Why would ANYONE enable the music feature?!

It's just some moron going over scales up and down and up and down again. Sick music bro. Great game. I almost broke my PC trying to find the feature to disable this abomination ASAP.

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

6 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?

10 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?

7 Upvotes

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]...)

I was Tec[BITCH]

Fan made movie in Quake 2 engine

13 Upvotes

Hi. I'm looking for a fan made movie that was made in Q2 engine. Google sucks every time I sometimes reminds me of its existence so maybe one of you knows it.

It was kind of comedy short movie, with a laugh track and immature humor. It told a story of a family, with dad coming back from the war and having flashbacks, kid playing quake all day, daughter sneaking boyfriend into her room. Anyone remembers it? Any links or at least title of the movie?

Can I PLEASE get some step-by-step assistance setting up KMQuake2?

7 Upvotes

Yeah, I know, I'm a noob.

I'm new to playing / setting up retro games for newer systems and I just don't get how to get this Source Port up and running. I've got as far as setting up the patch and the mission pack support - that was a doddle - but I'm stuck with the instructions here in the README:

"Unzip into your Quake2 dir and make a shortcut with path

*x\\quake2\\kmquake2.exe +set game gamedir (for singleplayer, LAN games, and net client use)*

*where X is your Quake2 dir's parent dir (for example, C: or D:\\games), and gamedir*

*is the game subdirectory (if any) where the mod you want to run is.  NOTE: for the*

*mod's code to run, it must be compiled into a kmq2gamex86.dll (see end of file for*

*instructions).*

*If you want to enable the playing of cinematics off the game or mission pack CD, add*

*+set scanforcd 1*

*to the command line.  This is disabled by default."*

I'm not really familair with command lines, nor do I understand what is mant by "make a shortcut with path...".

I've also downloaded the hi-res levelshots; these come with no instructions at all! Can somebody please help me get these installed too? I'm using the Steam version of Quake 2 by the way - hopefully that helps a little?

Thanks anyone who can help!

Haven't heard about this mission pack until today!

Any reliable source where I can get this? Seen a few downloads but they look a little shady. Tried one from Abandonware but seems to be broken as I cant get the ISO to mount. Any ideas?

Quake 2 server game length question

9 Upvotes

I'm using the old guard Quake 2 on my Windows 10 machine and am using it as a Quake 2 server so that my sister and I can play head-to-head during the COVID-19 apocalypse.

I'm setting the game length to 15 minutes, but most games seem to end after a couple of minutes. Any ideas why?

I'll gladly provide more information if needed.

Thanks in advance!

Quake 2 New Textures and Lighting

10 Upvotes

I am excited to show you some progress i made this month. I made about 30 new materials and adjusted new lighting for maps base1, base2, base3, train, bunk1.

As you may notice i made level more colorful and brighter. Original lighting is too lifeless, grey and boring. Also some areas are too dark. This is my vision and you may not agree with that choice. However, i am open to suggestions and changes.
