Has anyone gotten the new Quake 2 3.21 release to compile successfully on their machine?

Fwee! I got it to compile! I still have to execute it from the same directory (so no making a symbolic link to /usr/local/bin and then just typing "quake2" anywhere to get it to run), and it doesn't seem to support 22khz sound, but everything else runs great! Even save games work in single player, which a reviewer of this new port said didn't.

Unfortunately I can't seem to find the infamous "crusher.dm2" demo anywhere. Anyone have any links?

I'm lost on this (not a big Quake fan, more UT :D) is this the full code release of Q2 that was announced last month? If this supports the mods also, it might be worth checking out...at least the CTF wasn't too bad ;)

CTF was never matched ever again. All hail Threewave Quake 2 CTF. ^_^

Tks for the link, CLOSER!

70.9 FPS average on my GF2MX 400 (v2314 nVidia drivers)

with or without pageflipping?

on my setup, I get 130fps on demo1.dm2 without it and 180fps with pageflipping in 1024x768 :cool:

Without. Unfortunately I don't have the right combination of X server setup with resolutions and such to activate the page-flipping feature of the latest nVidia drivers.

It's still plenty fast for me, though. =')
