I think that only a few of us remember about the first part of this game. The modern gamers can not understand why big men have such feelings for a game with such old computer graphics. Unfortunately, currently the developers don’t work on interesting history and atmosphere for a game, they use all of the resources for the development of the graphics engine. The besit examples of such strategy are the games Crysis or Assassins Creed. These games look beautiful, but they attract only small children. This children, because of their age, doesn’t play a games developed by Sierra or Luckas Arts and therefore have no idea how interesting and entertaining a lovingly programmed computer game can be.
I discovered a few days ago a small HOWTO, which describes how to run Quake 1 under Windows XP with a high resolution and bit 3D.
Everything you need is the game Quake 1, 2 patches (1.0-1.06, 1.06-1.08) and GLQuake.
GLQuake makes it possible in the combination of OpenGL and DirectX sound to run the game Quake I on Windows XP with a very good graphics.
I tried first Quake 1 on Windows Vista, but it didn’t work. Then I was able to run it on my Medion Akoya mini under Windows XP. Unfortunately, I have currently no much time to play, otherwise I would play the game to the end within a week or even less. But perhaps it is better so I will enjoy it:)
