Mission Pack 1 and 2 Startup Issues

[Baker]

If you want to use Mission Pack 1 or Mission Pack 2 with a modded engine, the basic command line is as follows:

"c:\quake\glquake.exe" -hipnotic // Mission Pack 1 - Scourge of Armagon
"c:\quake\glquake.exe" -rogue // Mission Pack 2 - Dissolution of Eternity

Examples for some other engines:

"c:\quake\glpro.exe" -hipnotic // ProQuake
"c:\quake\joequake-gl.exe" -hipnotic // JoeQuake
"c:\quake\fitzquake.exe" -hipnotic // FitzQuake
"c:\quake\glqrack.exe" -hipnotic // Qrack
"c:\quake\darkplaces.exe" -hipnotic // DarkPlaces

Mission Pack 1 and Mission Pack 2 are commercial add-ons for Quake; they are not sold new anywhere (technically abandonware -- I think), but can be purchased used on Ebay.

What's the purpose of having the game folder listed twice? Shouldn't it be?...

-game hipnotic OR -game rogue

Also, I've noticed that the expansion packs don't work with QW-only engines like FuhQuake or EZQuake. At one time, there were apparently some files on the FuhQuake forum that made the expansions work properly, but I can't seem to find the files now.

No, that doesn't work properly. Although it appears to work at first -- the startup demos play -- you get missing model messages as soon as you start a single player game.

That applies to the vast majority of mods (it isn't really a mod if it doesn't have custom QuakeC), but it would be nice if someone found the Mission Pack 1/2 stuff for Quakeworld engines. I played on a Quakeworld server once that ran Mission Pack 1.

Got another link? The zipfile from Shub-hub seems to be bad.

[Baker]

Brimstone's right. It doesn't look like the zip is valid.

Oops. I re-uploaded it now.

i still don't get on where you need to type the command and why do we need to pin point the program to play the expension

[Baker]

Click start and then click Run and type whichever command line into the box in Windows.

Many ppl want to use a more up-to-date engine to play the Mission Packs than whatever the CD supported.

It is for use with Quakeworld clients; you have to have Mission Pack 1 and Mission Pack 2 (available for sale only on eBay anymore) and use eZQuake or FuhQuake for it to be of any use.

Regular Quake clients (non-Quakeworld) like Qrack, DarkPlaces, etc. don't need this file to use the Mission Packs.

you can get the mission packs from the idsoftware site i think but i could be wrong
