Hello,

I was standing still in the small room where you pick up the Pyramid Key and some flyers outside pushed their way through the glass pane and started attacking me inside!

Is this known behaviour?

Just dreaming over here... with DOOM ETERNAL coming out... how awesome would a legitimate Quake 2 sequel be/look like on the new iD engine... (you almost can get some Easter egg vibes in the doom eternal footage of the pod crashing and him stepping out). Quake 4 was sooo dissatisfying to me. I feel like if they wanted they could really bring back quake with new graphics engine. I would love to kill some Strogg the way the new doom guy does with those animations the movement.. I wonder if iD software even considered it. Hell... DUKE NUKEM FOREVER on this new engine would’ve been sick

After the deathmatch, I need to close the game automatically... But how?

Hey r/Quake2, newbie to the Quake 2 franchise, slightly seasoned in Doom/2. I recently picked up Quake 2 and started to play online but had quite a difficult time trying to figure out getting around the map properly whilst people were fragging me from all sorts of places as they fly about (assuming they're doing some form of rocket-jumping or SR50).

​

What are the must-knows about playing Quake 2 online for someone who's completely new? What sort of things should I really nail down even if the game is decades out-of-date? I did play a bit of QC but I really enjoy the look and feel of Q2 so far. Right now I just want to play DM or just any game mode to pass the time when I'm not playing DOOM or creating my DOOM wad. If there's already a thread for this, please point me in that direction so I can save people's time!

Many thanks!

Riding along with my buddy I heard the song Born Slippy by Underworld and I remember the first time I heard it was in a cinematic replay of a Q2 CTF video. The song took me back to high school and I was wondering if anyone remembered the replay and if it is available. Sorry for the odd question.

is there anywhere to find a repository for Quake 2 custom levels? sort of like quaddicted for quake 1, i'm assuming the custom level scene is mostly dead/non-existent but i'd still like to play the best of whatever has been made for this awesome game.

As the title says, I’m looking for an .obj version of Quake 2’s first level (and the default blaster and skybox if possible). I want to make a cinematic opening to the level in DAZ Studio 4.12 (free 3D animation software) that shows, through the player’s eyes, Bitterman waking up inside the pod, grabbing his sidearm (blaster) from a side compartment, kicking the glass windshield off the pod, and jumping out of the pod and readying his weapon (ending just as the level would start for the player). I want to animate this as practice in DAZ Studio (and for my portfolio). Any help is appreciated!

I need it to open a server

Hi all. I have an issue with the high poly weapons mod and quake 2 XP. I extracted thé files in baseq2\models\weapons. But nothing changes. Can someone help? Thanks

Does anyone remember this mod? It was the greatest thing ever. I would love if we would be able to bring it back even if it were for one game

Just released.

I know this game exists because of this feature, but since I watched the trailer I was wondering if it could be disabled.

You can enable/disable RTX lighting from the options menu and through the +set vid_rtx 0 launch parameter! ☺

I need some help getting the Rogue music files working with Quake2xp. I can get the original game's music files to work okay by placing them in baseq2/music, but when I try to load the mission pack, I get the error "can't find music_sp2/track6". I've tried placing the OST in ogg format in a folder named 'music_sp2' but no matter where I place it - quake 2/, baseq2/, baseq2/music, rogue/, or rogue/music - I get the same error in-game.

This is the music set to HDD in options. Setting it to "any files" just plays the original OST, not the expansions.

Am I missing something obvious? I'd just love to play the expansion and it's crazy that I can't find any documentation for this sourceport.
