This looks really cool, but… the download link of the source code is down.

No, Quake 3 uses OpenGL for graphics. The only DirectX being used is for keyboard/mouse/peripheral input.

This is supposed to use DirectX, is it not?

Then why am I still getting errors about the loading of OpenGL?
This is worrying seeing as I don’t have a card that supports OpenGL.

i get this error – before loading levels :
‘user interface is version 3, expected 6′

——————————————

For people get default.cfg missing error :
*.PK3(s) are archive file, you can extract em by 7zip or winrar
default.cfg file is in ..\baseq3\pak0\ Directory

make sure ‘cgamex86.dll’ and ‘qagamex86.dll’ and ‘uix86.dll’ are compiled successfully and placed in C:\Quack3 folder

run quake3.exe from C:\Quack3

for run game directly from visual studio :
copy whole ‘baseq3′ folder from C:\Quack3 to ..\Quake3_Arena_VC9_NET_MCPP_Port\code
then run game by pressing ‘Start Debugging’ button in visual studio

Vlad – hmmm, common architecture, that’s a tough question. Besides the graphics engine part, the rest of the game code is really just a code interpreter that’s designed to run mods. The original Quake 3 game is in itself just a mod. That’s why you see little variants of Q3, such as capture the flag, that can change the original game without using a different exe.

Hello Greg,

I try to compile your solution with Visual Studio 2010 and with DirectX SDK of february 2010.

VS2010 did a conversion of the project with this result: http://djoni.be/uploads/UpgradeLog2.XML

I’ve a lot of warnings when I try to rebuild the solution: http://djoni.be/uploads/warnings.txt

I hope it will help u

Regards,

John

[...] Dolley has finished the Quake 3 Arena .NET Port! The retail copy of Quake III is needed to run this source, it does not work with a demo version. [...]
