This happened to me at first too, but I think you need to download quake106.zip (the README mentions the older quake101.zip which doesn't seem to be available anymore). In summary, here's what I did (for steps 3 and 4 I looked at the Makefile for the quakeserver port): (1) $ fetch ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/unsup/intel_linux_quake101.tgz $ fetch ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/quake/quake106.zip $ md5 intel_linux_quake101.tgz quake106.zip MD5 (intel_linux_quake101.tgz) = bccaf31cf8f3a81003a8b03b437af067 MD5 (quake106.zip) = 8cee4d03ee092909fdb6a4f84f0c1357 (2) $ tar xzf intel_linux_quake101.tgz xquake (3) You'll need the unzip port for this step: $ unzip quake106.zip 'resource.*' $ cat resource.dat resource.1 > resource.exe $ rm resource.dat resource.1 (4) You'll need the lha port for this step: $ lha x resource.exe id1/pak0.pak $ rm resource.exe (5) $ ./xquake Added packfile ./id1/pak0.pak (339 files) FindFile: can't find gfx/pop.lmp Playing shareware version. Error: You must have the registered version to use modified games $ Now I don't understand, why am I getting this error message? I'm still running an old -current from Feb 10 97 00:00:00 GMT. Thanks very much for any help, Pius
