Now we all know the real issue over multiplayer on your "homebrewed" Quake is that there's usually no one to play against. The pre-defined servers are usually empty. The only way to get around that hassle was if you had the opportunity to create your own server and connect to it. Passa91 from YouTube has sent us an email saying that he has figured out a way to do just that, and he's even documented a how-to into a video. View it below: |

Thats awsome!
Connecting to PC servers is going to be cool until you get raped by some rocket jumping bunny hopping boosting mouse using player.
...Quake 1 wasn't exactly the "freelook" mouse version of Quake. Quake II allowed you to look up and down with a mouse. For Quake 1, you need to activate a hotkey to look up or down. So you'd still be up against a PC player on keyboards only.
Would be funny once you fragged a gamer, and taunted him that you used a stylus. ^_^
Mouse look isn't on by default, no, and I don't think it's in the options either. But you can add +mlook in the console or in your cfg file in Q1 for mouse look. It's that simple.

I did this as a proof-of-concept on the DCEmu boards about a month ago. Screenshot at the link. ^^
My Girlfriend was on her DS, me on my PSP and my PC running the server. It was pretty fun! ^^
since when is people learning how to use the "connect serverip:port" command in quake, news? i've been doing this since psp quake could connect to a hot spot.

crossplatform multiplayer is fun but kinda nonsence on practice, cuz you'll just sucj against others (take psp vs ds/pc controls....),after 5 fisrt minutes of fun you'll merely give up
I've tried it, and this thing rocks. :)
Keep up the good work!
but the main reason i got this was for online and i dont know how to get on. I have a router and quake connects, I choose "search for local games" and it sayno quake servers found.... Do i need an ip adress or something any help would be much appreciated thank you.
Where do i get this dedicated Server???!! ?_?
I used google but didn't found anything >.
