Versions - QuakeWorld - Utilities - Bots - Sites |
Quake ... the number of add-on maps, utilities and patches available on the Net goes up every single day. This page of GWeb will, hopefully, help you wade through the stuff that's out there, and cut through to the bits you actually need.
The only files I'll post specific links for are the essential files and utilities that everyone might need. There are plenty of Web sites that do a much better job than I could tracking and reviewing, for example, custom maps - links to some of these sites are posted at the end of this page.
Where possible, I'm posting FTP links for the files on one of the fastest Walnut Creek mirrors that I've found in the UK (SunSITE Northern Europe).
The Three Main Versions of Quake
File | Date | Description | Info | Size |
glq1114.exe | 14.11.97 | GLQuake (0.97) - now supports chipset-specific installation. You'll need a 3D card based around either the PowerVR or 3Dfx chipset to run this - check out the PowerVR and 3Dfx pages for the OpenGL drivers. | ![]() |

wq100.zip | 21.03.97 | WinQuake (1.00). This is Quake designed to run under Windows95, using good ol' DirectX instead of running 'in a DOS box'. If you don't have a 3D card that supports GLQuake, this is the Quake for you. | None | 337Kb |
quake106.zip | 02.10.96 | Shareware Quake (1.06). The original. | ![]() |

QuakeWorld
If you're interested in Quake over the 'Net, check out the QuakeWorld and GameSpy websites. You'll find GameSpy under GWeb Applications.
Note also that these links are for the Windows95/NT files - if you want the Unix versions, head over to the QuakeWorld site.

Quake Utilities
File | Date | Description | Info | Size |
qon_110.zip | 15.03.98 | Full installation of QuakeOn (1.10, includes QTray 1.11). This is just about the best Quake front-end I've seen. Set up all the options you need to start Quake in one excellent application - and it runs Hexen II, too. Take the time to check out the QuakeOn page, hosted by Planet Quake. This is the first version which includes Quake II support. | ![]() |

The author of the WarBot has taken the project offline - he's renamed it the QuakeBot, and the final version is 1.1. The WarBot Page doesn't appear to be around any more, but for more information, check out Randar's Bot News...
