Marking the gaming industry's departure from software/8bits color system to hardware/24bits color system that occured around 1997.įor all those reasons, I highly recommend anyone that appreciate programming to dive into it.Īs usual I took numerous notes, cleaned them up and publish them as it may Popular (in term of licensing) 3D engine of all time. In a lot of regards Quake II is a shining piece of software history since it is the most The way modularity was achieved even though the C programming language doesn't feature polymorphism was especially Quake World and QuakeGL into one beautiful code architecture. It was a wonderful learning experience since one major improvement in idTech3 engine was to unify Quake 1, I spent about a month in my spare time reading the source code of Quake II. It's how I play the original team fortress rather than team fortress classic.September 16th, 2011 Quake 2 Source Code Review 1/4 It's a bit to do compaired to just finding the commands and imputting them into the console, but in the end, ezquake is much easier to use and brings added functions. For 1920x1080 you will likely want to turn on wide aspec as well. It will ask you something about the directory which I can't remember what it exactly said, but just let it change it.Īnd voila, your quake now has a much easier to use click based interface with options to improve the graphics even further than the original quake.Īlso the resolution option is under system, not graphics.
From there on, you will have to fireup quake from the ezquake in your games library, not from the quake. Get whichever version your os supports then install it.It will ask for the location of your quake installation, which is typically underĬ:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Quakeįrom there, open up steam, then go to +add a game.Ezquake should be one of the options avaible to you. Proquake on the otherhand is used mainly as a multiplayer client, something ezquake does as well. I personally use ezquake as nquake is based off of ez, and darkplaces lacks a multiplayer browser. There is commands you can use in the commandline to change the resolution but that may be a pain to use so I suggest getting a quake client such as ezquake,nquake,dark places, or Proquake.
