If you have successfully installed QVM’s on the v1.32 point-release, please contact me here or leave a comment on this post. Therefore in this post I’m going to explain the installation of mod DLL’s only, not QVM’s. Since Quake III will behave the same way regardless of whether a mod is installed via DLL(s) or QVM(s) (although DLL’s are a bit faster), I didn’t see the point in continuing to beat my head against the wall over those QVM files. □ And, in the end, I was only able to install it via the compiled DLL’s – the QVM files, even though they all compiled successfully, just refused to load. It was a very simple mod where I changed the rocket launcher’s trigger rate and rocket speed – so it could rapid fire like the plasma gun. I had massive problems with the first mod I tried. OK, let me start off by saying if you are having trouble installing a Quake III mod, you’re not alone. (I will be writing a post about how to create a mod in the near future, but that’ll be after I’m done with the Quake III. This post can be applied to solve both problems, but I’m not going to cover how to actually make a mod I’m just going to explain what common pitfalls exist and how you can overcome them. You programmed your own mod but couldn’t get it to actually run. You downloaded a mod from a third party, followed the installation instructions, and nothing actually changed in the game.Step 6: Use your Quake launcher/mod manager/front-end to select the map and mod you wish to play.I’m assuming you’re reading this post for one of two reasons: If it is a mod (in PAK format, possibly with other files), then create a new folder in your Quake install like Quake\MyNewMod and extract all the files in there.If it is a map (in BSP format), extract it into the Quake\id1\maps folder.Step 5: Unzip your mods and maps into the right place in your Quake folder. It's possible Windows may not have the right old code libraries to run QuakeOn, but it should prompt you to install and run your own automatically if required. It will ask you to select your Quake executable, which should be the source port you installed in the previous step.Ĭhoose a mod (if needed) at top right, and choose a map from the selector at middle right. Extract the qon_prog.zip file into a new directory in your Quake install: Quake\QuakeOn then run QuakeOn.exe. It's really easy to use and handles every mod I've ever thrown at it - classic or modern.
