Quake2 AmigaOS-port finally released
« on: September 08, 2002, 03:25:02 AM »
Finally, german coder Frank Menzel ported the very popular 3D-Ego-Shooter Quake 2 for AmigaOS. Requirements: PowerPC, 128 MB RAM, a fast gfx-card and WarpOS.

Source: Amigaplus / GFXBASE

Note:We couldn't test the version (we don't have Quake2 data files) and we also could not find any information or direct download-link regarding the Quake2 Amiga port at the website of Frank Menzel except a news entry in which he mentions the development of his Quake2 port (this entry is from 25.05.05). So try at your own risk (download link below).

Installation:
There's an installation note included in the archive, which is in german, so here's a translation:

QUAKE2 Port v0.5 (W3D PPC)

Please copy quake2 file in the directory baseq2 and create a baseq2: assign

via Shell by typing:

stack 1000000
quake2


Open Quake2.

PS: If the screen goes grey, please set the gl_mode in config.cfg to zero( set gl_mode "0")

If you use FastFileSystem set the buffer to 1500.

If you tried the game the GFX-BASE would appreciate informations, reports and screenshots of you. Please send them to narr@blubb.at We will post the best screenshots and your reports at GFX-BASE. Thank you!

Come on guys!

A little calmness never hurt anyone.

To keep a balanced view in any circle you need both supporters and critics .

Both sides should express their views without getting too personal.

Enough said.
