Posted by Terifire @ 10:33 CDT, 27 September 2008 - iMsg

I was wondering if there is any way to 'downgrade' my quake3 so I can watch dm_48 demos, seismovision fucks up quake.

I've got quake3 installed 2 times, one for playing, the other for viewing older demo types, but sadly, it installed version 1.30(.dm_66), and trying to run point release 1.17 over it just makes it crash.

use Seismovision
no need to have multiple installs or anything
watch any demo from any patch/mod
with the exception of Q3test demos

seismovision provides q3 executables of every version (last time i used it). rename the executable to exe. remove the latest patch pk3's... one by one from the latest to the oldest until the game runs fine. pak0 release needs the cd in drive though (i think that was 1.11 version)..
