QuakeSpasm ______________________________________________________________________ Page last edited: June 2024. 1. About QuakeSpasm is a modern cross-platform Quake engine based on FitzQuake. It includes support for 64 bit CPUs and custom music playback, a new sound driver, some graphical niceities, and numerous bug-fixes and other improvements. Quakespasm utilizes SDL-1.2 or SDL2 frameworks, choose one which works best for you. SDL2 has nicer features, smoother mouse input and better support for newer operating systems, but no CD-ROM support. 2. Downloads - Project Downloads: http://quakespasm.sourceforge.net/download.htm - Latest code repository: https://sourceforge.net/p/quakespasm/quakespasm/ci/master/tree/ - Github mirror: https://github.com/sezero/quakespasm 3. Hints Visit the FitzQuake homepage <https://celephais.net/fitzquake/> for a full run-down of the engine's commands and variables. - To disable some changes, use "quakespasm -fitz" - Quakespasm's custom data is stored in "quakespasm.pak". Install this file alongside your id1 directory to enable the custom console background and other minor features. - For different sound backend drivers use : "SDL_AUDIODRIVER=DRIVER ./quakespasm" where DRIVER may be alsa, dsp, pulse, esd ... - Shift+Escape draws the Console. - From the console, use UP to browse the command line history and TAB to autocomplete command and map names. - There is currently no CD Music volume support and SDL2 doesn't support CD audio. cd_sdl.c needs replacing with cd_linux.c, cd_bsd.c etc.. - In windows, alternative CD drives are accessible by "quakespasm -cddev F" (for example) - Quakespasm allows loading new games (mods) on the fly with "game GAMENAME {-quoth/hipnotic/rogue}" - Use "quakespasm -condebug" to save console log to "qconsole.log". SDL2 builds no longer generate stdout.txt/stderr.txt. Music Playback: Quakespasm can play various external music formats, including MP3, OGG and FLAC. - Tracks should be named like "track02.ogg", "track03.ogg" ... (there is no track01) and placed into "Quake/id1/music". - Unix users may need some extra libraries installed: "libmad" or "libmpg123" for MP3, and "libogg" and "libvorbis" for OGG. - Use the "-noextmusic" option to disable this feature. - As of 0.90.0, music is played back at 44100 Hz by default with no need to adjust "-sndspeed". - See Quakespasm-Music.txt for more details. Controller Support: The SDL2 variant of Quakespasm supports Xbox 360 style game controllers. The default configuration uses the left analog stick for movement and the right for looking. If your controller doesn't work you can try placing this file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gabomdq/SDL_GameControllerDB/master/gamecontrollerdb.txt in your Quake directory, it is a community-maintained database that adds support for more controllers to SDL2. Controller Support - Cvars: - joy_deadzone_look - Fraction of look stick travel to be deadzone, between 0 and 1. Default is 0.175. - joy_deadzone_move - Same as above, but for the move stick. Default is 0.175. - joy_deadzone_trigger - Fraction of trigger range required to register a button press on the analog triggers, between 0 and 1. Default 0.2. - joy_outer_threshold_look - Outer deadzone for the look stick, between 0 and 1. Default 0.02. - joy_outer_threshold_move - Outer deadzone for the move stick, between 0 and 1. Default 0.02. - joy_sensitivity_yaw/pitch - Max angular speed in degrees/second when looking. Defaults are 240 for yaw (turning left/right) and 130 for pitch (up/down). - joy_exponent - For the look stick, the stick displacement (between 0 and 1) is raised to this power. Default is 2. A value of 1 would give a linear relationship between stick displacement and fraction of the maximum angular speed. - joy_exponent_move - Same as joy_exponent but for the move stick. Default is 2. - joy_invert - Set to 1 to invert the vertical axis of