Homebrew ioQuake3-Wii

I did erase the Quake 3 cfg actually but I'll try it again just to be sure

Ah, I realised now. Did you try hosting a server, or did you try to connect to one?

Hosting a server

Hosting a server

Oh yeah, that's normal. That client can't do that. I will remove the button in the next release. It's a client that is made with the sole purpose to play on Dreamcast servers.

Noted! On another topic I think the mod loader version really should supplant the regular "main" ioquake 3 version, especially since you can already just launch regular quake 3 from the mod loader version anyways. Unless there's more differences that necessitate it being a seperate branch. You know just to consolidate things a bit more you know?

Also guys if you use the commands "\r_stencilbits 8" and "\cg_shadows 3" you can enable stencil shadows which actually look quite nice in game and have zero performance downsides! Especially useful if you have decals disabled as I do.

For the next update, I'd invite all the users who had the message power pc: not enough memory error when loading maps to reach me via DM. I'll give you a debug build that I want you to boot and bring me back the debug log.

When sending the log back, you must specificy:
Wii model (PAL or NTSC)
Boot mode (HBC directly through Priiloader, Wii Home Menu)
If the files were in USB or SD card
If you had a HDD plugged in.

Also be sure to run the latest build with a clean q3config file.

New Update

Bugfixes​

• Bindings will now persist across controller/power cycles
• Fixed an issue where unplugging the nunchuck while doing a movement would lock the player's movement to that direction
• Improved memory management (USB/HDD users shouldn't run out of memory anymore)
• Slightly improved CLASSIC menu UI (still TODO, though)
• Other minor bugfixes

Certain large levels like Q3DM11 won't load anymore, says it's out of memory

Did you delete the Q3config file? It touched some stuff there

Good catch, I forgot to do that! Seems to be okay now.

EDIT: It does seem to still run out of memory quicker though - I triggered OoM by loading large levels with a lot of bots where previously it would load fine on the last build. Also custom levels and mods are a lot more hit and miss for loading without running into a OoM error.

EDIT 2: The first level in OpenArena runs out of memory in this new build where it always loads on the last build.
