'previous weapon' depends on the mod. it doesn't exist in version 1.01 of quake (and therefore quite a lot of mods based on that version of the qc). I think it was added with 1.06, but not everyone actually updated to it (including those mods which never added support for it).
If you look inside your ID1 folder, you will see a file called progs.dat. This is the game logic (QuakeC) and is referenced by the game engine (the executable, i.e. QuakeSpasm, FitzQuake, DarkPlaces, FTE, so on and so forth).
Earlier versions of Quake had progs version 1.01, and did not include a previous weapon command. Later version 1.06 did.
Pretty much all modern engines will show the command in the menu, but this means nothing if the game code doesn't accomodate. Previous weapon command is actually an impulse command (impulse 11 I think? Might be 12). Impulse commands are handled in QC (progs.dat).
What engine are you using? Where did you download your ID1 folder? Is it from a CD from 1996 or from steam?
