After 19 months of development, the Transfusion Team is happy to announce
the release of the 1.0 version of Transfusion. Formerly known as qBlood,
Transfusion is a Total Conversion for Quake that recreates the awesome
multiplayer gameplay and environment of Monolith Productions 1997 release
"Blood." Transfusion is released under the Gnu Public License and is free
to download, modify and distribute. The release includes the full game,
software development kit and sourcecode. All permission for Transfusion has
been granted by Monolith Productions and Infogrames, Inc..

The Transfusion download and more information can be found at

I am downloading it now.

Meanwhile, did anybody bother to rewrite/hack/reverse-engineer/port the Build engine to Win32? I know it's quite an obsolete engine, but I would love to play Duke3D, Blood and Shadow Warrior on 2000 or XP without having to climb on mirrors...

Since the Blood source code was never released, there is no win32 port, some people have had limited success with getting Blood to run on XP. Check the planetblood.com forums. I have seen a couple of workarounds there from time to time.

Then I'll be impressed.
