Great, I'm going to try the ebuild when I get home.

Naib · Post by **Naib** » Fri Oct 19, 2007 10:05 pm

There are some files you need to copy off the DVD (the *.pk4 and the megatexture directory) the ebuild tells you this tho
works great \o/

smoother then windows I swear

(Damm, it was the full Windows Version ;D)

ETQW still needs an ALSA config tweak to have proper surround sound with a SoundBlaster Live/Audigy soundcard, just like the other ID Software games.

ChrisJumper · Post by **ChrisJumper** » Sat Oct 20, 2007 4:39 pm

The game runs fine here!

No Problem with Installation.

Code: Select all

$ md5sum ./ETQW-client-1.1.r8.x86.run
89210dadaf7b55842fe1472dafac7cf8  ./ETQW-client-1.1.r8.x86.run

If you want to run the Game in another Speak as English just copy the Information in the Directory of you Language in the Base Directory of you ETQW-Installation.

Code: Select all

cp /mnt/cdrom/Setup/Data/base/Deu/* /opt/etqw-client/base/

It just overwrite the language.cfg and copy zpak_german000.pk4 into /opt/etqw-client/base/

Good Luck

interesting. I want to add CD-copy to teh ebuild to simplify the install, so a LANG option seems possible as well

PaulBredbury · Post by **PaulBredbury** » Sat Oct 20, 2007 5:54 pm

Use an ebuild named games-fps/etqw-data for the DVD data, just as with quake4-data.

carpman · Post by **carpman** » Thu Nov 01, 2007 12:29 pm

Ok i have updated to version 1.2 using ebuild but games seems slower to me?

It not as smooth, i have tried different server at different time of day but still the same.

Anyone else have same issue?

I didn't get any drop in performance. HOWEVER some ppl on the splashdamage forum and in #etqw.linux are reporting a drop

btw, the linux-client is heavily unoptimised atm (yet still run circles around vista

)

Good to hear. I get around from 5fps to 30 and 60 if i'm lucky. Now the strange thing is that i don't get lower or higher fps depending on what settings i use... So I get the same fps on 800x600 everything on low and 1280x1024 with everything on high... It's quite annoying because in areas with 8+ people it becomes unplayable. Maybe the ati drivers are to blame but q3 and darkplaces run fine how ever...

Thats Great game, but anyways i just had to ask... every time i enter server In wolfteam it talls me my network is off and wont let me play, know any way to make it work better? by the way not having trouble with this game.

ChrisJumper · Post by **ChrisJumper** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 11:10 pm

Hmm?!

Whats the easiest way to make an upgrade to Version 1.2-r2?!?
(The update-Button in Game won't work..)

Download the nomedia-Client and then?

And i can't connect at the time 1.1-r8 to the Online-Servers. Get it done if i install the 1.2-Version?

Naib · Post by **Naib** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 11:26 pm

in-game don't work for linux (plus would fail since the actual install data is r/w for root only)
get the ebuild from the bug and it will do it for you. You just need to fetch the FULL version (not the nomedia). Full version has some pk4 files that have been updated. So while they are not needed to play the game you will be missing out on new textures

zeroth · Post by **zeroth** » Sat Nov 03, 2007 11:23 pm

not working: Couldn't load fs.chk

I assume it just can't locate it's base dir... I've tried -base, -basedir, and -fs_game parameters...

Naib · Post by **Naib** » Sun Nov 04, 2007 10:21 am

it says that when some of the pk4,lang,megatextures havn't been copied into the expected location
what did you copy and to where?

There cames much more unknown Strings.. off course this will be fix with the NEXT ;) Patches. I think they just forgotten the Translation of the Changes in the Menus?!

Until this is fix i just use the English-Language Files ;)

did you get the -full- download, the nomedia version is next to useless

The FULL contains a texture pk4 file and a new language pk4 file (since menus have changed). At a guess you prob d/l the no-media version (I mean it offers a 18meg d/l as opose to a 260meg d/l)
I have no idea why they offered the 18meg nomedia cause it is useless. I have as TTimo to remove it from future releases

I can confirm that the nomedia version is useless, i used the full media version and updated patch 1.2 ebuild and it worked fine.
