Kombat Teams eXtreme (KTX) is a QuakeWorld® server modification designed to enhance gameplay and provide players with several different playmodes. Among the most well known are:

DM: Deathmatch (with match settings, FFA, duels or teams) CTF: Capture The Flag (with or without runes) MA: MidAir RA: Rocket Arena IG: InstaGib etc… KTX also provides administrators with a lot of functionnalities to control how the server behaves and what the players have access to and can change, along with detailled statistics.

Inspired by KTPro (a non opensource QuakeWorld® server modification), KTX has been developed to provide the QuakeWorld© community with a more evolving opensource code and is based on Kombat Teams 2.21.
