Cannot play CQ3 in Skulltag

linuxlove · October 07, 2009, 04:48:55 PM

Been wanting to play it in skulltag for a while now for the really good OpenGL rendering it has, only to find out that Skulltag cannot play it due to licencing restrictions. Anyone know how to force it to play?

The current version doesn't support CQ3. AFAIK, the upcoming 98a release will include support. (Correct me if I'm wrong.)

GZDoom is a good alternative while you wait, as it also has very excellent, if not superior, OpenGL rendering.

I cant WAIT for 98a...i'll host a co-op server as soon as I could...

Yay Skulltag! There are a few of us here who love multiplayer ST.

Anyways, to play CQ3 RIGHT NOW, just download the 97e (now known as 98a) alpha version available here:

Chex3.wad will automatically be detected as long as its in your ST folder, so you're ready to go.

@CC: but there will be SO much more additions in the official release, so I wait.

I know. It will be EPIIIIC. But if you really need to play CQ3 in Skulltag (ie linuxlove), then you'll need the beta.

I can't wait for this release!

I've never had much luck with multiplayer CQ. but this sounds very promising (if not completely awesome

)

Don't worry. With CQ3 support, 98a will totally rock!

Josh: Yes. Yes it will.
