1. Changed source files (5) ()

heavy changes: gl_vidnt.c
very minor changes: host.c, menu.c, menu.h, vid.h

2. Example glquake.exe ()

Due to the complexity of the changes in gl_vidnt.c you may be better off using a file comparison tool to assist like [free + gpl] or another comparison tool () to assist adding this in to an engine rather than using the tutorial. Here are some WinMerge screenshots, but there are several file comparison tools that do a good job.

'uknown command: toggle'.

other than that, an ATI driver will 90% bug on you. Not instantly, but perhaps after a few map changes.
Run it windowed and just change the framebuffer size, and the next textures that are loaded (next map?) will be corrupted.

This is the method that carmack reported that *all* cards bugged out on in one way or another.

A more reliable way is to compleatly shut down the opengl renderer, and create a fresh new context. You'll need to load new textures, but quake doesn't really use anything that matters.
