How to move from 1.16 to 1.32c

Post by YeLLoW »

This is an easy and fast manual how you can have both 1.16 and 1.32c versions installed.

1.Make a whole copy of Q3 folder (lets name it Q3-132)
2.Coz 1.32 uses a different protocol, more and some different commands, you have to delete all of yours CFG files (most important is to delete q3config.cfg from baseq folder)
3.Coz we don't need nemesis or other modification anymore, pls delete all non basic pk3 files from baseq folder (leave only pakX.pk3 and map pk3 files) and all non basic folders from your Q3-132 folder (like nemesis, freeze, instagib,shootie...)
4.Now its time to upgrade your 1.16 to 1.32c. First simply download this file and run it. For the location of instal don't forget to use your Q3-132 folder. Also install a punkbuster client for future use. You can turn it on and off anytime via multiplayer game menu. If everything goes well you will see in your baseq folder new pak3, pak4, pak5, pak6, pak7 and pak8.pk3 files.
5.Now we have 1.32 but we want 1.32c. Again simply download this. Its a zip file with quake3.exe file only. So just extract the quake3.exe from win32 directory to your Q3-132 directory and overwrite.
6. Now you are ready to join the 1.32 game.
