Hacking [RELEASE] vitaQuake - Quake porting for PSVITA

[Arballisk]

This may be a dumb question, but which folders from the GOG installation do I use? And mods just go in their own self-named folder?

And to play the mission packs (hipnotic and rouge) do I just select them from the mod selector?

And map mods with multiple paks; do I just copy all of those over asis or combine them, some also have the progs.dat outside the pak.

Any idea when we will see hardware rendering on Quake? Some of the levels have significant frame drops.

Hi. Can anyone assist. I am running TYRQuake via retroarch. All is working very nicely.

BUT...I cannot for the life of me get the music to work. I have tried all suggestions I have found on the web. I have tried both ogg files and mp3 files placed in a cdtracks folder in the quake directory and the ID1 directory. Nothing seems to make that music play.

It mentioned AudioCD so maybe you need wave files?

Why do you not use vitaQuake instead?

OK I have worked it out. Place your track002.ogg etc in a folder called cdtracks in the actual mod folder. e.g id folder.
Plays ok here.

Doesn't seem to work with tyrquake.

Vita quake plays really well. Really enjoying it.
I have just tried Quake 1 Arena but it just bombs out.
Anybody had this working?

Is there a way to play maps on Vitaquake.

e.g bsp files

Yes, open console, type "map [name of map] without the bsp file type. Most load fine in multiplayer. And quake 1 arena, from what I remember is problematic in quake 1 ports. I think it has something to do with the models.

I have found another way. make a file called autoexec.cfg and write on the first line "map mapname" and that will now boot the game using the map util.

Have you managed to get nehahra or epsilion working?

How can I install this for ARK 3.63 ? Appreciate any help.

You can't. ARK can only run PSP content.

You can't. ARK can only run PSP content.

I see, well, that sucks :/ I would love to play this port.

Do you have any idea if ark can run plugins like cwcheat?

-edit-

I managed to get CWCHEAT to work but I couldnt find a way to add cheat code database to the plugin.. seems thats only possible in PSP, am I wrong?

huh, it should be possible to add the database, I don't remember the correct path, but it should work?

Originally, I was using Quake 1.9, I think. Maybe 2.0. I know I did have the music installed and working, although the volume was very low. Anyway, the version I was using came packed with the mod selector. I had both mission packs, and a fan made mission pack, each installed to separate folders. When I upgraded to (I think version 2.1, or 2.2, whichever replaced the mod selector with the live area selector), starting the game no longer ran the mission pack I was playing before, and when I tried to select one it just makes the launch sound, and the screen goes blank for a second, before returning to the live area. What has changed, and how can I fix this?
Currently, my directories are as such:
Quake - ux0:/data/quake/id1
mission pack 1 - ux0:/data/quake/mp1
mission pack 2 - ux0:/data/quake/mp2
fan mission pack - ux0:/data/quake/id2
aftershock (never worked) ux0:/data/quake/aftershock

If I can at least get my official mission packs working again, that would be awesome. Do I need to chance the directory?

its old thread but I cant seem to get mods working, quake 1 port does support mods just not sure how to do it

 

[skarmachild]

So I've got 2 Vita's each with Quake on.. I'm trying to get multiplayer working, online or local, to no success. Anyone succesully done this? Couldn't even get it working on the PSP port, the multiplayer, but I'm so desperate to play through on co op !

The current version has limited support for certain mods.
Version 2.5 has better mod support.

As for Quake 1 arena, you have a better chance using the psp version on adrenaline.
I've updated the railgun if you're interested.
Simply replace the progs folder with the one in the archive.

2.5 has the same issues with loading many of the mods Arcane Dimensions ( technically you can force load maps) Doom mod/ zer/shark even the less demanding ones wont work. The only mods that work are old custom maps (map design in quake has evolved way past those). Sadly most mods use Quakespasm/Darkspaces moded engines(on the nintendo switch you can load pretty much any mod since its quakespasm).

I dont think its a hardware limitation its just a matter of someone who may be interested in porting Quakespasm to the vita.
