q2pro

Edit 6-23-2026: I am redoing the naming convention and adding EVEN MORE builds! Linux x86 builds will now be i386. I am also compiling separate i386 builds that have the ABI Hack enabled and one that is disabled. ‘abi’ builds will have it enabled. Currently only the i386 builds have been updated to have both. I’ll update windows tomorrow to have both as well! This is probably entirely unnecessary, but I want to make sure the community has all available options to run any mod, in theory.

I did not realize someone had forked/taken a snapshot of q2pro, available at https://github.com/q2pro/q2pro

I have taken some time to compile them as well. These are also untested but I suspect will work better than the q2repro builds below which I will probably end up deleting (Edit: I recompiled the q2repro builds with what I learned on this, they may work better if you need repro).

I was able to compile them with http support again, and the various variable fps and anticheat server builds, so you can pick either neither, a ‘vfps’ build (no anticheat), or an ‘ac’ build (anticheat, no vfps), or a vfps-ac build (both). Or none as mentioned.

There are x86 and x64 builds, so you should be able to run any mod. Also included i386 for ubuntu.

Let me know if you’re using them! I’m pretty excited that there’s at least a semi-stable repo for q2pro again!

Each file also contains a log file which shows what it was built with, e.g.:
