The error message will say 'Quake 2 has run into an error and has to close.' Quake II is a first-person shooter video game released in December 1997. It was developed by id Software and published by Activision.It is not a direct sequel to Quake; id decided to revert to an existing trademark when the game's fast-paced, tactile feel felt closer to a Quake game than a new franchise. The game's storyline is continued in its expansions and Quake 4.

Yamagi Quake II is an alternative client for id Softwares Quake II. Ourgoal is to provide the best Quake II experience possible, we strive topreserve the game play as it was back in 1997. Thus we aim mostly forbug fixes, stability and gentle enhancements were appropriate.

Features

Yamagi Quake II has a lot of unique features. The most notables onesare:

  • A modern OpenGL 3.2 renderer, providing a greatly enhanced look andfeel. The original OpenGL 1.4 and even the Software renderers arestill supported. Both 3D accelerated renderers support anisotropicfiltering and multisampling anti aliasing.
  • Full support for widescreen displays and arbitrary resolutions. TheHUD can be scaled to be readable on HiDPI displays.
  • Support for surround sound, from stereo up to 7.1 channels and evenHRTF. The background music can be played from OGG/Vorbis files, a CDdrive is no longer necessary.
  • A rewritten savegame system. Yamagi Quake II savegames are completelyreliable and backward compatible between releases.
  • Highly precise timings. For example, on a flat panel display with a59.95 hertz refresh rate and vertical synchronisation (vsync) enabledYamagi Quake II is running at exactly 59.95 frames per second.
  • In comparison with the original client over 1.500 bugs were fixed. TheYamagi Quake II client is very well tested and stable. The dedicatedserver is able to run for weeks without a single restart. Last but notleast the code is fully 64 bit clean and highly portable.

Yamagi Quake II supports the following platforms:

  • FreeBSD
  • Linux
  • OpenBSD
  • Windows

Some additional platforms are supported by the community. Yamagi QuakeII works on them, but there may be bugs. The Yamagi Quake II developersmay not be able to fix these bugs due to the lack of required hardwareor software:

  • Haiku
  • Mac OS
  • NetBSD
  • Solaris

Launch

On 2020-10-17 Yamagi Quake II version 7.45 was released. Changesare:

  • Fix some input option not getting saved.
  • Limit busywaits to the full client. This lowers the cpu consumptionof q2ded considerably.
  • Rework the build system to be more distribution friendly. The baseCFLAGS and LDFLAGS can now be overridden by the environment and byoptions passed to make. (by Simon McVittie)
  • Fix some corner cases of broken IPv6 connectivity.
  • Fix qport colliding between several Yamagi Quake II clients.
  • Keyboard keys unknown to Yamagi Quake II can now be bound.
  • Adaptive vsync is now supported by setting r_vsync to 1.
  • Implement coop_pickup_weapons. When set to 1, a weapon may bepicked up by coop players if the player doesn`t have the weapon intheir inventory or no other player has already picked it up.
  • In coop elevators wait for coop_elevator_delay seconds.
  • If cl_anglekick is set 1 angle kicks are ignored. This breaksthe gameplay a little bit, but helps against motion sickness. Thiscvar is cheat protected.
  • Add listmaps command and autocompletion for maps. (by JBerg)
  • Make wait in scripts wait for 17 ms. This fixes some movementmakros.
  • Support for Haiku. (by David Carlier)
  • Add a mods submenu. (by earth-metal)
  • Add the vstr command and nextdemo cvar. Ported from ioquake3.(by Denis Pauk)

If you’re planing to work on a bigger feature, please do yourself afavor and ask if we’re interested before spending time onto it. Wedon’t merge every feature that’s submitted to us just because the codeis already there. Maintainability, integration with the existing codeand our general focus are of great concern, too.