the look stick. - joy_swapmovelook - Set to 1 to swap the left and right analog stick functions. Default is 0, move on the left stick, look on the right stick. - joy_enable - Set to 0 to disable controller support. Default is 1. Controller Support - Buttons: Some of the controller buttons are hardcoded to allow navigating the menu: - Back - alias for TAB - Start - alias for ESC - DPad, analog sticks - mapped to arrow keys - A Button - alias for ENTER in menus - B Button - alias for ESC in menus These buttons can be bound normally: - LTRIGGER - Left trigger - RTRIGGER - Right trigger - LSHOULDER - Left shoulder button - RSHOULDER - Right shoulder button - LTHUMB - Clicking the left thumbstick - RTHUMB - Clicking the right thumbstick - ABUTTON - BBUTTON - XBUTTON - YBUTTON quakespasm.pak contains a default.cfg which has been updated to give some default bindings. L/R shoulder buttons are bound to weapon switching, and L/R triggers are jump and attack. The controller support started as Jeremiah Sypult's implementation in Quakespasm-Rift, and also uses ideas/code from LordHavoc's DarkPlaces. 4. Compiling and Installation See the Downloads section to get the sourcecode, then below for platform specific instructions. Quakespasm can also be built with the cross-platform Codeblocks. Quakespasm's (optional) custom data is now stored in the file quakespasm.pak. This file should be placed alongside your quakespasm binary and id1 directory. Compiling for Linux/Unix: After extracting the source tarball, "cd Quake" and edit the Makefile for music options. Streaming music playback requires "libmad" or "libmpg123" for MP3, and "libogg" and "libvorbis" for OGG files. Then type "make" to compile the program, and copy the "quakespasm" binary (and "quakespasm.pak") to your Quake game directory. Compile time options include - make DO_USERDIRS=1 to include user directories support - make DEBUG=1 for debugging - make SDL_CONFIG=/PATH/TO/sdl-config for unusual SDL installations - make USE_SDL2=1 to compile against SDL2 instead of SDL-1.2 Compiling for Windows: QuakeSpasm developers cross-compile windows binaries using MinGW-w64 <http://mingw-w64.sf.net> and MinGW <https://mingw.osdn.io>. The project can also be built using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and newer versions. Compiling for Mac OS X: A Quakespasm App (including program launcher and update framework) can be made using the Xcode template found in the MacOSX directory. Alternatively, have a look at Makefile.darwin for more instructions on building from a console. Quake '2021 re-release': QuakeSpasm 0.94 has support for playing the 2021 re-release content: Copy the quakespasm binary to your rerelease installation and run as you normally do. 5.

Set to 2, 3, or 4 to render the view at 1/2, 1/3, or 1/4 resolution. - New "r_viewmodel_quake" cvar. Set to 1 for WinQuake gun position (from MarkV). - New "find" / "apropos" command, searches for commands/cvar names for the given substring (from Spike). - New "randmap" command for loading a random map. - New "gl_cshiftpercent_contents", "gl_cshiftpercent_damage", "gl_cshiftpercent_bonus", "gl_cshiftpercent_powerup" cvars for tuning the strength of specic view blends. - GL2 renderer: use a GLSL shader for world faces. Fixes reports of integrated+discrete GPU laptops having inconsistent fog rendering. - Fix macOS startup delay (avoid calling gethostbyname() for ".local" hostnames). - Fix memory corruption in PF_lightstyle with out of bounds lightstyles. - Fix crash in BoundPoly with polygons extending beyond +/-9999. - Fix QS window to stay on the current monitor when changing video modes (SDL2 only). - Fix possible freeze in SV_TouchLinks regardless of what QC does in the touch function. - Fix for maps with empty strings for vector keys (e.g. "origin"); don't read uninitialized memory. - Support for Open Watcom compiler. - Update the third-party libraries.

