Light maps aren't in yet, which is probably what you're seeing.

yeah well thats what i tought but still wonderfull job so far

Glad you guys like it.

Particles are a known issue, and are in the bug tracker.

Mipmapping will probably be added, but is dependent on a required overhaul of the texture management system.

We'll only add vsync after optimisation, as otherwise we can't accurately record our frame rate.

I should add that my time working on Quake is limited, and will probably end in the next few weeks due to events at my job. Chris Swindle will continue the project though. (I'll write more about this in my development diary soon).

So unfortunately any PSP Quake requests directed solely at me will likely go ignored. Sorry guys.

BTW if you find bugs, please add them to the bug tracker, but make sure you've read and understood all of the existing bugs first (including closed ones, since they'll be fixed in the next release).

Having said that, last I heard was that it wasn't going to be released just yet, if ever.

Anyhow PeterM, great work :)

If your talking about McZonk then the source to the Quake 2 port was released. I know i read it. it was on the TEE server when the first demo was released.

How can I get the source code of the previous version (V2)? I want to try to rip Infrastructure & Ad-Hock modules from it, and to add them to the V3 sources, include them into makefile, compile it... and, maybe, play multiplayer :-)

You can just download the latest source and build, I added infrastructure mode in a few days ago (seems to work, but no gaurentees as to the quality, any feedback welcome).

Hi Chris!

I have compiled the latest sources and tried infrastructure multiplayer, but it didn't work (but it worked on V2!) I used a laptop as a server, a Wi-Fi access point and a PSP as a client.

I can also test Ad-hock multiplayer, when you implement it - I have 2 PSP units.

GL in Quake-PSP dev! ;-)

so far there arnt really anything to report the current code is stable it mostly feature that are missing like lightmap, console typing, but speed wise its perfect i did see some what i guess is v-sync problem but aside from that the game is running great and with nive resolution compared to the v2

Stealth Kill · Post by **Stealth Kill** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 7:16 am

Can someone make me a Zip or rar file of the source please.

PeterM · Post by **PeterM** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 7:18 am

Or you can just get it from subversion, which you'll have if you compile anything for PSP anyway...

Stealth Kill · Post by **Stealth Kill** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 5:51 pm

where can I download the subversion?
is the source included there??

PeterM · Post by **PeterM** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 5:55 pm

Read the post I put on the previous page. It (and the pages linked thereof) tells you exactly how to get and compile the source.

Please, no more stupid questions. I will not hand everything to you on a plate - development involves work.

Stealth Kill · Post by **Stealth Kill** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 8:13 pm

i got it.

thx thx thx thx thx thx thx

Stealth Kill · Post by **Stealth Kill** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 10:47 pm

I compiled the quake source.

in this version infra and ad-hoc not working

can you add the infrastructur and ad-hoc mode?

The texture graphics are perfect.
WOW

PeterM · Post by **PeterM** » Mon Apr 23, 2007 12:48 am

Glad you got it working!

There are some things which were present in the previous release which need to be added back in before we release this version.

You'll need to wait for those unfortunately.

Stealth Kill · Post by **Stealth Kill** » Mon Apr 23, 2007 12:58 am

Can you try to make the On screen keyboard working with
Custom firmwares?

PeterM · Post by **PeterM** » Mon Apr 23, 2007 1:03 am

Please check the bug tracker before making any more requests.

Infrastructure mode is working, however you need to run it under OE and in the normal game folder rather than GAME150.

I´m wating for the release.

Great job, guys! It compiled no trouble, and runs fast and smooth. The wider FOV is actually good for first-person shooters like this.

Where can I download the source of V2?

PeterM · Post by **PeterM** » Mon Apr 23, 2007 7:50 am

We used CVS instead of Subversion for V1 and V2. Instructions for access here:
https://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=158726

You may need to use the Cygwin setup tool to download CVS for Cygwin if you don't have it already.

Uh, subversion works fine. SourceForge supports both. The way to checkout with subversion is:

Code: Select all

svn co https&#58;//psp-quake.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/psp-quake psp-quake

Subversion reports the last change being 5 days ago, so I'd say it's up to date.

I've tested infrastructure multiplayer on the latest build. Here's a photo (500KB):

I'm pretty sure that's a known bug, and has been in the bug tracker for a while.

Please please remember guys, the purpose of Subversion is not to give everyone an up-to-date build. It's for Chris and I to collaborate and to satisfy the GPL. Therefore, the code will have lots of bugs in it, and we probably know about them all.

Of course, bro! I do NOT share this build! I play infrastructure only on my own PSPs!
