1 WikiAdmin 1 __[BZFlag|http://bzflag.org/]__ is a 3D (OpenGL) multi-player tank battle game that allows users to play against each other in a networked environment.

3 The latest version runs on Windows 95/98/NT/2000, Irix 5.3 or higher, __Linux for i386__ and PPC, and Solaris. All versions are compatible, meaning users on different platforms can play together. To play you have to connect to a server; there are several on the internet or you can start one locally.

5 Think capture the flag, but with tanks. It's based around an old SGI game called Battlezone (BZ.. you see). Basically the idea is you drive around in a tank, and you have to shoot other tanks. Along the way you can pick up flags that change the game somewhat - some make you go faster, some slower, some make you invisible or able to drive through buildings or change your gun into a laser etc...

6 JamesBraid 20 BZFlag is very similar to Point Blank, a tank game for [SGI] machines running [IRIX].

22 Point Blank was ([IMNSHO]) a lot more fun to play - there were three different tanks and an aeroplane which you could use, along with different types of missiles.

24 The terrain also had hills.
