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.

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.