Changes in 0.92.0: - SDL2 Game Controller support. - Contrast support with new "contrast" cvar, behaving the same as MarkV. It may be a useful alternative to the existing gamma control for laptops in a bright environment, etc. Raising contrast gives less of a gray/washed out look than raising gamma, but at a disadvantage: colors near white get clipped to white. - RMQ protocol (999) support, adapted from RMQEngine. - New "-protocol x" command line option. Accepted values for 'x' are 15 (NetQuake), 666 (FitzQuake, default), and 999 (RMQ). - New "setpos" console command. - New "vid_borderless" cvar for getting a borderless window. - Increased MAX_MAP_LEAFS from 65535 to 70000 and MAX_LIGHTMAPS from 256 to 512 in order to handle the oms3 map pack. - Server edicts are now allocated using malloc instead of allocating on the hunk. - gl_clear now defaults to 1. - Fix items falling out of the world on oms3.bsp on SSE builds. - Worked around an OSX 10.6 driver bug when using FSAA, which was leading to an unplayable HOM effect on the rest of the screen. - Fix wrong trace endpoint from the tracepos console command. - Updated some of the third-party libraries. Other fixes/clean-ups. Changes in 0.91.0: Bugfixes: - Fix unwanted fog mode change upon video restart. - Work around Intel 855 bug in status bar drawing with "r_oldwater 0" and "scr_sbaralpha 0". - Fix an obscure GLSL bug where changing gamma would result in the screen turning to noise. - Fix GLSL gamma causing the tiled screen border to turn white when "sizedown" is used. - Fix an alias model VBO renderer bug where a model not precached during map start wouldn't be drawn. - Fix the order of OpenGL context creation and window creation in SDL2 video. - Fix a calling convention issue in windows DPI awareness function pointers. - Fix a random texture recoloring after video mode change. - Fix a liquid turning to garbage after several video mode changes and "r_oldwater 0". - Fix a wrong alpha-sorting bug introduced in 0.90.1. - Fix "flush" command not reloading mdl's from disk (bug introduced in 0.90.1). - Prevent a possible buffer overflow in Cbuf_Execute (old Q1/Q2 bug). - Prevent a possible vulnerability in MSG_ReadString (old Q1/Q2 bug). Visual improvements: - New cvars r_lavaalpha, r_slimealpha, r_telealpha for fine-tuning specific liquid opacities (from DirectQ/RMQEngine, non-archived, default to 0), and new worldspawn keys _wateralpha, _lavaalpha, _slimealpha, _telealpha, _skyfog (unique to Quakespasm, similar to the behaviour of the "fog" worldspawn key). - GLSL gamma is now supported on older hardware without NPOT extension. Interface improvements: - New r_pos command to show player position. - NaN detection in traceline with "developer 1" set now warns instead of errors. Code cleanup / Other: - Update third-party libraries. Raised limits: - Default max_edicts 8192 (was 2048) and no longer saved to config.cfg. - Default heapsize 256 MB (was 64 MB). - Default zone 4 MB (was 384 KB). - Raised MAX_SFX to 1024 (was 512). Changes in 0.90.1: Bugfixes: - Fix dynamic light artifact where changing lightmap are rendered one frame late (bug introduced in 0.90.0). - Fix texture memory leak when changing video modes with SDL2. - Fix a rare incorrect mdl lighting on 64-bit builds. (details here: https://forums.insideqc.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5620) - Fix fullbrights turning black after "kill" command (bug introduced in 0.90.0). - Clear all fog values on map change to prevent colored fog carrying over to jam3_tronyn.bsp. - Allow loading saves with } character in quoted strings, fixes issue with retrojam1_skacky.bsp. - Fix viewmodel not lerping on extended-limit maps. - Fix crash on out-of-bounds skin number. Performance: - Use multithreaded OpenGL on OS X for better performance. - New, faster mdl renderer using GLSL. Disable with "-noglslalias". Visual improvements: - New gamma correction implementation using GLSL. Fixes all known gamma issues (affecting the full display, persisting after quitting, or darkening the screen on OS X). Disable with "-noglslgamma". - Use high-quality water by default (r_oldwater 0). - Shadows use stencil buffer to avoid overlapping artifacts (from MarkV.) - r_noshadow_list cvar added (from MarkV.) Interface improvements: - Support pausing demo playback with the "pause" command. - Autocompletion for "game", "record", "playdemo". - Experimental windowed fullscreen mode available with vid_desktopfullscreen 1 (only in SDL2 builds, takes effect upon entering fullscreen mode the next time.) - Silence "exceeded standard limit" messages unless developer cvar is >= 1. - Some spam moved from developer 1 to 2: "can't find tga/lit/ent", "trying to load ent", "bad chunk length", "meshing", "PR_AlocStringSlots: realloc'ing" Code cleanup: - Clean up IDE project