Released! Grab it here http://coburn.condemned.com/files/unsup ... eQuake.zip

Please be sure to read the text file that comes with it, I hope Fragger
decides to implement it into JoyMenu :p

If it has any bugs either email me or post it here, thanks.

Oops, that version has a bug which stops saving properly, don't burn it!
Wait till I can find another place to upload 1.0a.

hey Tyne, thanx man! u are my hero!
i have QuakeDC with frikbot, and was anoyed of play due to i could save
i only have a standard vmu to all my games and wouldn't erase them all just to save quake
here in brazil is much hard to find a vmu to buy and quake isn't worth sacrificate all my saves, i'd play q3 arena instead
but if ur little miracle works, i would be eternally thankfull

Tell me how it works out.

TheDumbAss · Post by **TheDumbAss** » Fri Apr 05, 2002 5:26 am

It works!
My save was 8 blocks

good job tyne.

one complaint is your binding of all the dc_d pad directions to impulse 100. Two of the dpad buttons are needed to do weapon selection.

oh... one other complaint is that your defult.cfg only has the controller keys configured. Which makes the keyboard not work. Some people do have dreamcast keyboards

one way to fix both of those is to just paste this bit at the bottom of your own defult.cfg (eather the original or your own custom cfg) and useing it instead of the one packaged with the mod currently.

Code: Select all

//
// Dreamcast Controls
//
bind "DC_TRIGL" "+jump"
bind "DC_TRIGR" "+attack" 
bind "DC_A" "+back"
bind "DC_Y" "+forward"
bind "DC_B" "+moveright"
bind "DC_X" "+moveleft"
bind "DC_DUP" "impulse 10"
bind "DC_DDOWN" "impulse 12"
bind "DC_DRIGHT" "impulse 100"
// bind "DC_DLEFT" "impulse 99" // saved for other use

i do have one problem...whenever i saved a quake DC game, it saved it fine but it wouldnt let me save over it. So if i wanted to save the game as i go along, i have to save multiple files...which gets rather annoying ^_^ anyone else have this problem?

DCmad · Post by **DCmad** » Fri Apr 05, 2002 7:23 pm

if u have the standard vmu, try to remove it, delete the old file, put it back, and save he game
can be boring to do it whenever you want to save, but is easyer than wait for a new mod. it would be great too!

Thanks TheDumbAss, I completely forgot about weapon switching and keyboard support, I'll upload a new version as soon as possible.

Uh? I thought I fixed keyboard support.

Post by **Specially Cork** » Sun Apr 07, 2002 3:16 pm

This mod is cool,

finally I can try and complete Quake! Im going to wait until it gets put into Joymenu though then the whole Quake DC package will be pretty much complete.

Im presuming it doesnt work with raptors though...

see if aJay can sort that one out I suppose.

spaceboy100 · Post by **spaceboy100** » Mon Apr 08, 2002 6:50 am

Yeah I agree me too,
This is something that has been needed for ages,
and Im glad someone had the capabilities and inclination to actually do it,
that said, joymenu is too cool to go without,
so if this could be included it would make my day. (anyone...)

Only Fragger can add full joymenu support right now... since he's the only one with the full source still (not trying to rush you Fragger)

I have started adding the small save support to Frik's menu. Probibly take less than an hour to finish it. But... its gettiing that free hour thats the problem.

Post by **Tyne** » Mon Apr 08, 2002 8:12 am

It'd take less than 10 minutes to add the small save code into FrikaC's menu if you know what you're doing. Also remember the code is marked, just read the text file.

I wonder if Fragger has read this yet ..

I've read

.

But as I said in the other topic, the next version will take time to be released, because I really want to make it the final version. I guess it will take about 2 months.

English speakers, please don't get angry at me...
