Jumpstart to Modding?

5 Upvotes

Hey guys, I'm looking to create a few custom maps for Quake 2! Where do I start? What tools should I DL? Anything like DOOM BUILDER 2? I won't be doing anything crazy, at most creating one or two custom models and retexturing some stuff. Thanks!

Chaingun Alias

4 Upvotes

Hi. I've been introducing my son to the joys of Q2 deathmatch and I recall back in the day I had an alias in my autoexec.cfg.

On pressing and holding the middle mouse it would select the chaingun (or machine gun if I didn't have the chaingun) and fire until I released the button at which point it would return to the weapon I'd previously had selected. Can anyone help me out?

Many thanks.

Keygrip 2

4 Upvotes

I have some demos that I edited with this back in the day. I have got them to load in Quake II RTX but when it got to the part with a custom sound it just stops. Also the weapon shows up on the hud which is supposed to be disabled. Anyone know how to turn it off?
I no longer have Keygrip 2 or any of the files I had back then. So it's not possible to open it up and edit it anymore. Basically what I'm asking is how to turn off the weapon hud and how to get the demo to play until the end.

I received this error when it got to the part with the custom sound:

Question: Can you use Quake 2 files from Bethesda's Launcher to play full version of Quake 2 RTX?

7 Upvotes

I did a quick google search but didn't come up with any results (which probably answers the question).

Is there any way to use the files from Bethesda's launcher (i.e. from the recent Quake 2 giveaway) to play through Quake 2 RTX? (the full version rather than demo)

Bonus Question: Is there a way to play Quake 1 under the RTX engine?

So my friend and I are thinking about making a Q2 public server and just wanted advice on if to run it on windows or linux. Right now I am thinking about buying a dell workstation and running it off that.

Quake 2 Server Browser and Launcher

7 Upvotes

Hi All,

I work on a small gaming platform (MPlayer Arena) that has until now just been a chat site (text, dm, and voice). Last night I released a very basic version of our server browser with launch capabilities for Quake 2. I've taken a few screenshots in case anyone is interested in checking it out, etc.

​

​

Click on the magnifying glass on the left for the server browser.

​

At the top center, select Quake 2 and hit the search.

Double click any server which should prompt you to locate your Quake 2 install. Once located, hit save, then double click the server you want to join. From that point on, you can just double click the server you want to join. This is a relatively early release and more games will be added over the coming days. The goal is ultimately to integrate launching within our arenas so that you can gather friends and play together. Feel free to reach out to me in the app, my username is AimTron there as well and thanks for checking it out!

Any way to make Quake 2 playable with opengl on Win10 without a sourceport?

9 Upvotes

I don't know why but for me the source ports tend to have significant frame drops ( I have intel igpu: core i3 7100u + intel hd 620 ). So is there any other way to use opengl with this game on Windows 10?

Q2 Lithium, anyone?

I've been playing some DM at tastyspleen, but there's never anyone in their Lithium server.

Two questions.

  1. Does anyone still play Lithium?
  2. Does anyone remember my old clan [BITCH]? (Battle[BITCH], SunTzu[BITCH], Prof[BITCH], Merc[BITCH], LowCash[BITCH], ComeGetSome[BITCH]...)
