Play Quake II with Berserker@Quake2

Bethesda Launcher.
Quake 2 free download - Quake II: Action Quake II, Quake 4 demo, Quake III: Team Arena demo, and many more programs.

Quake 2 was created for Windows 95/98 systems. Installation onto a 64 bits version of Windows 10, 8 and Windows 7 seems to be possible and the game also starts properly. However, getting the game going in full screen is a challenge. Resolutions higher than 1600x1200 are not available. And you can only look around with your mouse by pressing a key. All in all pretty 90s!

So you can head over to GOG.com and download the complete Quake II: Quad Damage game. It includes Quake II, The Reckoning and Ground Zero mission packs, AND the Extremities Netpack. Awesome.

But, as with almost all games on this website, there's also a source port available for Quake 2. And it's a good one. Only downside is that it's hosted on a Russian website. So you have to look carefully between all the Russian characters. Visit the project website at http://berserker.quakegate.ru if you like. Thankfully, you can also download full packages from moddb.com.

Quake II RTX is a cutting-edge, ray-traced reimagining of id software’s old school classic, by NVIDIA’s Lightspeed Studios. Global lighting effects, including realistic reflections, refraction, shadows, ambient occlusion and global illumination are a result of the path-traced simulation of light.

So, what do you need to get this thing going?

Stuff you need

A decent graphics card
The original Quake 2 game
The Berserker@Quake2 program files (see below)

Install Quake 2

Quake 2 Win 10

Choose full installation!

Download and install Berserker@Quake2 files

Download the 1.46 package at ModDB
Copy the contents to the Quake 2 game folder, in this case c:gamesquake2
If you want to use the high resolution pack (highly recommended!) you have to download an additional file of 500+ MB. Download the _BersPak1.pk2 file from the berserker website (scroll down) and copy it to the baseq2 folder of the Quake 2 installation folder, in this case c:gamesquake2baseq2

Start and configure the game

Start Quake 2 by double clicking the Berserker.exe file in the Quake 2 installation folder, in this case c:gamesquake2Berserker.exe
Initial startup may take some time, because cache files need to be created. Be patient!

- Set fullscreen to yes if you want to play the game in fullscreen mode
- Set anisotrophy to level 16
- Choose more options.. and check if the settings are ok

- Press esc twice and choose one of the difficulty levels to start the game!

Screen brightness

The Berserker@Quake2 application tends to increase the brightness of the screen. When the application is closed, these settings stay enabled. After a system restart with Windows 7, default brightness will be restored. In Windows 8, the brightness remains increased even after a restart until you set them to default with your video driver software. In Windows 10, brightness goes back to normal after the application closes.

Yamagi Quake II is an alternative client for id Softwares Quake II. Ourgoal is to provide the best Quake II experience possible, we strive topreserve the game play as it was back in 1997. Thus we aim mostly forbug fixes, stability and gentle enhancements were appropriate.

Features

Yamagi Quake II has a lot of unique features. The most notables onesare:

A modern OpenGL 3.2 renderer, providing a greatly enhanced look andfeel. The original OpenGL 1.4 and even the Software renderers arestill supported. Both 3D accelerated renderers support anisotropicfiltering and multisampling anti aliasing.
Full support for widescreen displays and arbitrary resolutions. TheHUD can be scaled to be readable on HiDPI displays.
Support for surround sound, from stereo up to 7.1 channels and evenHRTF. The background music can be played from OGG/Vorbis files, a CDdrive is no longer necessary.
A rewritten savegame system. Yamagi Quake II savegames are completelyreliable and backward compatible between releases.
Highly precise timings. For example, on a flat panel display with a59.95 hertz refresh rate and vertical synchronisation (vsync) enabledYamagi Quake II is running at exactly 59.95 frames per second.
In comparison with the original client over 1.500 bugs were fixed. TheYamagi Quake II client is very well tested and stable. The dedicatedserver is able to run for weeks without a single restart. Last but notleast the code is fully 64 bit clean and highly portable.

Yamagi Quake II supports the following platforms:

FreeBSD
Linux
OpenBSD
Windows

Some additional platforms are supported by the community. Yamagi QuakeII works on them, but there may be bugs. The Yamagi Quake II developersmay not be able to fix these bugs due to the lack of required hardwareor software:

Haiku
Mac OS
NetBSD
Solaris
