Introduction: What is Tripod Quake(3PodQ)?] Tripod Quake, 3PodQ for short, is an add-on to Quake, a highly customizable game by id Software. 3PodQ exists as a data file without ever modifying Quake's original files. 3PodQ works completely as both a single player or(deathmatch and co-op) multiplayer game. ----- [Ib. Major Features] 3PodQ has: 1. Several New Weapons 2. New graphics 3. Enhanced Play ----- [Ic. What's New in this Version] 3PodQ History (Major Changes): v1.0-1.9 Private Version These versions had no new graphics, or models, but used the existing models in Quake for the grapple, etc.. This versions distribution was limited to Dave whom I used to DeathMatch with. This version had fragmentary grenades, the prox mines would attack their owner... you get the point. v2.0 First Public release... had new models, graphics, etc.. v2.1-2.9 Private I kept adding stuff to 3PodQ but I never got off my ass and uploaded the .zip file so only Dave and I ever played it. v3.0 Second Public release This version has the guided missile, pipe bombs, prox mines, holograms, grapple w/mdl, new sounds, bla bla bla.... --------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------- [IIa. How Do I Play 3PodQ in Single Player Mode?] 1. Download 3PodQ into a temporary directory. 2. Decompress 3PodQ into a SUBDIRECTORY under QUAKE. For example: If your Quake stored in C:\QUAKE, then decompress 3PodQ into C:\QUAKE\3PodQ. If Quake is in C:\GAMES\QUAKE, then decompress into C:\GAMES\QUAKE\3PodQ. 3. Run Quake with the command QUAKE.EXE -GAME 3PodQ. 4. Run Quake as you normally would. Weapons keys: Pipe Bomb - [ (to throw it), ] (to detonate it) A-Bomb- b Proximity Mines - p Hologram - h ----- [IIb. How Do I Run an 3PodQ Server?] 1. Follow steps 1 and 2 as above. 2. Run the server as you normally would. --------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------- [IV. How Do I Play?] Hmmm... let me think. 3PodQ will automatically bind all the keys for you. If the keys fail, you must bind them manually. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [VII.
