Stand-alone Quake Engine Games On Amiga

[James]

There are seven games that I know of that can be run stand-alone on an Amiga using the Quake engine (Most so called Total Conversions can't).

4D Shooter



Multiplayer only, and only to be found in an obscure section of GameFront.com. Can still be found on Arc.org.

Alteria (Glitchy)






https://web.archive.org/web/20150215...ria/index.html

BattleMech

Chapter Honour (Demo)



Warhammer 40k.

https://www.quaddicted.com/files/mir...ragged.com/ch/

Unused monster model, can replace Quake Shambler.

Extra maps - no longer available.

https://web.archive.org/web/20000517.../firebase.html

Old website.

*Update*

The missing maps can now be downloaded from here:

Hack And Slash



http://hack-and-slash.sourceforge.net/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/hack...sh/2005.04.23/

OpenQuartz

http://openquartz.sourceforge.net/index.html

My updated version.

http://205.196.120.6/download/22dr89...lus_Extras.lha

More details, screenshots and extra downloads.

Transfusion (old version)



Fails the registered Quake check, but borrowing gfx/pop.lmp from OpenQuartz solves that.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/bloo...ansfusion/1.0/
Update
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bloo...nsfusion/1.01/

Several of them borrow parts from OpenQuartz but they do not use the entire ID1 drawer, unlike Half-Life/Turok/Left4Quake e.t.c.
If anyone knows of any more please let me know. Will update this with a lot more detail later... maybe.

[James]

Updated first post with a bit more detail, maybe it will be more useful/interesting to someone now...

Beautiful screenshots, also nice AFA OS many link do not work, where can I download Open Quartz?

Just tried them all and they appear to be working, archive.org can be slow sometimes... Have updated the OpenQuartz section in the first post.

[AMIGASYSTEM]

Ciao James, you can add the link, will my 62 years but I can not find it, thank you.

About AFA OS (I hope an update in the future), i made a nice Video Tutorial shows how to configure WinUAE.

James, how is your knowledge about QII mods that work on Amiga?

Im tempted to do some QII levels with Alien Breed 3d "look" so that I have something interesting to run on the Vamp once the FPU is added. ;-)

An update to AfA would be great, but I don't think it is going to happen.

Mods need conversion, AFAIK the only Mods that have been converted are available here (you still need the original mods too).

That would be nice as long as you are OK with converting it (or do you mean cosmetic changes to maps/models only). It would be great if somebody could make some more levels for the Quake Mod Portal Gun.

Then we could have a full fledged Portal clone on Amiga.

Or are you looking for something else?

[AMIGASYSTEM]

Ok thanks, if there are other engines you use I am happy to test them.

My initial though was to simply create a AB3d inspired WAD and start making Maps that look like AB3d but not necessarily be exact recreations.
Step 2, add AB3D like monsters and sound effects.
Then if it would "pick up" it would be great to see someone attempt more advanced modifications. Custom weapons, maybe some level conversion tools etc.
We'll see.. IMO oveclocked 060 +AGA is really too low spec to run Q2 decently so it all depends on the penetration of the Vampire when it gets its long awaited FPU.

It would be useful to test everything with Clickboom Quake to see what does and doesn't work - I think it has the same model limitations as the original DOSQuake so a Quake enhancement package I put together doesn't work with it. Model size limits were increased for GLQuake and WinQuake. GLQuake is also more limited than WinQuake in some ways...

Yes, just replacing graphics/sounds would be much simpler.

Amiquake is based on WinQuake so it would be interesting to see how many of those it could run.

Also, if anyone wants to have a serious crack at a AB3D remake on 68K you can use Odamex, apparently it supports all the features you need for a faithful Port.

OK did some tests and I must say that the graphics in all resolutions are satisfactory, for GFX I used Wazp3D,video recording is a bit 'jerky because my older PC, I attach little test video.

Yes, I've seen the XDelusion work with Odamex. Don't know how that ended up though. But in any case, my primary interest is to work with the Q2 engine as I imagine it is going to run smoothly on the Vamp once we get that elusive FPU.
To make it more Amiga-esque I want to use something familiar and iconic to Amiga users. AB3d fits the bill. ;-)

It seems like Quake Click Boom does not support Screens RTG (only AGA)and your MOD seems that they are not supported. MOD tested with Click Boom it worked "Your Path of Destruction (YPOD)".
GLQuake with the MOD "YPOD"It has a graphics problem on see screenshot weapons (you have an idea how to fix), the same "YPOD" with AwinQuake We see very well, i also tested the MOD "Death Mash and it goes well with both GLQuake that AwinQuake, see scereenshot.

[AMIGASYSTEM]

Two more successfully tested mod with AMiGA AFA OS

[AMIGASYSTEM]

I'm trying to start the additional MOD also AROS, but I can not find the parameter. The AROS tests and software alone since I'm using a virtual machine "VMWare Player"

Envenom works with AwinQuake, but crashes glQuake/WinUAE. It's a horror survival game similar to Resident Evil. Not fully finished but still playable.

I tested OpenQuartz with ClickBoom Quake a while back, it is possible to get it working, and it does support RTG screens.
That graphics problem is caused by a clash between the meshes in id1/glquake and the models in the YPOD progs drawer. To fix it delete the id1/glquake and YPOD/glquake drawers and run YPOD again. The best way to avoid most of these problems is to never run Quake directly from the id1 drawer. Create a Quake/Quake1 drawer and run Quake with the -game Quake1 parameter.

Updated the first post with a link to the missing Chapter Honour maps.
