That One Thing
Planting the dynamite on the Gold Rush bank vault doors with twenty seconds on the clock while your field ops teammate calls in an airstrike on the incoming Allied defense.
TrueCombat: Elite (TC:E) is the long-running Enemy Territory conversion that throws out class-based Wolfenstein fantasy for a military simulator: weapon handling, hitboxes, and objective modes closer to early Call of Duty mixed with Counter-Strike, running on ET maps. Close Quarters Battle (CQB) is the companion indoor ruleset packaged with current community installers.
The live version is TC:E 0.49b. Classic 32-bit ET mods still matter here — ET: Legacy's x86 build is the engine community installers bundle, because x64 ETL will not load 32-bit mods. PlayBound's default ET: Legacy edition stays the stock etmain client; this edition is the TC:E installer path, not a replacement for vanilla ET.
There is no single upstream zip PlayBound can fetch. Community all-in-one installers (ET: Legacy + TC:E 0.49b + CQB 0.223 + optional maps) are what players actually use. This edition opens that download page.
Checking…
Vouched for by established community members, not yet PlayBound tested.
No. Keep PlayBound's ET: Legacy edition for vanilla etmain. TC:E is a separate install that bundles its own ETL x86 client plus the tcetest mod.
Not for this mod. TC:E 0.49b is 32-bit. Community installers ship ETL x86 for that reason.

Modern 64-bit open-source engine with modern OpenGL, widescreen, and server downloader.
