Quake II 64 TC?

[MH]

The PSX version had much more in common with the original, but it was fairly badly butchered. Entire units were left out, maps were chopped up with large doglegs between sections, and it suffered from interminable loading screens within those doglegs. That they managed to get even that much out of the hardware was something of a minor miracle, but a minor miracle doesn't make it good. The N64 version was a completely different set of maps, although funnily enough I recall that both of them had the same start map, after which PSX led into base1 but N64 went it's own merry way.

There's no real reason to dig up the PSX version aside from that start map; the PC original does everything else but in a vastly superior manner. The engine would be completely different anyway; IIRC it was the team who worked on the PSX port of Exhumed/Powerslave who adapted their engine for it, so it seems reasonable to deduce that there would be fairly fundamental differences in even the file formats. No real idea about the N64 version - I played a bit of it back in the day but don't recall getting much enjoyment from it, and soon enough abandoned it.

From what I remember, the PSX version seemed like it looked and played much better than the N64 version

If it strokes your fancy, I have a physical copy of Quake II for PSX sitting right in front of me.I haven't bothered popping it into a drive yet,cuz you seem determined for the 64 version. Sorry bro,I never owned a N64. Should I dig for content at your request? I'm betting its possible.... but I won't mess with it unless you want me to bother with it....


gg

ps : psx version and n64 verions differ, both from each other & PC. Give up is my advice, or take the PSX shit I'm offering and run with it.

Rush to judgement by far. Just to make life easy, IMO would be to get the game for PC. I don't see level's on the q2 version of N64 any different from the level's on a PC.

For the benefit of LaughingMan because he wasn't here when it happened.

A while back there was this guy who wanted something similar but for the N64 port of Quake 1. Difference was that he wanted everyone else to do the work for him and put together a package so that he could play it. His own contribution was quite minimal, but yet he painted it as if he was doing everything in the project.

I don't condone tarring you with the same brush, but I do understand where people are coming from with this. Once bitten, etc, and people are naturally wary because of the (superficial) similarities. Of course you weren't to know that so hence the confusion and some clashing over it, but hopefully that can stop now.

And apologies that you got exposed to the nasty side of the community so early.

..

The rush to judgment aspect of this thread is bad, I agree.

Calling us names makes you a so much better person, really.

Yes, yes I have mindz. Thank you for asking SOMEWHAT politely, and thank you for the new link. At no time did I demand somebody do this for me. I brought it up and asked if anybody wanted to help. Somehow that made me whiny and earned me verbal abuse from unhelpful idiots? Sorry to wreck your whole day by asking a simple question or two.

[grave_digga]

Mindz, that would mean that he had to do something by himself other then saying "give me, now".

Back on topic : did you even download what I told you to / attempt poking around / make any progress.

Ghey, n64 sux get a pc play q2 done. tHAT ORIGIINAL PROJECT U TALKED ABOUT WAS A WHINEY KID ASKENG EVERYONE to make his (wet) dream cum true withj no effort other than drool on his pillow., i think it was drool. even so why make a mod of a mod of a poorly made mod, on a demoted platform just to say hey looky i made this!

Hmm....
I have no doubt that something in that "paragraph" made sense to somebody, somewhere, but Im not a 13 year old l33t speaking imbecile, so that leaves me out. I did get the part about playing the game on PC, which is my entire point. I want to play the exclusive nintendo levels on the pc version. I guess that was too complex an idea for you to comprehend.

That might work. I agree, this isnt the place to talk about ROM hacking, but thats really not why Im here. Im here trying to stir up interest and support for a TC. Heh. Doom has people porting console versions that have literally no differences other than a couple swapped textures and worse graphics. Theres a mod to port the 32X version to PC for cryin out loud. I just think the Quake series deserves the same level of dedication...

Speaking of, didnt the Saturn version of Quake 1 have some new levels?

HEH. Emulated, GG. Full archive of N64 goodness.
