Comment 1 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2003-06-27 16:40:58 UTC
that is because you never created the pak0.pk3 symlink or copied said file to your 
baseq3 dir/ 
Comment 2 Graeme Humphries 2003-06-27 16:43:22 UTC
I'm only using it to play the mods, like Urban Terror. On other platforms, the retail copy of the game isn't required to just play the mods. Is there some reason why we can't play the mods standalone on Gentoo?
Comment 3 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2003-06-27 16:50:15 UTC
hmm interesting ... lets try a few things then :p

default.cfg

do this:
mkdir /opt/quake3/demota
mv [wherever you d/l-ed it to]/default.cfg /opt/quake3/demota

OK, I now get the following. It just sits there after printing the last line, with no discernable activity, except "q3ded" is chewing up all my CPU time:

heh whoops, q3ded is the dedicated server. My mistake. :P

However, urban terror still doesn't run. When I run quake3-q3ut2, here's what I get now:

quake3 is no longer in portage, but if you ever manage to figure this one out, i'd
like to hear it :)

i basically was able to get just as far as you and no further :/
