    It's not, but the DarkPlaces engine [0] reimplements many, if not all, of the realtime shadow features and has an X64 Mac build (but no ARM build, as far as I'm aware), and is still getting active contributions on its Github repo[1].

  • How to develop a game on the DarkPlaces engine?

    Much of DP's development was centered about being a capable engine for new games, while remaining reasonably compatible with Quake. Also, DP's perceived abandonment seems to have been overcome, with DP now being hosted at https://github.com/DarkPlacesEngine/darkplaces with somewhat frequent updates. I guess that Wrath's development may be at play here.
