Quake 2 Source code for students by Theerthan You can also download from idsoftwares.com

12-22-2001

Some notes about this release on linux:

#1: it is recommended that you have a working Quake2 installation already
(i.e. download precompiled binaries and stuff, have /usr/local/games/quake2
with all the files etc.)

#2: it builds in debug, only ref_glx.so has been tested

once compiled, you need to create baseq2/ directory,
and symlink the pak, symlink debugi386-glibc/gamei386.so

then to start Q2, in debugi386-glibc:
ln -s /usr/local/games/quake2/baseq2
./quake2 +set vid_ref glx +set gl_driver /usr/lib/libGL.so

you will need to edit /etc/quake2.conf, make it point to the right place
for loading of ref_glx.so
(I just put '.' in my quake2.conf to rely on current dir)
