Quake2XLE Quake2 for Xbox Lantus Edition V1.00

This is Quake2 for Xbox consoles ported from Quake2Forge sources. The distribution comes with the shareware PAK file to get you started.

Disclaimer: Repi already ported Quake2 over 2 years ago. However I felt there were some things missing in his port so I decided to make my own. Repi's port contains hardware rendered graphics, which look far superior to Quake2xLE which uses SDL based software renderer. The choice is yours.

Features

  • Full singleplayer
  • Full multiplayer support
  • Mod Menu for expansion paks/TC's etc
  • Gamepad/Mouse/Keyboard support.
  • Customizable inputs

Currently not implemented

  • Walk Left stick Y

Controls can be customized via the 'Options' menu, and by editing your config.cfg files.


Advanced Control Editing

The following settings are to adjust analog sticks:

  • set j_strafe "<axis number>"
  • set j_throttle "<axis number>"
  • set j_ud_axis "<axis number>"
  • set j_lr_axis "<axis number>"

where axis number can be:

  • 0 = left stick left/right
  • 1 = left stick up/down
  • 2 = right stick left/right
  • 3 = right stick up/down

To alter look sensitivity use:

  • set m_pitch "<new value>"
  • set m_yaw "<new value>"

Misc

Screen position and size can be modified by opening up the Quake2 console and modifying the following values:

  • set vid_xbox_ystretch "0"
  • set vid_xbox_xstretch "0"
  • set vid_xbox_ypos "0"
  • set vid_xbox_xpos "0"

Netplay

Quake2xLE supports full online play. If you dont have a keyboard to enter IP addresses in the game. Open up your config.cfg file and add IP addresses of your favorite quake2 servers in the following:

  • set adr8 "<ip goes here>"
  • set adr7 "<ip goes here>"
  • set adr6 "<ip goes here>"
  • set adr5 "<ip goes here>"
  • set adr4 "<ip goes here>"
  • set adr3 "<ip goes here>"
  • set adr2 "<ip goes here>"
  • set adr1 "<ip goes here>"
  • set adr0 "<ip goes here>"

when you restart Quake2xLE you will be able to connect to your servers.

Quake2 server list can be found at http://www.gameaholic.com/servers/quake2/

Support over XLink/KAI should work fine. However this is untested at this time.


Notes on CDDA

CDDA audio works fine, however expect a slight drop in framerates since there is a performance hit associated with streaming audio as it requires CPU time.