files to build on fresh systems. - Update 3rd-party libraries. Changes in 0.90.0: - Fix issues on Windows systems with DPI scaling. - Unix/Mac user directories support. Disabled by default, 'make DO_USERDIRS=1' to enable it. - SDL2 support. Disabled by default, 'make USE_SDL2=1' to enable it. - Revised keyboard input code. - Revised/improved the 'game' command, i.e. on-the-fly mod changing. It now accepts an optional second argument for mission packs or quoth support i.e. -hipnotic, -rogue, or -quoth. For example, for WarpSpasm: "game warp -quoth" - Command line: "-game {quoth/hipnotic/rogue}" is now treated the same as -quoth, -hipnotic, or -rogue. - Console speed now resolution-independent. - Disabled gl_zfix, which caused glitches and is undesirable for new maps. Replacement .ent files to fix z-fighting for several id1 maps added to quakespasm.pak. - PF_VarString buffer bumped to 1024, avoids truncated centerprints from the 'In The Shadows' mod. - Support for opengl non-power-of-two-textures extension (disable with command line: "-notexturenpot".) - Support for OpenGL vertex buffer objects (VBO, OpenGL 1.5 or newer) for world and brush models (disable with command line: "-novbo".) - Antialiasing (FSAA) support (command line: -fsaa x, where x can be 0, 2, 4, 8). - Fence textures support. - Dynamic light speedup. Speedup loading of tga and pcx external images. - Brush model drawing speedup. - Support for BSP2 and 2PSB map formats. - Support for Opus, FLAC, and tracker music (S3M, IT, UMX, etc.), as compile-time options. - Music and sfx now mixed at 44100 Hz to avoid downsampling music. Low-pass filter applied to the sfx if -sndspeed is 11025 (the default), to preserve the same sound quality as 0.85.9. New -mixspeed option sets the rate for mixing sfx and music, and output to the OS (default 44100), setting it to 11025 reverts to 0.85.9 behaviour. New snd_filterquality cvar, value can be between 1 (emulate OS X resampler) and 5 (emulate Windows resampler), controls the sound of the low-pass filter. - Better Hor+ field of view (FOV) scaling behavior. - Better cross-map demo playback support. - Fix screenshots when screen width isn't a multiple of 4. - Fix a lighting glitch due to floating point precision. - Fix a looping sounds glitch. - Fix a vulnerability in file extension handling. Tighten path handling safety. - Initialize opengl with 24-bit depth buffer at 32 bpp. - Reset all models upon gamedir changes. (Fixes failures with mods using custom content.) - Fix broken behavior upon gamedir changes if -basedir is specified on the command line. - NET_MAXMESSAGE and MAX_MSGLEN limits bumped to 64000. - MAX_EFRAGS bumped to 4096, and MAX_CHANNELS to 1024. - MAX_ENT_LEAFS bumped from 16 to 32 to work around disappearing or flickering brush models in some situations. Also, if an entity is visible from MAX_ENT_LEAFS or more leafs, we now always send it to the client. - Fix cvar cycle command not working sometimes. - Host_Error upon missing models. (Prevents segmentation faults.) - Change sv_aim default value to 1 (i.e. turn off autoaim) - Add 'prev' and 'next' keywords to the 'cd' command. - Work around a linux cdrom issue (playback might not start for a while after a stop). - Quakespasm content customization moved from engine-embedded into a new optional quakespasm.pak file. - Version bumped to 0.90.0 (because Quakespasm has a decent life of it's own) - Other fixes and clean-ups. Changes in 0.85.9: - Fixes for several undefined behaviors in C code (gcc-4.8 support.) - Implemented Hor+ style field of view (FOV) scaling, useful for widescreen resolutions. Configured by new cvar fov_adapt: set it to 1 and your fov will be scaled automatically according to the resolution. Enabled by default. - Adjusted string buffers for PR_ValueString and friends to fix crashes with excessively long global strings seen in some rude mods. - Toned down warning messages from PF_VarString() a bit. - Fixed Fitzquake's map existence check in changelevel (used to leak file handles which would end up in a Sys_Error() due to consuming all free handles if many maps reside not in pak files.) - Fixes/cleanups in chat mode handling. Client no longer gets stuck in chat mode upon disconnect. - Mouse grab/key_dest fixes and key cleanups. - The "speedkey" now acts as "slowkey" when "always run" is on. - Support for demo recording after connection to server. (thanks to Baker for a patch) - Corner case fixes in COM_Parse() for quoted strings and support for C-style /*..*/ comments. - Changed lightmaps to GL_RGBA instead of GL_RGB. - Better parse for opengl extensions list (from quakeforge.) - Vsync saving/loading fixes. - Fixed pointfile loading. - Multiple cleanups in gl_vidsdl.c. - Opus music decoding support (as an optional patch only.) - Several other minor fixes/cleanups.

