I used to hack around to get the demo to run like the full version (without the sp episodes, but in multiplayed you could play with full version users). but you'd need a new engine for that?Īnother point is that whilst we have nice shiny ports of the Quake 1 engine with high res textures and all, I have to play Quake 2 in good ol' software mode because the low-res Quake 2 textures look really blotchy and smeary in OpenGL hardware mode. Does anyone know of any way to get it working? I'm thinking rip to MP3. Now, Quake 2 wouldn't be Quake 2 without the great soundtrack. That is, when playing the disk is going round, but I have no audio cable from the DVD drive to my sound card (crummy integrated AC'97) - the reason being that as far as I can see there is no CD-IN on the motherboard. One problem: it doesn't play CD music digitally.
Quake 2 is one of my all-time favourite games, and even though it refuses to install point-blank on my XP machine ("This game requires a UK registered Operating System" or some such nonsense - which you can get around by just copying the Data folder to your hard drive) I can fire it up quite happily.
