Quake 4 was ported to Linux by Timothée Besset in 2005, although the binaries themselves were later taken down along with the rest of the id Software FTP server by ZeniMax.

Having already gone to the trouble of getting the original Doom 3 binary working on my modern Arch Linux system, it made me wonder just how much effort it would take to get the closed source Quake 4 port up and running again as well.

#QUAKE 4 COMPATIBILITY ISSUES WINDOWS 7 HOW TO#

Maybe someone else knows how to get around the shortcomings of Intel graphics could help, but I have run out of ideas.A few months back I wrote an article outlining the various options Linux users now have for playing Doom 3, as well as stating which of the three contenders I felt to be the best option in 2017. LibGL: Can't open configuration file /home/efflandt/.drirc: No such file or directory.I know that when I was doing graphic benchmarks to compare the Intel and Nvidia graphics on my laptop, many of the benchmarks would not run at all on Intel graphics due to missing features. LibGL: Can't open configuration file /home/efflandt/.drirc: No such file or directory. LibGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_dri.so LibGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/tls/i965_dri.so LibGL: screen 0 does not appear to be DRI3 capable Ii libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 10.1.3-0ubuntu0.4 i386 free implementation of the OpenGL API - GLX runtime Ii libgl1-mesa-glx:amd64 10.1.3-0ubuntu0.4 amd64 free implementation of the OpenGL API - GLX runtime Ii libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 10.1.3-0ubuntu0.4 i386 free implementation of the OpenGL API - DRI modules I have to admit that the clock reduction of 2.93Ghz to 1.6Ghz doesn't make the frame rate decrease nearly as much proportionallyĬode: ii libgl1-mesa-dri:amd64 10.1.3-0ubuntu0.4 amd64 free implementation of the OpenGL API - DRI modules Testing it again after a few minutes get me only about 3600fps. Another thing is that the frame rates start to fall after some iterations of glxgears, with can be related to the speed step stuff of lowering the clock rate as necessary. So even with a integrated gpu, I think I should be getting better frame rates, after all the G41 is about 6 years newer than a GF4TI. With a Pentium 3 at 700Mhz and a GF4 TI4200 I think I used to get a little more than 4000 fps!. My Glxgears frame rate seems low on Ubuntu 10.04 (on Thrust tahr the frame rate is limited to the refresh rate, so it's useless), about 4200 fps, with a Core (2.93Ghz) with a G41 IGP. But when I run the software rendering mode on the same map with all the graphical settings of the software rendering mode at their maximum, it run perfectly. So it's not only a 64bit problem I think.Īm I using mesa software rendering? That would explain the extreme low performance (6-10fps) running Gran Turismo 3 on PCSX2 (altough the developers said in the PCSX2 forum that this game is extremely heavy and I need more cpu power to run it) and the bad performance in UT2004, where the frame rate is too slow to play on a large map (16 players) with all the graphical settings of the demo version at their maximum. 'Solved' it by running the demo on older Ubuntu (10.04).

PPS: I figured out how to get sound for this on a 64-bit system (needed 32-bit alsa-oss, although, I used synaptic to install it)ĭoom3-demo +set s_driver oss +set s_numberOfSpeakers 2Īoss doom3-demoI think I had the same problem running UT2004 Demo. I tried what was in following post, except substituting doom3-demo for what it shows for quake4, but still no sound and doom3-demo cannot find /dev/dsp:

But I have to figure out how to get audio working because it cannot find /dev/dsp which does not exist.

PS: doom3-demo runs fine for me as far as video (64-bit 14.04 using nvidia graphics), other than only having 4:3 video modes that get stretched on my 1080p HDTV.

#QUAKE 4 COMPATIBILITY ISSUES WINDOWS 7 MOD#

Currently I mostly play Team Fortress 2 on Steam (In Ubuntu 14.04), but was doing some minecraft Tekkit mod last year. I think it was Quake 2 CTF that I used to play on-line for many hours many years ago. I know that I found my Quake 3 pak files on my old PC for playing Quake 3 on a Raspberry Pi, but otherwise might need to see what Doom/Quake CDs I can dig up from my basement. I forget if I ever had Doom 3 or just the original Doom and Doom 2 (and Quake & 2 & 3). I am downloading Doom 3 demo now (< 100 KB/s), but it may be evening (Chicago time) before I can try it. From the libs it is looking for I am guessing that you are using Intel graphics which are not exactly optimum for gaming. home/efflandt/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/gamesSince the Doom 3 demo is 32-bit, if you are running 64-bit Ubuntu maybe you are missing some 32-bit libs or the game does not know where to find the 32-bit libs.
