@SiPlusTV If you are talking about for this video? If so it was either a Sound Blaster Live or it was one of those onboard Realtek sound cards. Yeah, actually I think it was the machine with the Realtek one. Realtek 97 or something.
@SiPlusTV Haven't tried the DOS version since I recorded the video. But I have tried with EZQuake source port since then and have had no problems launching it on my Realtek setup. Unless you are talking specifically Quake for MS Dos? I will say that I have had some odd issues with GLQuake though, but I think that might be due to the graphics card drivers.
@SiPlusTV Just to clarify things here: are you trying to run quake through the DOSBox emulator on a modern machine or running quake in MS DOS natively on a win95/98 machine? Because with the last one there, I am afraid I can't help you much with. If you are trying to run with the DOSBox emulator then it shows the correct variables at the startup screen (at least with the latest version) and you can show it again by typing in the "set blaster" (without the quotes) in the command line.
@SiPlusTV I would suggest that you maybe google dosbox and get on the official site for the DOSBox emulator if you are still stuck on this issue after my last reply. You could maybe get some help from the dudes on their forums.
I loved this game when I was a kid! I still have the game, but my dad bought it for me, and its the Shareware fold-out sleeve. We used to get the full version somehow, by using QuakeCrack or something. I wish I remembered how to unlock the full version :(
I looked up QuakeGL and its a zipped file. Can I unzip it with XP and email the files to my PC running win 98 then put them back into Quake on my other PC? Also thanks for answering my first question.
Does WinQuake make this game look better? Im planning on trying this on an older PC running windows 98, pentium 166, 4MB video card and 98 Megs of ram. I just dont know if it will run it or if it will run with my laptop with XP?
It should also be noted that there is better graphical ports than GLquake, I don't know what the names of these ports but you should ask someone on a gaming forum of some kind... maybe planetquake forums... dunno its been a while since I have been visiting any quake related sites
What sound card were you using?

dunno, never used WinQuake. Always used GLquake. Its a free downloadable patch and that will be guaranteed to work with XP.
This vid is recorded in dosbox btw and GLquake looks much better, its quake in openGL.
Beware that GLquake requires a shortcut to with some parameters to run in anything higher than 640x480
Artigkar40000000 2 years ago
oh and I believe it will work fine for that PC since the official reqs say this:
IBM PC and Compatibles
Pentium processor HIGHLY recommended, 486DX4/100 Minimally required
VGA Compatible Display or better
8MB RAM minimum, 16MB recommended (16 MB required for running under Win95)
CD-ROM drive Required
MS-DOS 5.0 or better or Windows 95 (does NOT run under Windows NT)
Hard Drive (30MB for Shareware, 80 MB for Registered)
