No, it isn't. To check for yourself:

1. In Xfire, go to Tools > Options, select the games tab, double-click the "Not Installed" tab
2. See if Tremulous is on the list.

Also, if you haven't done it already, email newgames@xfire.com and request that Tremulous be added. Make sure you put the link to the Trem website somewhere in the email too, and mention how there are lots of people who play it.

I dont agree with that one.

If playing a game who uses the Quake 3 engine means you re playing Quake  3, then you re playing Q3 when you play : Medal of Honor, Call of Duty, SW Jedi Knight : Jedi Academy, and all the others games who used this popular engine...

sound silly when you say it that way doesn t it ? ;)

Yeah, that's not "how to use xfire with trem".. That's "how to make xfire register tremulous as quake3 arena" o_O

Hey I never thought about renaming the .exe... I guess you could make Trem register as whatever game you wanted? Of course the scoreboards would be screwed, but it'd be cool to make it think you were playing starcraft :P
