Q4Max is a modification for Quake 4 that has been created to make the game more suited for competitions.The most significant addition is the implementation of a multi-pov mode which allows spectators to view all members of a team at once. Coaches will be able to get a complete view of their team, Freezetag players will be able to view the surviving members of their team when they become frozen. Multi-pov is not restricted to teamgames though - it may be used in a duel to watch both players at once.In addition to multi-pov coaching, this release includes a number of improvements for the teamgame experience, such as display of average team ping, and for players to lock and readyup their team without a referee.There are also a number of changes for demo playback too. There is new functionality to improve the process of capturing AVIs from netdemos in Quake 4. There are also controls for demo playback to make it easier to skip through the demo.
Server demos have been updated significantly - the "follow" and "multipov" commands can now be used as if you were a real spectator, as well as allowing the scoreboard to be viewed at any time, and many more issues fixed.This release also comes with Mac OSX support - Mac players now can connect and play on the same servers alongside Windows and Linux users.

Julie Stepan mingles with the nerds waiting in the BYOC registration line. If you haven't been to QuakeCon before, you'd be surprised of the amount of crazy people which turn out for the event. We have some costumed crazies and a guy who looks like John Carmack.
