"Mr. Pants' Excessive Overkill for Quake III Arena Release 4 has finally arrived! Over 3 years since the previous release of ExcessiveQ3, you've finally got a new version packed full of goodies. New features include a new Joust mode, a grappling hook, instant weapon changing, and, the most requested feature ever, the ability for server admins to set which weapons are available on their server. Be sure to check the readme for full details.
Get it now!" -Mr. Pants

Head over and check it out! XP Lite 4 is also available, enjoy it.

Excessive Plus

Now this also means that Excessive Plus v1.0 is definitively on it's way!
While I refuse, as normal, to give any sort of release date, I will say that it's coming soon.

Update:
Well, the last beta runs have started and the release is very close.
Hopefully in a few days.

Sure. I've updated it, just redownload.

Use /ex_time "1" for game time and "2" for real time.

Actually, XP does about another four hundred things. Honestly, you can't even compare the two.

very true.....what i really meant to say was that it seems ex 4 jumped on the wagon a little to late, and that ex plus is rockin long before.

i have played a couple servers today with ex 4 and its just tweakable enought to screw things up.....and not tweakable enough to smooth out the play........ex plus is much more player friendly...MUCH!!!
