The shareware version of Quake 1 can be found on the Quake DS site (i download it from there). And when I speak of install it, it's how to find the .pak (which is of course not the same as doom like jalaneme said).

It does look deceptively better in the first picture on that site.
exactly. I guess ill just wait for the actual release instead of the prerelease to start complaining.

Im getting horrible texture glitches and my weapon models arnt even showing up cept for the axe... anyone else getting this too?


well if you've read what it says on his site you would understand why.

"This is mad its running better on the DS than it did on the PC I had when quake was released."

Well from how others were talking it seemed like it was working fine.

sorry I was refering to the framerate not the glitches.

Its smooth which is a great start

just needs the glitches stomping on

It is running fine which is amazing in itself. For an early release this is a great accomplishment. The graphics issues are detailed on the website. We should be thankful that this was even released. Often developers hold off on early releases so they don't have to deal with complaints about an unfinished project. Be patient and this will turn into something great.

Finally a DS shooter where we can make our own levels! It is able to load custom levels right? I remember bringing down the screen with ~ back in the day to change to custom levels.

ok i'm going to patch the file now then.

edit: ok, i still have the error message, i patched the .nds file and the game still won't boot, does it have something to do with the location of the files? or is it because of gfx.wad file is missing, where can i get this gfx file? it should be part of the shareware file so i don't know why it wasn't included, i can't see the gfx file in the installation folder.

it doesn't bloody work i give up!

Make sure the patched program file is in the root directory and the .pak files and the configuration file are in the /id1 folder. It works fine on the R4DS after this is done. I've tried the shareware version and the full version. Both work.

If you have more question go to the programs homepage: http://quake.drunkencoders.com/

Jala.. You have to install quake on your PC and after you'll find the .pak file on your computer. It's only after that you coould copy the .pak and use Quake DS
