A port of the original Quake engine to the Nintendo Wii, compiled using devkitPPC / libogc.
- Release 3
Q1Rev, as a standalone application, has been deprecated. It is now part of Quake Rev PAK.
The source code comes from Q1DS (an initial attempt to port the engine to the Nintendo DS), which, in turn, comes from the original winquake, one of the projects that can be obtained at ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/source/q1source.zip .
The engine is (almost) feature-complete, it plays the game at 30fps with no hiccups or any similar problems. It can also be used as a client for Internet-based gameplay, as a "unmodified" NetQuake client.
The only missing functionality is the ability to play the original CD soundtrack, to be implemented (if everything goes right) on a further release.
New features in this release:
- Classic Controller can now be used to play; controls are similar to those in use by the Gamecube Controller.
- Pressing [A] to aim is now optional; a Menu Option was provided for such effect.
- Bug fixes in the way the Nunchuk controller was handled, causing problems when moving on water.
The project is being hosted at http://code.google.com/p/qrevpak .
Any comments about the engine are welcome to heribertod@gmail.com.
