alternative to Quake 2 Starter? (1 comment)
Posted by azxx @ 04:40 CST, 11 February 2026 - iMsg
Quake 2 Starter ( http://q2s.tastyspleen.net/ ) was to Q2 what nQuake is to Q1/QW. But I tried it recently and it seems broken? Something in the package to do with the source port it seems? Is there a manual fix or alternative? These kinds of community installers are really good for getting new players up and running, and also good for a quick setup on a temporary computer.

It could have been great. But now it just is (dead). (11 comments)

Man. Why vedic? Or Brendan or whatever. Why Brendan?

Why did you work on this site for months, almost revived it, then deleted it all in a, what I can only describe as, the most retarded hissy fit I have EVER witnessed on the internet?

Whyyyyyyyyyyy

I wrote the guy an angry farewell letter (actually it was just a reply), but then deleted it the next day or so because of .... you know this feeling when you really CARE, but get the impression noone else really cares and will shit on you for caring? Yes, that.

So yes, I was addicted to Q3a and ESR as it was cool. And a too long time after admittedly. I was almost the last person who contributed to leave (some crazy people stayed with dead Q3a, I will not count them, or speak loudly about them...). This was my all. I lost girlfriends over Quake and ESR (yes really). I admired Sujoy the whole way, up until when he abandoned us. I loved all about this site: the freedom, the toxic flaming, all of it.

But now it's gone and I miss it so much I am angry about Brandan, for giving me hope and swiping it away under my feed just as I was getting comfortable again (well, lurking mostly, but still).

Brendan, would you axplain yourself? Or am I retarded and missed the explanation?

And while we're at it, why not recover the working parts of your edits, Brandan? You probably are a competent coder, it basically couldn't be worse as to what it is now. ?

Biased poll. If you're gonna have the option "a bit more than that" you should also include "a bit less than that." =)

The option "never" is always worth including too, just to be safe.

You have chronic journalistic cynicism. Please consult your local optimist at once.

Every poll should have a "Q3" option, or all our sociological experiments with the gullible readership of ESR will be in vain.

I hope it will be out within 2 weeks, but it will probably take a few more days longer.

Hmm... already pushed the other poll down, which imo was far better. It showed me, a person who didn't play any new games this year, what games to try out.

This one just shows when people think the demo will be here, which is next to useless information - the opinion of esr people won't have any effect whatsoever on the actual demo-date =)

The PK poll pushed that poll off the main page, not mine.

"Will you give the ut2004 demo a try when released?"

It was supposed to be amusing, that is if you know what 'two weeks' stands for in Rein's book.

Having played the demo at CPL Winter, over a month ago, i'd say yes it will.

Oh, you're just humor all the way. No, seriously, your comment was just stupid, think before you post.

I can't say that I think the demo will be released in time, neither can I say the opposite, only expect it to be late. Most of these "promises" are just thin air.
