yeah but how would you get the two games to talk to each other?


Have a TCP/IP stack running (doesn't even need any networking hardware), and connect to localhost.

Run Quake on the workbench screen twice. Start a network game on one (again TCP/IP stack loaded, don't need any network hardware). The other copy *should* connect to localhost without problem.

This should work with any TCP/IP network client/server apps.
