[Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

As these two games have been ported on all imaginable platforms, it qould be nice to have them on N900 in their full glory.

I saw the port from OS 2008 and I was kinda disappointed by the lack of... well, Open Arena experience.

I'm posting this because I just tried Open Arena with accelerometer control and it was completely revelatory :rolleyes:

In the ol' symbian days, we had them both (Q1&Q2), with accelerometer control, but what makes Open Arena stay apart, and so much more fun, is the auto aiming.

Here's the link for the sources of Quake 1&2 with HWA. I hope someone will consider bringing them to N900 with:
-HWA
-Accelerometer control
-Auto aiming

so we can yet again re-experience these legendary games in a revolutionary way :D

What the hell is open arena?!

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

Its open version of Quake 3 (But you can install the real Quake 3 too)

Quake 1 has been converted. Its in devel.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

@flameboy
it's an amazing shooter, similar to Quake 3

@Snaps
with hwa?

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

Hello I loved this games. I played both Quake 1 and Quake2 I like both versions.

I used to play rocket arena mod on quake 2 for hours, ah; quakespy..

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

I also would like to see quake 2.
The single player mode made it one of my favorite FPS.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

yeah, quake2 (of course with hardware acceleration) would be great, enjoyed it very much on the N810

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

the Chaos Mod for Quake II was fantastic.

would lloove for these to get ported.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

mods are probably not going to be happening in the Quake 2 port, not unless you're playing as a client only, or they have actually been recompiled for linux (and I believe for the arm arch as well). Quake 1 is still the greatest fps of all time :) I've been playing with SDL quake since I bought my N900. Ill definately have to look into this new version...

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

Do you mean Maemo Extras-devel repository? I would like to run Quake 1 (and Quake 2) on my N900, with HWA :) But i haven't seen any Quake 1 or 2 apps in app.manager.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

...not anymore... Ith was there, I know, I've tried it, but it was the N8XX version with no hwa.

I'd try quake 3 (ioquake) but I'm sure it isn't as well optimized (control wise) as open arena.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

Hello,

Now that OpenGL ES 1.1 is available for the N900, is anyone working on porting Quake and Quake 2? I have Quake Trilogy installed on my N82 and would love to have the Trilogy on my N900. If I was as tech saavy as some of you all, I would do it myself and share with the community. I am willing to donate to whoever is able to make working versions. The S60 FP1 HW Accelerated versions are fantastic.

Thank you for your time.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

you could run quake 2 on psx4all :)

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

I read your message before I posted and what you supplied is a way to get a version of Quake from another device to work on the N900.

What I and others are asking is for a Maemo 5 version of the PC Q and QII just in the same fashion as the Q3 from the repositories that takes advantage of the N900 hardware.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

I have Quake installed and I am trying to runthe game full screen. I see on the page you linked that I have to edit the config file to hardcode the resolution but I cannot access the config file.

Is there anyone available to help me edit the config file? If I copy and paste the info that is in the link above, it doesn't work, even with root and sudo gainroot.

Thank you in advance!

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

both quake and quake2 are available for the N900. all of this stuff can be manually installed, bit of a pain, but it all works. one only needs the binaries below and the demo or retail game data files.

many thanks to both pipeline and qwerty12!

being a quakeworld and quake2 player myself, what i'd personally love to see, are arm ports of the greatly enhanced clients used in the competative quake and quake2 communities, with opengl support. sources of these windows/linux clients are ofcourse available as demanded by the gnu gpl.

anyone up for doing it? :)

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

Thank you for the informative post. How do I type that in the command line to resize the screen?

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

open xterm, type in:

sdlquake -winsize 800 480

hit enter

if you're talking about the console in game, I'm not sure it works. As the same handle would be used to resize the game in options, and when I tried to adjust the screen size in options it had no effect.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

actually, I agree... :D

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

using the console in quake for any input involving numbers etc is quite a pain, its best to set all variables by using the command line or editing config files.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

One other downside to this method of getting quake 1 and 2, is that packages are not optified. Bit of a bummer. If someone could repackage Quake SDL, that would be sweet.

F2thaK, are you using a bluetooth zeemote in your youtube video of Quake on the N900?

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

WOW!!!!! That is exactly what I needed!!!!! Thank you!

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

http://www.file-upload.net/download-...quake.deb.html

This is an Optified Version of Quake 1 !!! A user on a german forum made it, so thanks goes to him ;)
Screensize should be optified too

And here is a customized config. controls are optified for german layout, don't know how us layout fits to that...

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

any chance of these turning up on extras?

my thanks to that industrious german. :)

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

I cannot install new quake from the German site. Even with the error it still doesnt install.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

App manager will say it did not install but when you go to your more menu you will see the icon there.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

Turns out the reason I couldnt install it was because my deb file was corrupt. I downloaded it again and now everthing works. My only gripe now is that it seems to be the shareware version. I have Quake Trilogy so I was using my files for the other sdlquake MMC and it would load the full game from my quake folder. How can I get this version to load my pak files?

Thank you a million for all of your help and to anyone else that can help.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

Put your pak files in /opt/sdlquake/lib/sdlquake/id1/


Sorry for bumping this thread but I have a problem with this quake version:
I have a french N900 (AZERTY keyboard) http://natisbad.org/N900/img/n900-az...ard-scaled.png and there is no UP and DOWN keys, FN + RIGHT/DOWN don't work in sdlquake so I can perfectly start a new game and play once I remaped the in-game keys for my keyboard layout but i can't navigate in the menus without changing my keyboard layout to English, wich is boring, so is there a trick to remap menus keys for quake ?

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

on a completely unrelated note, i still have nightmares about the Vores from Q1. and that's no joke.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

Could someone PLEASE help me out?

I've installed sdlquake, and everything is fine except one thing. I go into the menu to change the controls but there's no key that takes me back to the main menu so I can't start a game with customized controls...

I've tried all keys, and I've looked in the autoexec.cfg... no joy!!

How do I go back to the main menu after customizing the controls in the options menu?

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

shift + backspace or fn + backspace

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

Thanks but that doesn't work for me... that works for you? Keyboard is US layout?

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

anyone figure out how to save games ob sdl quake?

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

You bug the developer until he does this
http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/...Locale_Problem. That's how it got into UQM and PrBoom.

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

quake 2 from extras-devel wont run on pr1.2? any ideas of how to get it to work?

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

I have Quake 2 working fine on PR1.2
Did you copy pak0.pak from original game to /home/user/.quake2/baseq2 folder?

Re: [Maemo5] Quake 1 and Quake 2 - forgotten?
 

these games would be nice to play with external keyboard and mouse. is it possible to use mouse and keyboard at the same time yet ?
