://www.wireshark.org/">http://www.wireshark.org/</a> 90% of the time and a custom sql packet anyalizer to gather needed data in order to write support for TBC.</div>

<div>Quake 3 doesn't use a database which makes it that much easier to support other protocals. Just because it may not be easy does not mean it can't be done. I myself I played on older q3 servers with different protocals and I never had a problem. I know nothing about the mod that was mentioned but figured it takes 5 minutes or less to recompile ioQuake3 to see if he could connect to the mod. Again, I've said before that what I wrote was just a suggestion.</div>