Packet Overflows can happen in the end fight on map https://www.slipseer.com/index.php?resources/i-no-longer-fear-the-ranger-guarding-my-heel.222/
Here's a test save, just go crazy gibing everything and you'll get packet overflows.
Type quad in the console to give yourself quad for easy testing.
This doesn't happen in Ironwail.
It doesn't happen in vkQuake either, but vkQuake uses FTE999 protocol.
Not sure if this is the desired action, but when I return to a game after a minimize or alt-tab all the sounds that occurred since all play at once. This is even more noticeable in multiplayer where many diff sounds will occur. Can we mute all sounds during this time?
https://github.com/sezero/quakespasm/blob/master/Quake/in_sdl.c#L1012
There was some recent discussion about increasing the instruction limit in QS and Ironwail.
I figured I'd get the ball rolling.
Presumably the first is meant to be 0.94.3
The Doom community loves its pistol starts and (and so do I). There's a flag many Doom source ports support : "-pistolstart". Do you think Quake could make with a "-shotgunstart"? I suppose it could reset your inventory upon level transitions but keep your runes.
In latest QS on Mac if you are in windowed mode and you move your mouse over the out of focus QS window, the game receives the input despite the application being out of focus.
A few map developers forgot to name textures in their maps and therefore they do not currently load.
The most popular map where this happens is aerowalk, which has 3 unnamed textures.
unnamed16
unnamed17
unnamed10
Other popular maps I've discovered with unnamed textures: cmt4, ctf5
FTE fix in Mod_LoadTextures (gl_model.c)
if (!tx->name[0])
{
q_snprintf(tx->name, sizeof(tx->name), "unnamed%d", i);
Con_DPrintf("Warning: unnamed texture in %s, renaming to %s\n", loadmodel->name, tx->name);
}
Thank you for all of the great work in supporting localization!
Currently, QuakeSpasm supports loading QuakeEX.kpf
from the basedir
, or on Linux from the userdir
as well. It would be nice if support was added to read from the gamedir
for the players who use old release Quake and only want to load the .kpf
when playing mg1
or a mod that specifically needs it.
When playing Quake Enhanced, Scourge of Armagon, map hip2m4
the end gate of the level has checkered/missing texture, as seen on the screenshot. My hipnotic

md5sum is a9e2a6e544da7f506f6b65b0661e89a9
, I use GOG purchase of Quake Enhanced.
Version: 0.94.1
Platform: Arch Linux 5.13.12
I was trying to figure out why localization was working when I first launched the game, but failed on subsequent attempts. Turns out I happened to be in my steamapps/common/Quake/rerelease
directory in order to pull the mg1
directory into ~/.quakespasm
.
As it happens, the file QuakeEX.kpf
needs to be in the current working directory in order for localization to function properly. I think it would be more convenient if the file were searched for from the engine folder, so that users could launch the game from any directory.
There is some issue with vertically long-distance moving platforms in the last release.
You get damage from noting while platform moving up.
On vkquake and previous version of QS platform moves without the problem.
You can test it on https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/prisonofhope.html map and my save.

Is it possible to bring them to the limit of very large values or cancel them altogether?
The project is so huge that you need to increase the limits on Brushes to 200 thousand brushes on one card.
increasing the allocated memory in order to use the maximum that can be shoved into the card at such limits.
Lava should always be fullbright because the lava texture is 100% made of fullbright colors. But the lightmaps are showing up on lava surfaces because the engine is not applying fullbright colors to liquid surfaces, as shown in this YouTube video.
Audio is not initialized on WIndows if 'Intel display audio' is the only available audio device AND a modeset is issued.
This is a known issue with Intel Drivers (see Intel document ).
Sound Initlalisation
Coundn't opem SDL audio: WASAPI can't find requested audio endpoint: Element not found.
I could fix this by simply retrying again 2 seconds later.
Unfortunately audio device is also lost later in the game when switching to another video resolution or switching from vid_fullscreen 0 <-> 1.
What is needed is some kind of snd_restart command and ideally a check if the audio device is available and if not, an automatic restart of the audio device.
the same issue can be observed with vkQuake, Ironwail and probably with other forks.
Why had that worked for me all this years? I had a headphone connected to the system ( realtek HD audio) and Quakespasm would find the headphone, initialize audio and when Intel Display Audio re-apperared, SDL/ WASAPI would switch back to the default audio device!
