quake1 dos源代码最新版本

   This is for debugging. It displays various network statistics.

slist
   Looks for Quake servers on a local LAN (or over a null modem
   cable).  This will NOT go outside the local LAN (will not cross
   routers).


LANs
====

Here are the LANs that are supported by the Quake test
release.  For each one, you'll be told how to connect to a server
*if it is not on your local network*.  If it is, you can use the
"slist" command and connect by hostname.  See the main readme for
a discussion of the connect command.

IPX
---

Quake has been run with Novell's ODI IPX stack under DOS, PDIPX with packet
drivers under DOS, and the Microsoft IPX stack in a Win95 DOS box.  When
connecting to a server using IPX, you specify its network:nodeaddress (like
12345678:1234567890AB).  If you are on the same network, you can just specify
the node address.  If you are doing a connect command from the console, a
full IPX address must be enclosed in quotes.

For example, the server's IPX address is "00FADE23:00aa00b9b5b2", you would
enter: connect "00FADE23:00aa00b9b5b2"

Win95 TCP/IP
------------

Please see the Win95 section of this file for details about playing using
TCP/IP under Win95.

Kali
----

To Quake, Kali appears to be IPX.  Once you've got Kali up and running, run
Quake as if it was on an IPX network.

Beame & Whiteside TCP/IP
------------------------

This is the only DOS TCP/IP stack supported in the test release.
It is not shareware...it's what we use on our network (in case you
were wondering why this particular stack).  This has been "tested"
extensively over ethernet and you should encounter no problems
with it.  Their SLIP and PPP have not been tested.  When connecting
to a server using TCP/IP (UDP actually), you specifiy it's "dot notation"
address (like 123.45.67.89).  You only need to specify the unique portion
of the adress.  For example, if your IP address is 123.45.12.34
and the server's is 123.45.56.78, you could use "connect 56.78".

Playing over the Internet
-------------------------
Yes, you can play Quake over the Internet.  How many people can be in
the game? That depends.  How smooth will the game be?  That depends.
There are just too many variables (bandwidth, latency, current load,
etc...) for us to make any kind of promises about Internet play.


Serial/Modem
============

The Quake serial driver supports two COM ports.  Although they are referred
to as COM1 and COM2, you can configure them to use any normal hardware
COM port (1 thru 4 on most PCs).  The com ports are used with interrupts,
so their IRQ may not be used for another purpose (such as a LAN adapter
or sound card).  The IRQ may not be shared with another device either;
not even another COM port.  A client can only be connected to one server
at a time, so multiple ports are really only useful on a server.
When using modems, the client must originate the call and the server
must answer.  This holds true even for a two player, non-dedicated
server configuration.

In the Multiplayer menu, the default modem string is "ATZ".  If your modem
games are too slow, you can change this string to the appropriate one for
your modem as listed below in the "Modem Strings" section.


The COMx commands
-----------------

Use the menus for serial play whenever possible.  The console
interface is only for unusual configurations.  It is much more
difficult to understand and use correctly.

Those of you who do use the console commands for serial play need to
know that the menus always use the first Quake COM line (COM1); yes,
even for COM2.  The names COM1 and COM2 here mean the first and second
serial ports, not necessarily the PC COM1 and COM2 ports (although those
are the default configurations).

There are two commands to support serial/modem play for Quake.  They
are: COM1 and COM2. Entering one of these commands with no arguments
will display the status of that serial port, similar to this:

Settings for COM1
enabled:   true
connected: false
uart:      16550
port:      3f8
irq:       4
baud:      57600
CTS:       ignored 
DSR:       ignored 
CD:        ignored
clear:     ATZ
startup:
shutdown:  ATH

When used with arguments, these commands change the settings and
status of the COM ports.  The possible arguments are listed below;
examples follow.

enable | disable
   "enable" means that your configuration is complete and you want to use
   the COM port.  "disable" is used to turn off a COM port, usually to
   change its settings.  The default (initial) state is disabled.


modem | direct
   Use one of these two to let Quake know if you are using a modem or a
   direct connection (also called a null modem).  Quake uses this to know
   if it needs to handles modem initialization strings, dialing sequences,
   and hangup procedures.

