Imperfect JoeQuake FAQ 2.0:

What is JoeQuake?

JoeQuake is a Quake client written by Jozsef Szalontai. It has numerous graphical effects, advanced demo playback features (like Rewind), ability to output demos to AVI movies and more.

There are 3 builds of JoeQuake available: GL Build (joequake-gl.exe), Win Build (joequake.exe), and a Linux GLX version.

The Win build has many of the features of the GL build (demo menu, maps menu, non-graphical improvements), but most of the graphical improvements are not available.

Screenshots are displayed below.

Notable features in JoeQuake 0.14DEV:

1. Support for high resolution 24 bit color textures, skyboxes, charsets.
2. Uses the QMB particle engine for explosions and effects.
3. Demo play menu, ability to convert demos to AVI.
4. Maps menu makes using custom maps much easier.
5. Supports custom crosshairs and item textures.
6. Transparent weapon capability (r_drawviewmodel < 1)
7. Support for weapon/item bobbing (items move up and down)
8. Deadbody and Gib filters (cl_deadbodyfilter, etc.)
9. Non-skipping LG option (cl_truelightning 1)

Important improvements over WinQuake/GLQuake:

0. Adjust brightness and gamma in GL from menu
1. More precise aim; longer messagemode messages (44 chars)
2. No connection problems when using a router
3. Type cmdlist or cvarlist for list of commands/cvars
4. Automatic command completion (type c in console and press tab, e.g.)
5. Press up or down and cycle through command history even between sessions
6. Mouse wheel scrolls console; CTRL+UP/DOWN resizes console
7. FuhQuake-style crosshairs 2 to 6, support for crosshair images and positioning
8. On screen clock capability (cl_clock), show fps (show_fps) and show_speed (movement rate)
9. Pause and rewind/ff demo capability
10. Change the game dir while in JoeQuake (gamedir)

There are many more features, the above is a partial list.

Startup Problems?

If using zip format, put pak0.pak in c:\quake\joequake folder and everything else in c:\quake otherwise you will get a GFX.WAD error. The installer won't allow you to mess it up. Additionally, do not use -game joequake, this is unnecessary, just start JoeQuake as you would the original.

If you get a Glide2x.dll error or something about 65536 colors, you probably need to delete or rename OpenGL32.dll in c:\quake

The fix for those 2:

-------------------------

Quick Start Extras:

Things will be added to this list.

Download: Yellow No. 5's Texture Pack Sub 10 MB EZ Installer (9.03 MB)

Yellow No. 5's Texture Pack includes 531 textures, monster skins, weapon models (Plague's Pack) and textures from various sources including the Quake Retexturing Project. Looks very cool.

Download: Quake Retexturing Project - Unofficial Sub 6 MB 7-Zip (5.5 MB) (Requires 7-Zip or WinRAR to decompress)

The Quake Retexturing Projects textures are very faithful to the original ID Textures, they just look a lot better.

Other useful downloads can be found in the forum, including zipped versions of the above files.

Update:

If you are using JoeQuake for the first time, it is HIGHLY recommended that you copy your CONFIG.CFG in your Quake\id1 folder and copy it to your Quake\JoeQuake folder.

If you don't do this, you can't get to the console through the usual route, but there still is a way ...

Image

You can go to options and the goto the console (green arrow) or even better ... do the reset controls and the tilde key will again be bound to "toggleconsole".

This is a little awkward, it would be better if the "~" key were bound to toggle-console if no config is present, but all versions of Quake do that, the only difference is that JoeQuake isn't looking for your config in the traditional place.

This is a temporary and imperfect FAQ. I wanted to get some critical information here for now.

The field-of-view is set to something other than 90 (default), like FOV 110. So you can see more, but there is a little bit of the fish eye effect.

The weapon can be pulled back using a r_viewmodelsize less than 1, like r_viewmodelsize .75 so it still looks normal.

As far as the HUD goes, you can retexture the HUD just like any other textures in JoeQuake. It looks like Joszef is using VIEWSIZE 110, which shows health and armor, but not weapons and ammo for guns other than the current one. (VIEWSIZE 120 is no HUD, 100 is the default.)