If you're playing on MacOS in windowed mode with the game paused (menu or console open) so the mouse is visible, and then you unpause the game while the mouse is outside of the game window, then your mouse will disappear and you can look around as normal, but the next time you click, the game will lose focus. This also happens if you cmd-tab to an unpaused game while your mouse isn't over where the game window is. It seems the game isn't completely capturing the mouse properly.
You can even trigger this issue even just by pausing and unpausing depending on where your cursor appears: the mouse usually appears over the game window when you open a menu, but if you look down and to the right or left and then pause, the mouse may reappear beyond the rounded corner of the window and then trigger this issue when you unpause.
The issue is weirder if you unpause the game while it's over the game window's titlebar or over the MacOS system menu. The mouse can become frozen or invisible even after you pause the game again, staying broken until you close the game.
This issue exists in QuakeSpasm-Spiked and vkQuake too but worse. Both of those ports make the window resizable and it seems like this issue interacts badly with that feature: if you unpause the game with your mouse at the window border -- which can easily happen frequently, because if you last looked far to the left or right when you open the escape menu, the mouse will be positioned exactly on the window border -- then the game will actually freeze whenever you're holding the mouse down until you let go of it, and the issue doesn't go away until you pause the game again and unpause with the mouse not at the window border.
Hey, I love this port! It runs way better than Darkplaces on my Linux box, doesn't bloat my game with extra "effects" (I especially hate the way model interp works in darkplaces because the nailgun fires weirdly and you can see a nail travel between both barrels), it's nearly perfect for me.
I do however feel it is a tad rough around the edges in some ways.
I have a few suggestions for some more modern QoL features (which should all be optional) to make it slightly more playable in lieu of what is considered to be core features of modern games. Please understand I grew up largely with modern games and this has been a throwback for me, and seeing some core features not available is really difficult to get used to.
The main pain point is saving, which has been automated in some very nice ways in more modern games, in ways I feel aren't detrimental to the experience and are actually quite positive.
I understand that one of the goals of this port is authenticity, without adding too many bloated features. However, I feel that taking the good while fixing the bad is a good way to improve something without fundamentally changing it.
Anyway, some saving suggestions:
Some other suggestions:
Also, I know they are pretty terrible, but does this port have support for any of the official expansions at all?
Lastly, completely unrelated, does anyone know a good source port for Hexen 2? I intend to play that after this. I have found a few in the past but they all seemed to be very feature bloated or broken.
Key Details
Tested on Quakespasm, vkQuake, and Ironwail; all exhibit the same issue:
When I have my headphones plugged into any USB port on my computer, I do not get any audio from the game running in the aforementioned source ports. Additionally, this bug seems to prevent the game from shutting down as well - when attempting to quit the game from the main menu or the console, the window just hangs there and never disappears; I have to kill it's process from the terminal for it to go away.
When switching my default audio device to something other than the USB headset audio, everything works as expected. Weirdly this seems to only happen on my headphones, as I recall using other USB audio devices (DACs, etc) without any issue on this same PC. I've tried swapping different USB cables and ports to rule out faulty hardware, but the issue persists.
Audio from my headphones works fine everywhere else too, including other games which use SDL as well (again, not sure if this is relevant or not, possibly related to #23 ?)
E.g. ad_sepulcher from AD1.7 or telefragged from Rubicon Rumble Pack. See:

In the start level (using the rerelease basedir), if you look at the water before episode 4, you can see that specific sections of the bottom surface incorrectly render over specific sections of the top surface. (Specifically, lower surface's far-left corner renders over any part of the upper surface, and the rest of the lower surface's left two-thirds renders over everything in the upper surface except for a section on the near-left.)
Related: Novum/vkQuake#656. I thought this was vkQuake specific at first but guess not. This issue does show up slightly differently between the two ports though.
Using current git build.
Issue happens when using the grappling hook from Re:Mobilize https://www.slipseer.com/index.php?resources/re-mobilize.239/

I've written a potential fix that uses the netinet/in.h
header to make an exception if the reply comes from localhost, which is defined as 127.0.0.1
in the header. This solves the issue on my system.
Edit: There's another potential fix here that checks both the send and read addresses. This fix also allows the engine to check the ports after confirming that both addresses are localhost, which is necessary (see the log).
And also a third potential fix that doesn't fiddle with the low level stuff, but is less accurate than the second one (see the comments).
