Re: Quake 1 now running!
 
I noticed I am getting the postinst error:
maemo-select-menu-location: not found

on my N900 for SDL Quake. Looks like it has been deprecated as per:

Apologies if this is old news.

Hardly surprising, considering this is not for the N900, but for the N8X0 where maemo-select-menu-location exists.

You can try making /usr/bin/maemo-select-menu-location an empty script and chmod +x and installing it should suceed but no guarantees you'll actually get a good experience considering this isn't for the N900.

If I remember correctly, this isn't a critical error. It's just informational. SDLQuake should still show as installed when you query:

dpkg -l | grep -i quake

And yes, this is because you're installing N800 software on an N900. Be sure you're installing the version that packs your data files on mmc1 or else you're gonna fill up your root space really quick.

runs fine on the N900. Definately needs a few updates to make it more playable. but speed is good, and remapping keys helps. The source of the N810 version available for me to play with?

And maybe adding HWA too, it's a shame to see it like this:(

if anyone is going to update quake for the n900, the best way to go by far, would be to use ezquake as a base, the client used in the competative quakeworld community. and then maybe use some bits and pieces from sdlquake.

Quake 2 port has been uploaded to extra-devel. ^^ it seems to work very well :)

Unortunately it doesn't work nearly as good as open arena.

The game has no HWA so the FPS are mostly below 15 and I haven't yet found a way to use ESC...

If anyone's interested here's the source with HWA for ARM (symbian): http://koti.mbnet.fi/hinkka/Download.html

If I want to play Quake II I need to have pak0.pak file. I've downloaded it but it doesn't work. maybe it is a wrong file. From wher I can download the correct file?

Re: [OS2008] Quake 1 now running!
 
Make sure the pak is with lower case and where its supposed to be.

I also recommended a reboot, that seems to have done it for me.
