Yay! Quake forum and others keeping it alive!

Thanks all for this cool place.
I last played Quake 9 years ago and only recently decided to bring it back to my fold of games... it's funny I didnt forget the maps at all.

I have one problem I need help/advice with... I cant seem to get up/down pivot functioning om my mouse. There's no way to set that in controls....but do remember clearly my old mouse had full function in all directions.

Now it's just left and right.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hopefully Im just forgetting something simple you might can help me with.



I also remember a weapon upgrade that gave me grappling hook and nailgun upgrade to flame... also CUJO the attack companion dog.
Any links here on that I'd be grateful for info on those too.


THANK YOU so much....I look forwrd to this cool forum!

+mlook i believe is what your looking for

Is that a patch.... or a command I should type in console?

Thank you sir.

yea, type +mlook in the console and you have up/down look with your mouse. As for the upgrade, sounds like a rune.

[charphil]

Thank you both...

very kind.

+rep to each

Thanks again, I have a new question if I may...

The single player I am used to ... well it seems I find myself bored with it and want to try Multiplayer...

A quick walkthrough for me to setup Multiplayer would be apreciated. I found a list of map/servers here I think... Downloads like "quakeone-map-pack-r3" for example...
Do I simply put that in the Quake folder... or do I run that file? Will I need to manually enter info in the Quake console or in multiplayer options?

Huge thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction.

[badaim]

just type connect servername:port in the console.

example: connect speaknow.quakeone.com:26000

depending on what mod your playing you'll need to download the files for it such as speaknow.quakeone.com runs "Clan ArenaX". You can download the files here: .:: Clan Arena -X- ::.

All the downloads have a readme.txt for every mod and you can download various maps here: Index of /maps/qw/maps/

Most of the downloads are ez installers and will put the files where they need to be. The files in the map pack should go into your id1/maps folder.

Hey thanks (+rep)... I played online just a while ago... working well.
I am using the DarkPlaces engine... runs nice.

I still cant seem to find that single player patch/mod for the Morning Star or Hook... I know it's called "grapv111.zip " but cant find the file anywhere online.
Any clues?
:/

You might want to look here: Quake 1 help! - grappling hook mod - anyone have it?

Not sure what server version would do for you, but theres a client one that has paralysis removed, but i have no idea how compatibility would work. Anyways, thats all I could find on it.
