Weird. I used the shareware CD to install the full version. It extracted from a self-extracting exe to the quake directory. I then installed GlQuake and off I went!

Well I got it to install using the install.bat. But it runs like crapola.

Got lines of wrong textures and wavey. Not playable. But I tried to go online to play and total complete lockup. Not sure if its worth the effort.

well, for me to install i do:

-CMD (Command Line)

mode con cp select=850

 

And then run the batch file

 

Bu to really play you must have WInquake or Glquake

I figured out why it locked up when connecting to internet server, Firewall. Fixed. But I dont know dos so not sure I know or could do it how u say. Just wondering if the way I installed could be reason it runs like DooDoo on a VooDoo. And I agree I deffinitley play GLQuake or not at all. But this is mostly for my son who loves Q1 and since I switched to Win2k he has been out of luck and still is basicly.

Thanks fellows
