  • Problem getting expansions to work in DarkPlaces

    Hello,

    As the title suggests, i have a problem with getting the expansions to work in the darkplaces mod. I was able to get the original quake working, but the expansions don't want to work at all. I've tried going through the mods menu and selecting the mods from there, but every time i do that it boots me out of the game and closes it and does nothing else, any suggestions would be welcome.

    just run the game excecutable using -rogue or -hipnotic parameters

    dont use the in-game mods menu, its broken afaik
    .
    are you curious about what all there is out there in terms of HD content for quake?

    everything that is out there for quake and both mission-packs, compiled into one massive thread

        ive made BATs which will run the game with the parameters for you:

        just drop them in the same folder where your darkplaces.exe executable is and run them to start mission-packs
        .

              you can just rename the darkplaces.exe to hipnotic.exe or rogue.exe , so you do not need uses bat files! (yeah seems strange but works great, also this feature worjs with quoth, nehahra, and prydon)

                  Hi Nahuel,
                  is this a newer feature?

                  I think SMC shoud have this too....

                    Hello webangel,

                    Nahuel spoke about it here.
                    He can modify DPs source, compile it and send it to you if you want.

                    The feature: renaming of the DP executable for famous mods is possible since quite some time already, but smc is surely not a mod which deserves this as well. LordHavoc (and many many others) doesnt even know it.
                    Nahuel knows which line to add/modify in DPs source for it, which should be enough

                    By the way, many users have the smc in their id1 folder, so this feature is not necessary for them.

                    Viele Grüße,
                    Seven


                    PS: Look what I found for you

                        Sorry for double post.

                        @Nahuel
                        please send me a copy from your modified DP with SMC direct start.
