Ok so I just got a new rig (well newer than my old one...) and I cant get Quake to install on XP. Anyone out there know of a not too extravagant custom engine that I can just drop the pak files into? Ive got Armagon & Dissolution Id like to replay as well.

is a little fog. Seen some screenshots of an addon/mod that had some nice fog effects. Nehahra?) Still I am not complaining, Fitz delivers the best visual quality Quake Ive ever seen. Now to try installing the mission packs!

I was just checking out Nehahra's website looks like a nice mod I will be sure to get it. Im not into DM like I used to be but I still enjoy the hell out of some SP action. At one time I had something along the lines of 350-400 DM/CTF/TF maps on my HD. And probably a third that in SP maps. Its going to be fun digging all those up again!

tons of quality sp has been released in recent years, thanks to the guys who frquent this board.
Check out the sites teamshambler and underworldfan for them.
Also, I dont have a link because func wont let me load "view all threads" but starbuck released excellent higher resolution base textures that work with both fitzqauke and aguire's engines.

The monsters look cool. The rest don't really excite me though. I guess I'll just have to wait for Romero's Slipgate MMO.

Demo Recording In Quake Episodes

What is the way to record demos on consecutive maps of a quake episode? I wanted to record demos of the warpspasm pack but I don't know how to do it without loosing weapons and ammo from previous levels. It is possible in joequake but how about other engines?

spanning several maps cannot be done in my engines. But with my upcoming ConvDem 1.4 utility, you can join demos if they have the same protocol.
I just tried and it seems to make it possible to record separate demos of each level (saving/restoring at level end/begin) and then join the demos.
Let me know and I'll send the beta to you.

Only Joequake/Qrack can do (as far as I know). It would be nice in Fitz/aguirRe's!

Thanks, but this sounds too complicated :)
Maybe joequake will just work with warpspasm since it succesfully handled marcher and bastion

But wasn't before. I'm stuck in some backwater of a backwater with a crappy connection - but started working properly a couple of weeks ago.
Ankh: I'd love to see demos of Warp, if you can sit there for the four-five hours necessary to create them. It's not an easy pack to play, kind of like a huge Quake steak.
Sielwolf was talking about doing a speedrun pack of demos, but it seems the SDA guys aren't interested in Quoth.

All maps in Warp are possible without weapon bringovers, though you might have to do a little bit of planning/find all secrets etc.
@Ijed: sure, I�d gladly record something, might take a while though.
Btw I think Stubgaard misunderstood me, I was just talking about doing demos for fun, not for SDA.

Maybe you missed the post in the Site Help thread, but I made a change on April 24 that I think fixed it.
Please try it and if there are still problems, let me know. Thanks :)
