Re: Quake 1 now running!

Some detailed maps and many mods demand more than the default 8 Meg Memory Heap. To run those maps you will need to add a command line variable to the command line to increase this to .... say 16 Megs (havent run into anything needing more than 16).

For your example above you might try launching like this :
sdlquakepxd -mem 16 +map dragon

Or you could modify (as root) the sdlquakepxd script in /usr/bin to add that command switch automatically.

btw, running it from the menu is great but when i used the personal launcher to run it, it doesn't come fullscreen not even the command sdlquake -winsize 800 480 -fullscreen helped.

Not sure if you figured this out but the normal way to launch is using the sdlquakepxd command. The old sdlquake script is still there but too slow to use for most purposes so i removed menu link for it.

For ready2run version it stores data files in /usr/lib/sdlquake/id1

Re: Quake 1 now running!

Not sure if anyone is checking this thread, but my wife just bought me a 810 for xmas and I was trying to install this app. I have the Quake series for PC, but I can't seem to get the game to run on the 810. I have a mmc and installed the map files on there, but when I installed the app for mmc external it did not run. Do I need to install the ready to run first and then overlay the mmc? Can someone walk me through this install?

Thanks

If its on the Internal memory card then use the mmc2 version and if on the Removable memory version then use the mmc1 version.

You could open xterm and type sdlquakepxd and hit enter to load manually and see what error messages might be displayed.

The easiest way to setup is probably to rename quake directory (to keep files around), then download and extract my shareware data archive to the root of your mmc, test it to make sure it runs, then copy your pak files into that shareware directory for full version.

My shareware data should include my custom autoexec.cfg file for proper keybindings also.

If it still doesnt work, then run sdlquakepxd in xterm (as mentioned above) and post the error message.

Also the 810's touchscreen seems to have a little more resolution than the n800 which i tuned it for so you might want to go into options and lower mouse speed by 1 or 2 ticks to reduce the stylus look gitteriness.

Re: Quake 1 now running!

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this but how about if you could double-tap the screen to jump? Jumping on the N800 is a bit clumsy.

Re: Quake 1 now running!

How can I see the system directories/files in the file manager to edit the CFG?

Re: Quake 1 now running!

Try :
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/emelfm2/

If you installed the ready2run version then run emelfm2 as root from xterm so you have permission to edit cfg files.
