Heheh.... QUAKE!


After struggling with Myst and wine.... i decided to give my old quake II cd a try. Guess what: It works. Wonderfully. (Course, i'm not running GLquake.)

Sorry. I just had to brag.

now if only i could get myst going.

you run quake2 with wine? on idsoftware's ftp server, the
source code for quake2 is available for linux too. you can
compile this and add the data from the original CD. runs
much better then emulating windows I can even play it in
OpenGL mode wich wasn't possible with windows!!

... Hmm... will have to try that. Not too much room left on my drive though... Oh well, i can always find stuff to delete. How big is it?
____Edit_____
Actually, where is it, and how does one build it? Is this it? <The Shararchive?> <ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/quake2/source>