The map in the video is eldersx from The SpiritWorld https://www.slipseer.com/index.php?resources/the-spiritworld.208/
This doesn't happen with Ironwail or vkQuake.
This issue happens with the current git build. It does not happen with 95.1 release.
Also the issue is not present with -noglsl
Maybe it was caused from the "blending lights" fix?
Sometimes I leave my CAPS on by accident, this leads to an issue with the game command. For example:
I'm trying to load Arcane Dimensions, which lives in a subdirectory called ad
in my basedir.
GAME AD
.com_gamedir
to <path_to>/AD
, and doesn't load the ad
subdirectory.game ad
.This leads to the following (the difference between lower- and uppercase is very subtle with the default charset):
This happens because I'm running QuakeSpasm on Linux, and the filesystem utils are case sensitive.
To summarize: the issue is that the engine uses case sensitivity for loading game directories, but doesn't do the same for comparing a requested gamedir with the current com_gamedir
.
I wrote a quick fix that solves the issue. However, I'm also considering the fact that QuakeSpasm aims for portability and that this change may annoy users that run it on an OS for which the filesystem utils are not entirely case sensitive (like Windows if I remember correctly).
To address that, I wrote another potential fix, however I feel like a platform dependent solution is out of place in common.c
.
I'd like to hear what the maintainers think about this, if they're interested in fixing the issue.
Hi,
I played Quake1 with Quakespasm several years ago on Windows and it was pretty easy to install and run the game.
I have quake1 .pak files and now I want to install the latest quakespasm and play the game on Linux natively without Wine.
There is a Linux package of quakespasm
but, honestly, I have no idea how to compile or even run the engine with the game.
I was not able to find any required information on this in the archive. Quakespasm.txt
says See the Downloads section to get the sourcecode, then below for platform specific instructions.
but there is no information on how to compile and run it under the Downloads section. There is also not much information on the internet on how to do it.
vkQuake does a better job on this - there is a clear instruction in their repo. Nevertheless, I am not sure how much it is compatible with mods like Quakespasm .
When I start the game with
quakespasm -game mg1 +map horde1
I get a countdown 3, 2, 1, and then $qc_horde_fight
, at least this string seems to be missing/broken.
The given crash is very rare, but it happened from time to time on different maps/mods. Recently, I managed to reproduce a bit more reliably.
The crash occurs consistently at the beginning of Ranger Dynamics level, rm_dynamics
, from Re:Mobilize. Here is a stripped down version of the mod rm1.0-stripped.zip with saved game included.
Steps to reproduce
-nosound
command line optionmap rm_dynamics
, and save the game right after thatCallstack

Entity class was monster_army
, but sometimes it crashes on spark
as well.
Optimization and platform have no effect on it, reproduced with 64-bit Intel macOS and with 32-bit VS2022 debug builds.
Removal of this srand()
call seems to make its reproduction more deterministic.
Screen flashes get broken on some maps.
The map in the video is ctsj2_bal from Coppertone Summer Jam 2 pack https://www.quaddicted.com/filebase/ctsj2_1.2.zip
It happens in other maps as well, strange bug.
This also happens in QSS, but it doesn't happen in Ironwail or vkQuake.

I cranked gamma/contrast to max to see it better.

Hi there. @ericwa
Is there any hope that Quakespasm gets GLES support?
It would be specially interesting for X-less, running Quakespasm without an X server.
Nowadays, SDL2 runs perfectly on KMSDRM thanks to it's KMSDRM backend, no X is needed. But for that, only GLES is supported in some platforms like the Raspberry Pi (using the standard KMS/DRM graphics stack, NOT the old and deprecated Broadcom stuff).
I tested with all other non-qs engines and QS appears to be the only engine that deletes the console notification when a center print occurs. See video below.
The scenario is that I'm using QuakeSpasm on Linux and have XKBOPTIONS="ctrl:nocaps" with the intention of using CAPS LOCK as CTRL. Most apps see the CAPS LOCK as a CTRL key, but QuakeSpasm does not. Other games have this issue as well -- seeing CAPS LOCK as CAPS LOCK instead of CTRL -- but those games allow binding CAPS LOCK.
Support for binding CAPS LOCK was added to vkQuake.
