+wmquake (Quake as a windowmaker dockapp)
-Notes:
+Run id Software's legendary Quake inside a dockapp! Play full on software
+Quake, mods, or let it play demos. Fixed by Eukos for newer systems.
-Be sure to start it with -nosound other wise it will segfault!
+You need at least the shareware data files from Quake, available on SBo
+as quake_shareware_data. If you have the full version, copy or link its
+.pak files into "/usr/share/games/quake/id1".
-Sound will not work because it uses a very old method. It MAY work on a system with
-OSS3 installed. The OSS version on SBo (OSS4) will NOT work with this game and neither
-will aoss for ALSA users.
+Notes:
-This SlackBuild moves the executable into, "/usr/share/games/quake/wmquake". This is to allow
-other Quake engines to be placed in here, for example: "/usr/share/games/quake/darkplaces".
+This program will not work correctly on x86_64! You can try it, maybe
+you'll have better results than I did, but don't send me a bug report
+about 64-bit unless it includes a patch.
-Your id1 folder (and mods) must go into, "/usr/share/games/quake/wmquake", for there is no home
-folder for data. You should have permissions to modify this folder with the games group.
+Sound will not work because it uses a very old method. It MAY work on
+a system with ALSA's OSS emulation enabled (/etc/rc.d/rc.alsa-oss). The
+OSS version on SBo (OSS4) will NOT work with this game and neither will
+aoss for ALSA users.
+
+If you're looking for wmquake's config file, it's stored in
+"~/.wmquake/id1/config.cfg".
