Some tutorials can be found here (the Inside3D site which was a sort of 'nexus' for QuakeC modders was shut down some time ago and while the community create InsideQC it looks like not everything survived the transition). 2020 Mods Folder RELEASE (Best Mods For Hypixel PVP Minecraft 1. But i think these days most people are using ericw's tools since they support some advanced features from modified engines (like the BSP2 format for larger maps and colored lightmaps).īeyond mapping, if you want to delve in QuakeC (the game's scripting language) you need the original QuakeC source code and a QuakeC compiler - while you can probably use the original QCC, i've seen FTEQCC from the FTE engine to be mentioned way more often. There are several variations, depending on the features you want. The map editor isn't enough, you also need the command line tools to 'compile' the map (this is how the Quake engine can support multiple and different editors: by decoupling the tools from the engine and the individual types of tools from each other - which to me is one of the best ways to architect and engine and its tools, but sadly most popular engines have forgotten it). I think some also use J.A.C.K., which is basically a Hammer clone, although i think it is abandoned now. Mods are made by the general public or a developer, and can be entirely new games in themselves, but mods are not standalone.

A mod or modification is a term generally applied to PC games. Saves now load quicker, bots now work better all-round. An add-on is often considered an extension that can be used to modify the behavior of existing features to the application or add entirely new features.

For making maps (the most common type of mod) you'll also need a map editor - currently the most common seems to be Tenchbroom, but it is far from the only option and a lot of people use other editors, such as BSP, QuArK, GtkRadiant and some people even use either the original Worldcraft 1.3 (i think) or a modded Hammer (from Valve) to make maps. The new patch, amusingly titled Update 1 given Quake’s age, may be only 45 Mb but it attempts to fix all of these problems and more. This is all you need for playing maps and mods. Biggest feature is the fact you can tweak almost every single aspect of the game, from weapon behavior to making your own mini gametypes. You may also want MiniQL (made by me) as a more straightforward and minimalistic launcher (you can also launch QuakeInjector from MiniQL if it is installed in the same directory). Excessive dawn (edawn) is a free Quake 3 Arena mod, with numerous improvements, both client and server side. You probably also want QuakeInjector, which is a 'quake mod installer' that handles dependencies. The most common engine by far is Quakespasm which keeps the original style but fixes bugs, reintroduces some features from the software renderer that were lost in the original OpenGL version (fullbrights, lightmaps that go above 100%, non-power-of-two textures, etc) and removes and raises some hardcoded limits. Used to be fine on Nightmare, Hard on some of the harder user maps. And it probably doesn't help that I haven't really played quake for 5 years. Beautiful levels, but it is extremely difficult. Check Quaddicted for some singleplayer maps. As for this mod, I've only played two levels, but it's pretty amazing what can be done with Quake at this point.
