Essential improvements

Mechanized Assault & eXploration Reloaded

A open source remake of M.A.X., it provides modern system support along with updated networking. If a full copy of the original game is available, the original game textures can be used. Otherwise, free texture packs are available to make the remake standalone.

Note that it is currently multiplayer only and there is no single player support.

It can be found here.
