Problem with DirectQ 1.8.8 & Mission Packs

[raithe]

Whenever I try to load the Rogue or Hipnotic packs in DirectQ 1.8.8 using in game menu (command line is fine) the game loads the packs and switches directory but the demos don't start, then if you try to start a new game the console spits "host error sv_modelindex <foo> (it varies) not precached (sv.model_precache[1])" and won't load. This problem isn't present in 1.8.666 and below.

The demos not starting is intentional, ID Quake is actually supposed to stop the demo loop after first time. So that one is "by design" (and I can guarantee you that for every one person who wants it different there will be another who wants it the same, so this is a case of "when in doubt do what ID Quake did" )

I'll check out the other one.

oh, ok. I only mentioned the demos because when i load up stock ID1 the demo loop starts up. I figured it might help to peg down when the problem was occurring. Personally I find the demo loops annoying most of the time.
