Crowe Checkers v2.0.0 brings physical American/English checkers to RedM/VORP servers with synchronized PvP matches and configurable NPC opponents.
Players sit at a complete in-world board, select physical checker pieces with the mouse, and move across highlighted playable squares while mandatory captures, multi-jumps, crowning, outcomes, and rematches are enforced by the server.

Key Features

Physical Board Experience

  • Complete Physical Board - Start with 12 white and 12 black checker-disc props on an 8x8 board.

  • Direct Board Controls - Select checkers and highlighted destinations with a camera-aligned mouse cursor.

  • Playable-Square Projection - Interaction is limited to the 32 legal dark squares on the physical board.

American Checkers Rules

  • Mandatory Captures - Non-capturing moves are blocked whenever a legal jump exists.

  • Forced Multi-Jumps - The same checker continues jumping until the chosen capture route is complete.

  • Automatic Crowning - Men reaching the opposite home row become short kings automatically.

  • Complete Outcomes - Handles wins, repetition draws, no-progress draws, draw offers, resignation, abandonment, and rematches.
