If this is the case, why do people still mail me asking how it is done. So here is a help file just in case you are completely lost. -==What You’ll Need==- Windows 95 28.8 PPP connection to a good server. QUAKE (Full or Shareware) -==What To Do==- 1) Connect to your server, using ‘Dial Up Networking’. Make sure that you have your PPP connection set up through ‘Dial-Up Networking’. 2) Click on the ‘Start’ button, and bring up the ‘run’ box. 3) Type "drive letter:\quake dir\q95.bat" where "drive letter" is the letter of the hard disk you installed it too and "quake dir" is the directory where you have installed quake. 4) This will start quake. In the quake menu screen, go to the 'multiplayer' then press enter. 5) At this stage you can go to the 'setup' screen and chose a name and cloth colours. (But remember if you are using version 1.01 and you have a space in the name you will appear as "unconnected' when you start the game). Accept changes and you will be back in the 'multiplayer' menu. 6) Then go to 'Join a game' then to 'TCP/IP'. 7) This is the last step before you game begin. Here you have to type either the 'IP' address (eg. 203.10.110.179) or the name of the server (eg. quake.netspace.net.au). ---===Happy Fragging===--- -==Other Stuff==- a) If you find that you don’t get to the top of the "frag" list straight away, don’t despair practise makes perfect. b) There is a excellent program called "Qspy" that will find you a fast server, * use it it will save you time *. It can be found at "http://www.panix.com/~sheaslip/qspy/". c) If it doesn't work, try exiting the game and repeating all the steps. If it doesn't work after that, well sh*t by a new computer. -==Special Tahnks To==- Id Software for releasing the best game ever in the history of everything.
