Hi JDSTONER
I can't help you with the Wii specific issue, but generally to use a mod you would download the required files and place them in a folder within your quake directory. for example c:\quake\MyModName then create a custom batch file that will start quake and tell it which mod files to use.

So for example if you wanted to play Painkeep using the QRack quake engine you might put something like this in your batch file...

glqrack.exe -game painkeep  .... [I](plus whatever other startup parameters you normally use, -mem, -width, etc)[/I]

It probably sounds more complicated than it is but generally most players will set up a new mod in under a minute [it would take Rook probably a tenth of that.. including coding the mod ].

I've not tried this myself but some of the more modern engines will allow you to specify a game directory in which case you can start Quake normally and enter the relevant command.

I'm guessing that somewhere in your Wii port there will be some option to pass it the parameters such as -game MyModName .

Hope this helps

Which port you use? There are a couple for the wii...

I'm able to run from original maps to commercial mods and also crmod. Still have to try network...
