Setting The Game Up

Unread post by Tommy »

When running Quake 2 for the first time there are a few things you need to do to get yourself setup. Do this even before visiting our server (and still do it even if you have.)

Launch the game directly by double clicking on the application's icon (don't go to a game server). Hit the esc key and you will come to a menu of plaques.

Choose the video plaque. From there you will see the first option is called driver. It will probably be set to software. use the arrow right key to select default opengl. esc back out of the menu. When you play next time you will be amazed at how much better the game will look (it will no longer be all pixelated).

Hit esc again, this time choose the multiplayer plaque. From there choose player setup and then download options. there will then be a list of items. Make sure they are all set to yes.

These settings will greatly improve your Q2 online experience :)
