novas Quake :-)

[mjnurney]

ive finally got around to playing with novacoders Quake (on aminet)

and the speed is great and it plays very well on a 68060 at 66mhz on low res, higher res does slow it down as you would expect.

a big well done to novacoder.

this is an excellent time to have a fast Amiga

Hit the Quake icon and wait a few seconds for quake to launch in native AGA. its well worth it folks. it runs as well as it did on my PC when the game came out, i bought it on release when ever that was (june 1996?)

Short: Amiga port of WinQuake v1.09
Author: novacoder
Uploader: novacoder
Type: game/shoot
Version: 1.12
Architecture: m68k-amigaos >= 3.1.0
Distribution: Aminet
Kurz: Amiga Portierung von WinQuake v1.09


Overview:


Port of WinQuake which is the "official" Source port of Quake to Windows.
WinQuake lacks support for high-resolution textures, has no "modern" 3D graphics (such as dynamic shadows) and lacks colored lighting.
It is good for lower-end computers, or for oldschool players who prefer the game's original look.


Requirements:

1) An AGA Amiga
2) A very fast 68060 processor (with FPU)
3) 32MB of FASTRAM
4) The original game or demo

It does look great, I can't wait to get my Apollo sorted so that I can finally play this without having to worry about my Amiga catching fire like I did with my old PPC.

Yeah, I just tried AmiQuake and it runs well in lower resolution. Great job nova! One more reason to push my card a little further.

it is a lovely game and this port works very well, but how can I look up and down using mouse. At the moment I can move forward/backward using mouse and I can't change it

 

[fitzsteve]

There is a mouse look button, I have it bound to mouse 2 (RMB) it's a hold to look so only used when I need it, mouse turn works... If someone knows how to perm fix mouse look let us know
