There is a mem cvar "com_hunkmegs" that can be set to 54. Just looking around code.
Also there are com_ memory variables all over the place to set audio memory, etc. Don't find anything particular about a default memory for initiating the program: It takes what it takes. In default setting (being in windowmode to see stuff) the program eats 123-126 mg just starting. Loading first level it stays at 131 mg (at least today). No need to rename directories or anything: Just the exec, the baseq3 dir with packs and nothing else. There are 2 vars "developer" "logfile" that I made "resident" just to grab whats going on. Don't leave this "1" for normal playing on the config.file because writes a lot of stuff to disk and could slow down things. I have the demo paks that I use: If someone needs it, send me here a pm. |

No error appears, it is just started, loads the memory and after few minutes it returns most of the memory back. From snoopdos point of view it starts the game, opens powerpc.library, locks pak files and then nothing else.
Yes I have also some Quake 3 installation from MorphOS, but its 14 years old with OSP and other patches. I will try that as well. I am changing Voodoo4 by Voodoo3 now and add memory to Sonnet, lets see what happens... |

Remember that sometimes it gets in zombie state for a while (like a minute or so) on my MOS system. Don't know if that happens with real Amiga.
Better have the program in windowmode (fullscreen 0) to see if it crashes or not. No mouse grab done by me at this moment. Also probably MOS original exec did update "something" to the paks: I remember being non working at first states till it update. |

I have this on-going effort to collect all the port sources for Amiga platforms in one place, so you don't have to google for ages to find it all: https://github.com/AmigaPorts Currently there's only SDL-1.2 and MilkyTracker, but I hope to gather as much as possible. |

Some progress after all:
Changes voodoo4 to voodoo3 card so I could have 192 MB on Sonnet. As I have two Quake3 installations, one is not workingm one is working now: 1) Quake 3 with executable and baseq3 with content (from PC installation cdrom) => not working 2) Quake 3 from MorphOS from 14 years old backup CD works, but I am missing graphics from the menu and Single Player works but looks like trip on LSD without textures and polygons are dancing, it is really funny, but playable ;o)))) |

com_zonemegs is by default 24 and com_soundmegs 8. I read that both are actually subtracted from com_hunkmegs, but not sure. Setting it to 48 (so lower) results in that I can load the first map with all textures on high with sound, but now it is very slow. Setting to 48 with texture detail one notch lower and 800x600 also works at around 17 fps in open field |

You were right, it was just some settings, now game works and loooks great, just playing Single map by map and its very playable. It is not supr smooth, but I have no problem to win.
I still cannot believe my eyes, I play Quake3 on my classic Amiga! Cowcat and Hedeon you made my dreams come truth! ;o) |

OK, time for me to reach for my "I am lame" hat...
Sonnet lib v294, only things in Q3 folder are quake3 and baseq3 folder and that has 9 pk3 files copied over from a PC install of the full game (which works). Folder is named "Quake III" (with a space). I start quake3 with no command line options and it craps out with a storage exception. Sonnet has 192Mb, rest of Amiga has about 132Mb in it. 640x480 LE video mode works fine. What am I missing? |

Fixed multiplayer !
Connecting to internet servers works If you are really connected to the net (if not crashes). Killed someone out there Of course local lan works. Moved some stuff & little fixes. Hope didn't screw anything. Added mintriarea for performance: See Q2 or Blitzquake stuff to learn how it works. It has to be set before running the game( the var is in config.cfg).

@Cowcat
Great job with multiplayer and LAN. Hope you can get it down to at least 128MB. Fingers crossed!! |

Alpha6 is not working for me now. I tested it with Miami connected to LAN and also with no tcpip client started, both ends with Sonnet memory output CLI.

Weird: the only change is the correct tcp stuff (that was in old alphas) and some drawing stuff that really wasn't used. Maybe alpha6 is wrong: Uploaded a version that missed something, then deleted, fixed it and uploaded again. Fast before someone download it. Maybe corrupted??...... |

Ok. Something gets in the way once game records config.cfg. Multiplayer hangs here today but deleting config.cfg works again........
Game starts at least without going multiplayer? What about deleting config ? |

I am at work, but Alpha6 just generated Sonnet CLI output in Workbench, it did not start the game. I will check later this evening if config deletion will help.