reset
   This will reset the COM port to its default settings and state.


port <n>
irq <n>
   These are used to set the I/O Port and IRQ that your serial port uses.
   The default values are: port=3f8 irq=4 for COM1 and port=2f8 irq=3 for
   COM2.  Note that the port number is displayed in hexadecimal; to enter
   it you would use something like "COM2 port 0x2f8"; the "0x" preceding
   the "2f8" indicates that you are giving the value in hexadecimal
   otherwise decimal is assumed.


baud <n>
   Sets the baud rate.  Valid values for <n> are: 9600, 14400,
   28800, 57600, and 115200.  57600 is the default.  Please note that
   this is the baud rate used for the uart, not your modem.  It is
   perfectly valid to use 57600 on a COM port that is connected to a
   28.8 modem.

8250 | 16550
   Specifies the type of uart chip in your system. Normally this is
   automatically detected, one of these need only be used if your chip
   is incorrectly detected.

clear
startup
shutdown
   This allows you to specify the clear, startup, and shutdown strings
   needed for
a modem for playing Quake.  If you've found values that
   previously worked
with Doom, use them here.  If you are playing over
   a null modem cable,
leave these blank.

-cts | +cts
-dsr | +dsr
-cd  | +cd
   These determine if certain serial control lines should be honored or
   ignored. The "-" means you want that line ignored, the "+" means to honor
   it. "cts" is an abbreviation for "clear to send", "dsr" for
   "data set ready", and "cd" for "carrier detect".  Do not
change these
   values unless you are absolutely positive you need to. The default is to
   ignore all 3 lines.

Quake always uses no parity, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bit; these
values can not be changed.  The baud, port, irq, and uart type can
not be changed on an enabled port, you must disable it first.


Configuration examples
----------------------
Example1: You have a machine with two serial ports you are going
to use as a Quake server.  COM1 will be using a null modem cable and
COM2 will be connected to a 14.4 modem.  You would use commands similar
(the startup string would almost certainly be different) to these:

COM1 baud 57600 enable
COM2 baud 14400 modem startup AT\N0%C0B8 enable


Example2: You are going to use your machine to connect to a dial-up
Quake server with your 28.8 modem connected to COM2.  You would
use a command something like this:

COM2 baud 57600 modem startup AT\N0%C0B8 enable

Note the baud rate is not the same as the modem speed.  This allows
the modem-to-uart communications to occur at a higher rate than
the modem-to-modem communications.

Connecting to a serial Quake server
-----------------------------------

Connecting to a Quake server over a serial/modem connection is done
using the "connect" command.  The command "connect 5551212" would try to
connect to a Quake server at the phone number 555-1212.  Note: your local
phone company would probably appreciate it if you didn't try this number!

If you are using a null modem cable, you can type "connect #".
Quake will then attempt to connect to the server.


Known problems / workarounds
============================
Packet drivers with PDIPX - there is a bug that stops a server running on
this combination from responding to the slist command.  Use the patched
version of PDIPX included with Quake to correct this problem.

SLIST sees no servers - Some PCMCIA ethernet cards and PPP drivers will
not do the UDP broadcasts needed for the SLIST command (search for local
games from the menu) to function correctly.  In these cases you must
connect to a Quake game using either its IP address or hostname
(DNS resolvable hostname, not the hostname variable in Quake).

"BW_OpenSocket failed: 5" - This error is specific to the Beame and
Whitesdie TCP/IP stack.  This stack uses DOS file handles as it's
socket handles.  This error occurs when DOS runs out of file handles.
You need to increase the number specified by "FILES=" in the DOS
config.sys file.

Severe lag using TCP/IP under Win95:
	- Occasionaly when you first connect in to a Quake game using Win95
TCP/IP you will experience severe lag and not be able to control your
player's actions.  This usually clears up in 10 to 15 seconds.  
	- There is apparently a strange limbo state for Microsoft's File and
Print sharing.  This has been seen when it was installed and then later
removed, but it still appears on the menus.  For some unknown reason
this causes severe lag for a Quake game.  You need to go back and make
sure that it is either completely installed or removed.
