New person help

[RustySpoon]

Does anyone have a one-stop site for downloading all the mods/maps people host around here? Just got wind of this project, and can't really connect to any servers as I can't find the proper maps in the "maps" download folder

Also, no mod downloads in the downloads section

Has anyone resurrected the ORIGINAL team fortress?I remember it started as a Q1 mod

[kimp]

Yes,

You can go to http://www.quake1.tk
and click Files.

It has all the mod files/map pack downloads there.

Also theres an original netquake team fortress server at
quake.thisserversucks.com:26002.

You'll have to download the team fortress installer at http://www.quake-1.com/files/modfiles/nqtf-setup.exe

[RustySpoon]

thankyou.

i love you.

also, i keep getting missing Prog/whtev.file

missing model files?

[Disco]

which mod did you download? It is probably better to start off with ProQuake, get that working and go from there.

[RustySpoon]

using JoeQuake, but I have Proquake.

the error popped up on newdm, and also for CTF servers.

hopefully i can figure out the TF server

Downloading the NewDM map pack files
at http://www.filefront.com/16243319/newdm_maps.zip
should solve the missing prog for NewDM.

Also for ctf, downloading the CTF map pack at
http://www.clanhdz.com/files/quake/3wctfc.zip
should solve the missing prog for CTF.

For CTF unzip it to a folder called ctf in your q1 folder,
then add -game ctf when running the q1 client.

[RustySpoon]

thanks for your patience thus far.

what's all this about running the q1 client? i just double click on proquake. are you guys executing your mods from command prompt or something?

batch files

Quake.bat:

glPro400.exe -zone 1024 -game Arena

[RustySpoon]

ah cool i think i get that part now.
http://www.clanhdz.com/files/quake/3wctfc.zip did not fix the previous issue though, v_spike.mdl is still a missing prog when i try to join up for CTF

EDIT:

I actually HAVE this file in my progs folder, btw. any idea why the clilent cannot find?

Would you say your command line in your batch file is?:

glPro400.exe -zone 1024 -game 3wctfc

Where your CTF MOD sits in the folder 3wctfc within the Quake folder?

[RustySpoon]

nagative, i've got it all unzipped into "ctf" as a folder

my batch file says thus:

glpro400.exe -zone 1024 -game ctf

[RustySpoon]

ok ok...i did a little experimenting. just made a copy of the original Q95.bat and named it CTF.bat, line is this:
joequake -game ctf%1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

and it works! starts it up with the skins/console graphics

but i'm still getting the missing progs errors =(((

[MasterSplinter]

I'm not sure of the next step.



Maybe one of the dudes from the social group: 3wave CRCTF Players might chime in.

[RustySpoon]

rofl at your pic.

right, i'm just gonna reinstall and go through the readme a little more carefully, will update.

i had the v_spike.mdl in one directory, i merely put it into id1/progs and that fixed that.

now i'm missing OTHER mdl's that weren't included in the downloads from the threewave packs.

maybe the DL pack is just incomplete? bets are it's on my side, but i dunno what else to do =P

Can try this: Rename Pak0.pak and Pak1.pak in the ctf folder to Pak2.pak and Pak3.Pak, respectively.
Then copy those .pak files to the id1 folder.

It should now load all the .mdls and prog files.
