is it this file i need to download?
"RQuake 1.1 Maximum w/Devkit EZ Installer"

That's probably the best place to start, although numerous improvements have been made since that version was released. I am unsure if an installer for version 1.2 has been made yet.

RQuake 1.1 by itself plays pretty kick ass. There are improvements in 1.2, of course, but 1.1 ain't bad at all.

i have downloaded this just now but cant get it to work. the game works but with no runes or free hook. there is 4 extra icons in my quake file, glpro, glqrack, glqrack-r and glquake. none of them work though, only the desktop icon which was installed. i cant run from command line either as it says the file isnt accessible. iam obviously just daft. please have pity on the pc loser. lol

Start -> Program Files -> RQuake Team Cooperative -> Play Single Player -> Click the appropriate selection.

Note: It is not possible for it to install incorrectly.

sorted. i am now embarrassed and about to become more so i think.
how do i turn free hook on?

I'm glad you figured out it out.

The hook can be turned on, I think by typing something in the console (not something easy or obvious, as far as I recall ... some temp1 or scratch1 type of setting) but I'd have to research it and I'm not at home so I don't have access to anything right now (unless RocketGuy or Lardarse answers this first)

Initially RQuake had the grappling hook on by default, but during testing it sort of ruined a lot of the maps.

would be awesome to have it on. i need to practice alot as i only really play in shmack, but i work away from home and only have a really poor dial up there. it is impossible to play as my ping is bad enough at weekends on broadband. i notice the monsters are alot harder aswell. much better!!!
the impulse commands for runes and god etc dont seem to work either.
do these also need to be turned on?
just so i can mess about and explore the extent of runes without experts blowing the fuck out of me every 20 seconds. lol

There are some better options for (aiming) practice.

RQuake has only 12 runes so you don't really need a cheat command.

And, unlike normal single player, you respawn if you die to continue where you left off so the "god" command isn't very important.



Ah! Yeah, that can be a problem.

This thread will partially help:

You can also connect to quake.shmack.net:26002 and type "vote-runes" and "vote-hook" in the console to experiment.

I only keep half-damage, Armor, Armor-Piercing, Vengeance, strength, vampire, berserk, Zen Monk (no splash damage = only harmed by direct hit rockets/grenades), Jack of all Runes, and the maximum health and regen runes myself. I'll use the use others and drop them.

that is good. those bots are better than me so it will be handy for praticing with no internet connectivity.
would still like to know how to turn on hook in rquake though if anyone out there knows. i am pretty poo with my hook and this tends to get me all fucked up as i cant catch or run away from people. it leads to me getting fragged alot when i should have been outta there seconds ago.
i will use the bot practice alot though i think. thanks baker.
all feel free to contribute if you have seen me in shmack, you must have seen some terrible stuff i do wrong heh.

To turn on the hook in RQuake go to your RQuake folder, open autoexec.cfg with a text editor and find the line that says:
temp1 1138828
Change that to:
temp1 1400942

You should now be able to use the hook.

if this is the right place, i have changed it using notepad and saving it there, but it hasn't worked.
do i need to use a specific program to edit this file or am i not doing something right

You probably did something wrong but I can't know what from here.
Let's try something else, download this file and put it in your rquake folder:
http://rocketguy.planetquake.gamespy.co ... toexec.cfg
(right click->save target as..)

that file is saved in rquake now but still no hook.
it just says "no hook" when i click mouse2.

RocketGuy, would typing temp1 1400942 it in the console work?

Probably.. but putting it in the autoexec worked for me..