Please see Novum/vkQuake@8bfb38e
Please consider making quakespasm available on flathub.org
Currently there is no good way to install Quakespasm on Fedora.
All major QS forks seem to be getting lit water support, enabled by compiling a map using ericw tools with the -splitturb option enabled in qbsp.
The whole Quake community feel this is a groundbreaking feature, as it increases immersion by a lot when there are liquids in the scene.
How difficult would it be to backport it to QS?
This image shows a scene with two lights in Ironwail (it looks the same in vkQuake, and similar in the KEX remaster engine). One light is not animated (style 0) and the other is set to pulse slowly (style 2). The result is that the animated light appears to be blended correctly with the static light, leading to a very bright light near the lava surface.
However, in Quakespasm, the blend results in a strange green colour.
This seems to be most noticable with orange lights (lava) and grey textures. I didn't notice the problem nearly as much if I changed the texture to something brighter or more saturated. I could reduce the green tint in Quakespasm by lowering the brightness of the lights significantly, but it negatively affected the visuals in other engines.
There was some discussion about the issue in the Quake Mapping discord, and Pyro posted this relevant link.
You can get the test map here.
outputted .ent file for e1m1, e1m2, e1m4, e2m2, e2m3, e2m7 (using ericw-tools-v0.18.1-90-g03ed069-win64) does not load while 95%+ of all other .ents do
tested in 0.94.3
In spite of using correct checksums for .ent files in SoA and DoE (e.g. [email protected] for Kex version of HIP1M1 or [email protected] for Kex version of R1M1), definitions are not loaded. It also does not work after removing checksum part completely (e.g. h1m1.ent).
Can be easily checked by altering map title in .ent file and loading it with the map afterwards. ID1 seems to work as intended. Same issue in Quakespasm-Spiked x64 v2021-10-06.
Tested with: Quakespasm 0.94.1 (x64)
There is a potential write outside of stack buffer inside PR_ValueString()
function.
To reproduce, load Oozing Blasphemy with Arcane Dimensions 1.81, and do edicts
in console.
It may crash at the following line
Line 321 in 33085c5
Line 312 in 33085c5
Should it allocate a temporary buffer on the heap if stack one is too small?
Or, is it better to just use q_snprintf()
to output only value's part?

it seems that quakespasm and ironwail are issuing a modeset even when it's not needed.
A modeset occurs if game resolution and framerate matches the desktop settings. vkQuake seem to issue a modeset only if resolution or framerate differ from desktop settings.
with vid_fullscreen 0 a modeset is called as well if game resolution matched the desktop resolution.
With 'Intel Display Audio' devices this leads to uninitialized/lost audio.
Hello again!
You may remember me from making a similar request for your Hexen II source port - I'm again running into trouble getting Quakespasm to run on my Steam Deck, specifically because the Deck's operating system does not ship with libopusfile
installed which the binary Quakespasm builds require.
As mentioned in the HoT request, adding system libraries to SteamOS is a major pain in the neck - specifically as it's an immutable distro with a read-only root partition; this can be overridden but system updates will wipe any changes to system packages. And as with Hammer of Thyrion, for this reason I've put together a Flatpak build for Quakespasm which will run out of the box on the Deck and any other Flatpak-enabled Linux system and is easy to keep up to date as Flathub will take care of building updated versions including dependencies and the end-user Flatpak installation will transparently check for updated versions on a regular basis.
The build I've put together is a mostly default Quakespasm build with the exception of building SDL2 instead of 1.2 (as this is the default SDL runtime for Flatpak) and enabling FLAC, Opus and XMP (which I could easily switch to Mikmod if you'd prefer this) for maximum audio support.
As with Hammer of Thyrion, I'll be happy to take care of maintenance of these builds and reproducing any issues users report with the Flatpak builds; and as with HoT Flathub's submission requirements need me to ask for permission from you to distribute Quakespasm this way - is this okay with you?
The default gl_farclip of 16384 needs to be increased for bigger maps.
Map in image is ej3_aesop from https://www.slipseer.com/index.php?resources/explore-jam-3.228/
Increasing it to 65536 should probably be good enough.
Happens with both r_oldwater 0 and 1
For reference this doesn't happen in Ironwail or vkQuake.
Unfortunately with HD textures, levels can take a long time to reload when you die or load a quicksave or regular save.
It would be great if this didn't reload the textures when it can identify that you're on the same level as you were before.
