Ok for all those who have the "expected version 6" error, try the following:
Download the following file:
ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/qu...elease_132.exe
Install it in windows even if you have not got quake 3 installed, When it mentions punkbuster just say no.
Navigate to "program files/quake 3 arena/baseq3"
Copy all the PK3 files in that folder to the "home/user/.q3a/baseq3" folder on your n900 (overwriting any files of the same name).
Play Quake 3
Let me know if it works. Thx.
Edit: Changed the directory for the n900

here's how you let maemo ioquake3 run in the n900's native res of 800x480, as opposed to the 640x480 it runs in by default. in order to do so, 3 variables have to be set.
r_customwidth 800
r_customheight 480
r_mode -1
this can be done in a couple of different ways:
- method 1: edit /home/user/.q3a/baseq3/q3config.cfg, find the variables and change them.
- method 2: edit autoexec.cfg and add the following:
seta r_customwidth 800
seta r_customheight 480
seta r_mode -1
if you're not sure where autoexec.cfg is located, open a terminal;
sudo gainroot
cd /
find . -name autoexec.cfg
- method 3: add it to the command line, my /usr/bin/quake3 file looks like this (i use a non default install path btw, replace it with your own, i can't remember what the default one is). this involves more editting, only do this if you're comfortable doing so:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/ioquake3.arm +set fs_basepath /home/user/MyDocs/games/quake3 +set r_customwidth 800 +set r_customheight 480 +set r_mode -1 "$*"
i've changed /user/share/applications/hildon/quake3.desktop to point to /usr/bin/quake3, but you can set them in quake3.desktop as well, keep it pointed directly to /usr/bin/ioquake3.arm, followed by the command line options. edit: ioquake3.desktop might be the default desktop file i think.
adding them to autoexec.cfg or the command line requires you to start the game, exit and restart q3 in order for the changes to come into effect. (on a desktop pc one could change these variables in the console and do a "/vid_restart".)
off topic, here are command line options to run sdlquake and sdlquake2 in 800x640 too: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...025#post578025

Has anyone noticed Quake 3 slowing down (a lot) when switching to the native resolution of the N900 screen?
I must say it already looks very impressive and sharp at 640x480.
Will there any difference visually? Or is this a tweak that could only further slow down Quake 3?
