This sounds really cool :)

But could someone explain to me how to burn it please (like all of the preperations and the structure)? Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Nevermind, I didn't know this wasn't a selfboot, so I thought I was doing something wrong.

The version 1.1 should be released in about a month or two, so I would like to know if anyone has any suggestions on changes and features to implement.

Some of the last changes are:
:arrow: Added an ip.bin file.
:arrow: Modlist support for /id1 directory.
:arrow: Significant changes to the analog input support. Now the analog stick's axes can be bound to any command, and the "Axis/Trigger Function" options are gone.
:arrow: Added the Timescale extension.
:arrow: Added sv_compatibility cvar, to allow both network gaming and demo recording compatible with normal Quake.

And here's some things I'll try to implement:
:arrow: 640x240 resolution.
:arrow: Auto-repeat for keys and buttons while in the console or menu.
:arrow: VMU LCD support.
:arrow: Faster translucent effects in the Windows version.

I can't start the Windows binary even though I've the latest DirectX version installed. Following error occurs:

"Draw_CachPic: failed to load gfx/box_tl.lmp"

That has nothing to do with DirectX, your /gfx/ directory is missing a file.

1.1 sounds promising! Especially being able to run in 640x240 resolution.
I guess network-play for us without BB-adapter is still far away, but otherwise that would be a nice addition (And a first. :)). I don't have any other ideas for the moment, but Ill post if I have.

But that's really weird since it's the original Shareware PAK.

I wrote::arrow: 640x240 resolution.
Done. The aspect of the 2D elements, including the particles, aren't corrected, so it looks a bit weird. However, it looks quite nice, and runs smoother than 640x400.

I'll probably add a 320x480 mode too.

I tried bin2boot, but when I put the disk in the dreamcast, it selfbooted and loaded the Sega screen, but then it showed a screen saying "no game detected - please swap disk" Is there a special method I need to use to make this game self-boot? Thank you if you could help me.

That's really a nice idea. I think 320x480 will look awesome! :o

Bin2Boot should work fine. However, BootDreams is much better!

About the disc structure, this should do:

1st_read.bin
IP.BIN
Quake\ID1\autoexec.cfg
Quake\ID1\PAK0.PAK
Quake\ID1\PAK1.PAK

By the way, I would like to say that this is the best port of Quake I have ever played.

:arrow: Rewrote the jump pack support, using the KOS driver (it was using the raw method before). Now I only have to adjust the strenght of the default effects, which are too weak right now. Anyway, I won't assure the default effects will work well on official jump packs, because I only have an unofficial one.

:arrow: Resolutions up to 768x576 are selectable in the modlist now. It doesn't matter much, since all of them runs very slowly. By the way, resolutions 640x400 and above will limit the heapsize to 8 MB.
I wrote:I'll probably add a 320x480 mode too.
Done. It runs 1 FPS slower than 640x240.

Thought I already replied: It's nice to hear your progress :D I really can't wait to see 320x480 in action! Should look like your new PS2 game (as some PS2 games seem to use that mode) :)
