Hey guys! Finny needs HELP....

[.Fin.]

...well, I'm setting up a new comp.

I have downloaded my original '96 QUAKE CD-ROM. Sweet.

I have also tried to download the maps of the servers on this site.

So far, however, when I try to connect, the screen says "connection accepted," but then stops. Just the orange background & a cursor--no game. Finny sad. :-<

Can anyone advise?


Also, my mouse speed/sensitivity is WAY too slow. Need to make it super-frosty--what's the command?

Thanks guys--with your help, I'll see you all online soon!

Yes, listen to FOQ.

You need ProQuake. Toyo uses it, Cherry uses it, I use it, everyone you know is using it. It's just GLQuake but better and you won't have that "connection accepted" problem anymore.

Any of the following work:

1. ProQuake Launcher http://www.quakeone.com/proquake

2. ProQuake EZ Installer

http://www.quakeone.com/index.php?in...file&file_id=1

Or you can manually install it off the ProQuake site:

Thanks you two.

So far, so good. I've got ProQuake downloaded--you're right, looks great.

Now when I try to connect through ProQuake it says "you must have the registered version" to do that.

What the? How do I register an 11 year-old CD-ROM?

install a fresh version from the cd, then move the pak0.pak and pak1.pak files from that id1 folder to the id1 folder of proquake, replacing any that might be there
