Quake 2 quad damage on Linux?
Well, i got quake 2 to work nicely on Linux, and now i'm planning to buy quake 2 quad damage, in other words, all the mission packs as well. Are the mission packs also playable (supported) in Linux natively like quake 2?
Thanks -NSKL |
I'm happy to say: ofcourse! If you've got the quake2 binary working, there can't be any problem to install the mission packs.
To install them, just follow the instructions how to. |
This is indeed great news!
I foresee a LOOONG quake session in my near future. Thanks answering! -NSKL |
Sorry to be the rain on your sunny day , but ( don't you just hate buts :)
im pretty sure that is not the case as the quake2 game ai was implemented in a <whatever>.dll for windows and <whatever>.so for linux so unless the specific add on pack had a linux port or of this <whatever>.dll it wont run in *native* linux , though i suppose you could resort to wine. move on to quake3, there's heaps of great mods for it , im pretty sure it does not suffer from the dll problem as far as ive been able to tell. Guess ID wised up :) cheers |
Whoops ... I'm sorry. I indeed forgot that you've got more sorts of game binaries for quake2.
Quake and Q3A don't seem to suffer from that, do they? btw: If you want something you'll be getter a looong Q3A future from, try playing (read: winning :D) all levels on Hardcore skill with a mod called InstaGib. |

Watching you play it made me remember how much I loved it... So many years have passed since I played it, what an experience... :D |
Well, by reading the README of the quake port i downloaded (quake2-r0-0.14.1) Both 'The reckoning' and 'ground zero' mission packs should be supported. Nothing else left but buy one of the mission packs and try it out. Wish me luck!
