Sincest Features

Sincest is designed for for people settings up a server, for LAN games (servers and clients) and for single players trying out mods & maps. It can be used to play online, but GameSpy is much better suited than Sincest.

Some of Sincest many features are:

• Automatically lists all maps you have, including those in pak files and allows you to easily select them to start a game on. The maps list has built in auto-complete and can be optionally sorted.
• Maps can be deleted or renamed by Sincest (excluding those in pak files), useful when trying out new maps and finding out that they suck.
• Allows you to easily start you own SiN server (dedicated or listen) by selecting your settings from the easy to use, yet powerful user interface.
• You can also use Sincest to connect to a server and to start a single player game.
