Quake II Better Than Ultimate

Post by PaulBearer »

So I downloaded this and while it works well under Win7 64bit, I have a few problems.

1) Quake 2 crashes at the end (?) of the Big Gun level, when the player entered an escape pod and everything explodes. This seems to be a problem many people have with the game, is there a fix for it?

2) I see no gun and that is extremely annoying. I have tried to change the set gun_x / set gun_y settings in the autoexec, but that didn't help. Can somebody tell me how I make the guns visible?

3) In general, those config files are... well... less than optimal. I didn't want to say "****". 8) So, in the configs for the add-ons, there are no keys defined for quickload/quicksave (well, that was easy to fix), but also no keys to change to a specific weapon... sure, I could copy from the main program's config those bind 1 "use Blaster" / bind 2 "use Shotgun" commands but I think the add-ons have different weapons, right? Do those commands work with the gun names from the main Q2?

I had the same problem with the 'Big Gun' level, appearantly it's a know problem. I think I got past that by starting the next level using the console. Didn't have any problem with being able to see the gun though.
