Is QuakeWorld still the way to play Quake 1 online, or is their a
new program these days that everyone uses? I was looking online, and
seen the QuakeWold client development has stopped at v2.3 from 1998.

Hi Larry,
Yes, 2.30 is the current client-side version. This includes the GL
version also. Servers are up.

http://equake.quakeworld.nu/
This is a complete package which includes FuhQuake along with the All Seeing
Eye and various other useful files, tools and utilities.

FuhQuake is the most up-to-date and commonly-used version of QuakeWorld at
the moment. I think some tournaments in Europe and elsewhere may actually
require it to enter (along with an associated security module).
http://www.fuhquake.net/ (old site) or http://fuhquake.quakeworld.nu/ (new
site)

(Network access to quakeworld.nu from the U.S. seems poor at the moment, not
sure why, and fuhquake.net seems to be gone entirely. Similarly, online
Quake activity seems to have taken a nosedive, coinciding with the
near-simultaneous release of Half-Life 2, Doom III, and Halo 2; sometimes
these dips in activity are at least partly temporary, until people get bored
with the new games and go back to the old.)

But for routine online play, the last version of QuakeWorld should still
work, I suppose.
