Zaero is an unofficial add-on for Quake 2 that has once been sold on CD
-ROM, but is now available for free (Beer) Download e.g. here:

http://www.quakewiki.net/archives/teamevolve/zaero_manual.html

Let's say it is for Quake 2 what Hacx is for Doom 2.

Another one is Juggernaut, but I am not sure if this is available for
free...

Cool thing! I didn't even know this.

Please note that new versions of these engines have been released at
Yamagi's site: the rogue add-on is at 2.02 and the xatrix one at 2.03:

https://github.com/yquake2/rogue/releases
https://github.com/yquake2/xatrix/releases

So, please update the package information in g-d-p accordingly. ;)

Thank you ,

Fabian
