    With the release of MorphOS 3.4, I really want to try out Quake 1, 2 and 3. But there is no guide of how to install what files from where, and all my own attempts have failed. Can someone please make a short "Beginners guide of installing Quake for noobs", please.

    And to be clear: something more useful than "insert the cd and ...". More like: "put that specifik drawer there ..."

    ---

    I was also thinking of using this thread for other difficult to install games. I can write a guide for Homeworld if anyone is interested.

    Quake1:

    Download Quake from MZ Download Section

    Extract (it will create a Quake folder)

    Create "id1" folder inside Quake folder.

    From Quake CD ---> data ---> ID1 copy PAK0.pak and PAK1.pak files to "id1"

    Now in your Quake folder you'll find GLQuakeMos starter. Run it to set your screen res. and color depth preferences and start the game.

    It will run fullscreen, but in the Readme you'll find instruction to run it windowed along with other options.

    Enjoy

    Thanks! That did the trick. I don't know why it didn't work before, but my previous installation had a lot more files and it refused to start. This works without a hitch.

    Is it the same procedure for Quake II and III?
