Is There A Demo Of Quake II
« on: November 28, 2005, 01:40:19 PM »
hey guys i'm wondering if there's a demo of quake 2 out there somewhere.  I quite fancy buying the game, but am One of the unlucky guys who own's a PPC 160mhz (hopefully upgrade it next year at some point) So i was thinking that it wouldnt run that great. So if there isnt a demo has anyone ran this game on a PPC 160mhz? and does it run ok?

that would be great trgse :-D I finally got a translation of the german read me for the warp Q2.exe

Quote
QUAKE2 Port v0.5 (W3D PPC)

Copy QUAKE2 file please in drawer BASEQ2 and a BASEQ2: produce assign.  

per Shell with:

stuck 1000000 QUAKE2

Open QUAKE2.  

HP: if the screen grey remain should set please the gl_fashions in the file config. cfg on zero (set gl_fashion "0")

In FastFileSystem set the Buffer on 1500




But I have had no joy in getting it to work, All that i get is I run the q2 exe and it takes 10meg of memory and does nothing. What does he mean by a BASEQ2: produce assign ????

This version was created by Frank Menzel
