- Short: Updated (v0.96) code for QuakePlayer
- Author: info@clickboom.com (clickBOOM)
- Type: game/demo
- Action: NoStart
-
- Download this archive if you have a previous version of Quake Player, and decompress it to
- QuakePlayer directory.
-
- If you don't have v0.95, you must download the full install (QuakePlayer096.lha) - 6Mb.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- This is a non-playable demo of Quake Amiga.
- It is much more than a slideshow, that is why it's called the Quake Player.
- It allows you to view Quake demos, both the ones found in the game, as well as a vast number of demos from Internet.
-
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Quake Player does not just display presaved pictures,
- IT ACTUALLY RENDERS THE WHOLE GAMEPLAY IN REAL TIME AS IF YOU WERE PLAYING IT !!!
- Thus, speed you see is the actual speed you will be getting in the game.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Note 1: Game speed over Internet in full version will depend on the quality of your connection!
- Note 2: Gameplay will seem slightly smoother when watching demos than when actually controlling the game because there is no "eye-hand"
- interaction involved.
- Note 3: On CPU less than 060 reduce the screen size to 50% (from Options or Graphics menu)
- Note 4: If you don't have a sound board, use custom sound routines, they are much faster then AHI.
- Note 5: If you have anything less than 50Mhz 030, don't bother downloading, your computer is way too slow for Quake.
-
-
- OPTIONS
-
- All the options from the game are available in Quake Player. Press ESC, and use regular PC-like options, or Amiga-style menus. First time you
- press ESC it will take some time to load and display the menu. Next time it loads it from buffer and displays faster.
-
- Feel free to set resolution, sound and other options.
-
- Obviously, starting the game, choosing maps, etc. will not give any results.
-
-
-
- LIMITATIONS
-
- - Quake player can only play demos from Maps 3,4 and 6 of the first Quake episode. (Therefore, qdq100 or similar will not work).
- Why 3 levels only? So you would have more fun when you get the full version!
- - Some demos like "Artifact" are marked as one-map only, but actually contain scenes from other levels. Those can only be played with a full
- version of Quake Amiga.
- - Quake player will only play demos if it can find .pak file for them.
