Pc quake3 maps on DC ...

[R4mb0]

Somebody already tried some time to put pc quake3maps in the dreamcast q3 ?
It is possible ?
I played a lot of cool q3 maps in my pc made by q3 fans!

I don't think you can do it on a GD-ROM, but if you get those damn backups (boooo!) then probably!

I'm having trouble with it.
I ported a few quake1 maps to quake1dc, but cant get quake3 mods/maps to work.

The consoles has like 1/2 the commands of the pc version.
It's rather frustrating

There are enough commands for the dc version.

;raster 1
;map dc_map12

Should work for changing maps.
Other things can't explained here, because it would be against the rules, sorry.

Why would modding be against the rules?? :confused:

yes moding commercial games are against the rules, in this forum

Err.. -What? o.O

Did not see it in the forum rules, please link :)

What about non-commercial games, such as the Quake1 port?


Back on topic, there's a very interesting tree I found at wikipedia:

Just play the PC version, it's probably better anyways.

[Darksaviour69]

when i said commercial games, i mean dreamcast commercial games, not ported games, so yes you can mod quake 1

[oosername05]

I just had to say this... Quake III Arena in my opinion is the most fun game of all of the FPS games for Dreamcast. :)

[R4mb0]

lo
I want know if it possible add mods too ?
And if is possible play the maps online ?
Thx


Quake 3 insn´t open source ?
The maps and mods are freeware ...

[lo]

Take a look at other dcemulation forum, maybe you find the answer there. ->Yes.

Quake III for dreamcast is no open source, sad but true.


Quake III is a great game and one of the last for dreamcast that is still online and will be online forever and playable via lan if you own a BbA.

Mods can (only?) be done via server.

[Elven6]

The source is already released for it, why not do something with that?

[ßüboni¢ $oñic]

why are they saying you cant mod a comercial game if the source was released..? and how many ppl still play the PC version and what can be done to force the PC wservers to accept DC players?

[Darksaviour69]

the source was not released for the Dreamcast version

[ßüboni¢ $oñic]

well.. at lowest u should be alowed to try to mode ur PCQ3 to better be compatiable w/out editing trhe DCQ3 but still examining it.

Go ahead and read through the EULA for Quake3 game modifications are part of the license, read the EULA for the source code too. You are allowed to modify your own property privately. It even describes the process of burning a backup game disc of the original. :eek:

I need help finishing the modification process because it is almost complete :eek:

You need a broadband adapter to get the most out of this :eek:

The source code was already released for the game remember? It works pretty good for me :eek:

Face it! the real problem you had in modifying the game came down to BSP, or you would have done it already, you need a real game hacker to develop a special technique! :eek:

Altogether you still dont know what your getting into....it is quite complicated and no one thinks it is possible... :rofl:

There is absolutely NO homebrew project like this that takes the DC to the EDGE of performance backed by one of the greatest programmers in history :cool:

Take a chance on this and allow me to post my findings or at least link to another site- nothing has happened in the DC scene for a while and I think all of you that have been patiently waiting deserve something to see! :thumbup:

[infurnull]

I'd like to get as many people involved as I can- I think that is the next step along with getting a TV capture card.
