about ezquake...

Wha? I'm talking about your version of ezquake. What do you mean you can't update?

[lentmain]

i'm using quake 1.06...
i can't update it to 1.08...

[lentmain]

neither.... it was upon clicking the exe for the game....

[PrimalLove]

is it the ~..? where do you enter these..?

Where do you enter what? If you are referring maybe to the stuff about the joystick the first part:

ezquake_gl.exe -joystick -dinput +joystick 1

You use those in your commandline or in a batch file to load the game. These need to be set because they are turned off by default with this engine to keep memory usage to a minimum.


Next you'll need to make yourself an autoexec.cfg file or similar and place this in it.. Either this one:

joyadvanced 1
joy_axisside 0
joy_axisforward 1
joy_axisup 2
joy_axisyaw 3
joy_axispitch 5
joy_sensitivityside 1
joy_sensitivityforward -1
joy_sensitivityup -1
joy_sensitivityyaw -1
joy_sensitivitypitch -1
joy_deadzoneside 0
joy_deadzoneforward 0
joy_deadzoneup 0
joy_deadzoneyaw 0
joy_deadzonepitch 0
joyadvaxisx 3
joyadvaxisy 1
joyadvancedupdate
+mlook

Or I believe this below one is specifically compatible with ezquake:

joyadvanced 1
joyadvaxisy 1
joyadvaxisx 3
joyadvaxisz 2
joyadvaxisr 4
joyadvancedupdate
+mlook

You can type those into your console if you wish. Just press the tilde key ~ to bring down the console to type them in. However, the first part you'll have to do at the commandline or in a batch file.


As for the security module fail that is a normal thing. They haven't used those since 1.8 and that was only for league play. It is normal to see this error. It runs fine without having a security module. Make sense? They just never removed the check. I am sure it's possible some leagues still use security modules to ensure cheat free game play but I have no idea where you would get one but you certainly don't need it.

Which version are you using? Any time you need help with something it is a good idea to post info about what version you are running, a condump if possible, etc.

the start up said... failed for security modual...

Are you trying to connect to a "QuakeWorld" Server or a "NetQuake" Server?

[Mindf!3ldzX]

look for OpenGL32.dll inside your Quake folder! rename it OpenGL32.old, This could be the problem.

Now maybe you can give me more information on the modules and what you want to accomplish?

[PrimalLove]

To be more specific you'll need to do this in the commandline assuming also you need dinput:

 -joystick -dinput +joystick 1

Then you'll need to define your axis in the game. Use this in an autoexec.cfg or similar:

joyadvanced 1
joy_axisside 0
joy_axisforward 1
joy_axisup 2
joy_axisyaw 3
joy_axispitch 5
joy_sensitivityside 1
joy_sensitivityforward -1
joy_sensitivityup -1
joy_sensitivityyaw -1
joy_sensitivitypitch -1
joy_deadzoneside 0
joy_deadzoneforward 0
joy_deadzoneup 0
joy_deadzoneyaw 0
joy_deadzonepitch 0
joyadvaxisx 3
joyadvaxisy 1
joyadvancedupdate
+mlook

If some of those don't work these should work in ezquake specifically

joyadvanced 1
joyadvaxisy 1
joyadvaxisx 3
joyadvaxisz 2
joyadvaxisr 4
joyadvancedupdate
+mlook

That will get you going.

For a second I thought maybe he was referring to the proquake security.dll module, but I quickly abandoned that thought.lol

[PrimalLove]

Maybe you could explain more what you are trying to accomplish?

As for joystick just use -joystick in your commandline. When you say you've tried a lot of stuff what does that mean? Examples?

[Spike]

1. you don't.
2. ezquake3? you can't.
