Quake2 (with menus) build available

Although we have Maqii and its great (much better than old quetoo)... i found source for full quake2 with menus so i made a maemo build.

It supports pixel doubling at default 400x240 fullscreen resolution, alternate resolutions including 512x384, 720x420 (fit for windowed), 640x480, 800x480, etc. and cinematics/videos work if you copy those over too (150megs). Multiplayer supports deathmatch, coop, and ctf.

N800/N810 only
MMC2 Version
MMC1 Version

If you don't own the game, but want to play the limited demo data, download this file and extract at root of whichever mmc version you downloaded. The demo data supports three levels, a looping demo (replay), and multiplayer (deathmatch/coop) on those three levels.

It may be a tiny bit slower than maqii but i cant really tell. If your happy with maqii then no need to use this, but if you want full functionality this build is available.

With menus you can alter your keybindings and settings and start multiplayer games. Although you can probably use the limited ingame browser to find lan games, if you wanted to configure XQF game browser to use this you should use these settings for quake 2 game setup :
Command line : /usr/bin/quake2
Working directory : /home/user/.quake2

If your configuration seems wrong, then make sure there are no unwanted autoexec.cfg or config.cfg files on your mmc2 quake2 dir and then run q2reset to revert to default bindings of :

ZoomOut - crouch
Fullscreen - jump
ZoomIn - next weapon
menu - objectives
esc - quake 2 menu

additional 810 bindings :
q : next weap
a : look up
z : look down
p : turn left
backspace : turn right
' : jump
- : prev inventory
+ : next inventory
u : use inventory
ctrl : console

CTF and DM support is in there but you need more than the paks that were on quake2 cd. In case you havent already got those you can grab the windows patch here which is a winzip self extractor... just open with winzip and copy relevant files.

Then you can launch dm from xterm like (i think) :
quake2 +set deathmatch 1 +map q2dm1

or ctf game :
quake2 +set game ctf +map q2ctf1

For ctf on 800 you might need to rebind a key to 'team red' or 'team blue'... on 800 just type those commands at console... i will look into making the ctf menu work with maemo buttons later.

Put any custom config settings in an autoexec.cfg file in the /home/user/.quake/baseq2 or /home/user/.quake2/ctf directories.

w00t, now I can use infinite ammo cheat :D ^-^

Re: Quake2 (with menus) build available

installed quake2-mmc1-3.21-rev11.all.deb

and copy all files from quakte2 (quake2demodata.tar) to mmc1

and follow mmc1/share/quakte2/baseq2 to my IT

but it didn't worked why?

Re: Quake2 (with menus) build available

I made it so that if you download the shareware demo data files in q2demodata.tar.gz (34Megs) to the root of your mmc card and extract it from there, it will create the quake2 directory are subdirectories on that mmc.

So for mmc1 that would end up putting data files in /media/mmc1/quake2/baseq2/pak0.pak

If you still have problems, run the game from xterm by typing quake2 and look for any error messages.

I Want To Run The Demos Too

Please How Can I Watch The Demos/Videos ?

:confused:

Re: Quake2 (with menus) build available

it cant find the data... can you tell me what shows up when you type this command :
ls /media/mmc1/quake2/baseq2

You might try deleting any pak files other than pak0.pak

Shareware data comes with only 1 looping demo which plays automatically... you wont be able to play most other demos because they werent recorded on maps named demo1 demo2 or demo3 even if they look just like base1, 2, 3

Shareware data doesnt have any movies/cinematics.

You could always acquire the full version paks to get full functionality/movies.

You'd need full version for demos (replays) like latenite. If your just curious heres a youtube vid made by vidcapturing it :

Re: Quake2 (with menus) build available

Unrelated to the above problem, i had forgot to put the player models in the quake2demodata.tar.gz. This didnt matter in single player but if you played multiplayer using that demo data, everyone would have been invisible.

So i added those into the quake2demodata.tar.gz archive and you can now play multiplayer with player models (although only three maps to play on).
