Quake2 multiplayer version download [47 MB] (Alternative Mirror 2)


duco wrote:
I've created original q2 without any modifications. It contains all multiplayer tdm and duel maps played in euroq2l / edl and plq2. I thought this would be a nice alternative for people that want the 'original q2 feeling'. Ofcourse you can modify by adding your own pak-files.

The .rar - file is 47 mb large and can be downloaded here:
Mirror 1
Mirror 2

Included:
-r1q2
-loc files
-8 servers in adress book

Some modifications:

pak1.pak contains the follow maps:
-dm1-dm8
-rdm1/2/7
-duel1/5/8
-match1
-next1
-ztn1/2/3
-ptrip
-fury
-aeroq2
-koldduel1
+All original textures belonging to above maps that normally need to be downloaded manually

--------------------------------------
Advanced config included (movement can be modified in [player-dm.txt]
Controls: forward = e; left=s; right=f
weapon buttons are around this control buttons

Advanced multipe weapon (drop) buttons:
Mouse 3 (=click mousewheel) functions as a modifier; Example:
R = Switch to rocketlauncher
mouse3+R = drop RL + rocks
Mouse3+space+r = drop RL (without ammo)
Mouse3+2x space+r = drop rockets
Mouse3+2x space + r,r,r,r = drop 20 rockets
Mouse3+ALT + R + need RL
Mouse3+ALt(2x)+R = need rockets

This way you can drop + keep moving/aiming at the same time.

Advanced teammessages (can be edited in [team-dm.txt]:
1 = Affirmative ; mouse3+1 = negative
C = MH free ; mouse3+c = MH 20 + timer

Tested under:
-Win7 64 bits, core 2 Duo processor and Ati 4800 series videocard
-Pak files modified using pakscape 0.11

Enjoy and let me know if you like it!

How to: Download and set up Quake 2 + R1Q2 Anticheat

  1. Install Quake 2 demo version. [37.3 MB]
    Download mirror 1 | Download mirror 2 | Download mirror 3

  2. Install Quake 2 3.20 update. This patch includes ctf files. [18.4 MB]
    Download mirror 1 | Download mirror 2

  3. Get pak0.pak and save it to quake2/baseq2/. [175.5 MB]
    Download *not available and the game works without this too*

  4. Get R1Q2 files and save them to your quake2 directory (quake2/).
    Download

  5. Run R1Q2Updater.exe, it will update your R1Q2 files.

  6. Get location files and save them to quake2/baseq2/locs/.
    Download

  7. Download the most common maps and unrar them to quake2/baseq2/
    q2rdm map pack
    q2next maps
    q2duel map pack
    match1
    ztn maps

  8. Run r1q2.exe to start Quake 2.

At this point you should have Quake 2 working and be able to join anticheat servers. Next step in this guide is setting up your config. You can either use my recommended settings (alternative a) or make your own (alternative b).
  1. Create autoexec.cfg to quake2/baseq2/ directory and copypaste following lines into it:
    set m_fixaccel 0
    set m_directinput 2
    set cl_async 0
    set cl_maxfps 120
    set cl_smoothsteps 0
    set vid_ref r1gl
    set sv_allow_map 1

  2. And/or alternatively do your R1Q2 config with R1CH's Q2 Config-O-Matic.

Note 1: R1Q2 Anticheat works currently only with 32bit win2k and xp.
Note 2: Have Quake2 CD? Install or copy the game from it and skip part 1 and 3.
Note 3: Low FPS with your Core2Duo system in Q2? Read the FAQ at http://antiche.at/en.

Very nice!

One thing though, I think cl_maxfps is set on 30 by default so if they use your recommended cfg they'll have to set it back to 90.

Nice guide, a few comments though.

If using the R1Q2 installer (r1q2-websetup.exe), installing anticheat.dll manually is not necessary since it is an option in the installer.

For R1Q2, locs are loaded in this order:

moddir/locs/mapname.loc
baseq2/locs/mapname.loc
moddir/maps/mapname.loc
baseq2/maps/mapname.loc

So putting locs in q2/locs/ won't work.

I actually think async is the best thing since sex, it lets you have the physics you want by setting cl_maxfps, but also have as much fps as possible by setting r_maxfps (defaults to 1000 anyway)
