Re: Returning to a 10 yr old game :)

Hehe, doh. Would love to but my favourite server is on the same protocol as the one im on. Its a CTF and really fast and fun. Are there more servers like this on 1.32c? or are they all TDM(DM)?

BTW ^misantropia^ thank you very much for the advice to clean out the base3q folder, it worked a charm :)

But why the reluctance to upgrade?

Re: Returning to a 10 yr old game :)

Ok, I ran Quake 3 arena as admin and performed the condump again, here is the output. I removed any irrelevant text before the first line (it was just people chatting saying 'gg' etc. Can you find any reason in here for my getting sent to the menu screen?

Returning to a 10 yr old game :)

Hi, I recently decided to dust off my copy of Q3:Arena and boot it up on my awesome pc and play it in its 640x480 glory :P. I played on a few servers for a day and all the old memories returned of how fun this game is. I then went on to install the latest patch: 1.32 i believe, however i found the s...
