I hadn't in many years, and practically forgot it existed. Today I was trying to think of the Sauerbraten engine game I used to play, but the name escaped me. Tesseract... then that refreshed my memory that the game was renamed Red Eclipse, where Tesseract is the engine (forked from Sauer)
Come to find that it's even available on Steam for free now, and it's come a long way since I last saw it.
I didn't want it for Steam, so I got the sources from git and noticed that there were commits within hours. Mine is versioned 2.0.1 and there have been more commits since. Possibly gearing up for a 2.0.1 release
I'm not into multiplayer, so I just play "offline practice" (bots). Usually Deathmatch mode, with FFA and Instagib modifiers. There are a lot more maps now, and they look nice, especially with graphics settings on Ultra.
So grab it on Steam, or unpack a binary tarball, or grab the sources
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/redeclipse/base
cd base/src
make
(Should just compile out of the box with no Makefile edits on a normal system... others may need to install packages like SDL2-dev and such)
