Version:      3.04
Architecture: m68k-amigaos >= 3.1.0
Distribution: Aminet

Overview:

Amiga 68K port based on WinQuake, Fitzquake and qbism. 


Requirements:

1) An RTG Amiga.
2) Workbench must be using a 32-bit pixel format screen mode.
3) PiStorm 4.
4) AHI installed and configured.
5) Music packs for digital music playback.
6) The original game or demo.


There are a few Tooltypes to play with:

hunksize: How much hunk memory to allocate
zone: How much zone memory to allocate
nosound: Disable sound
nocdaudio: Disable music
rougue: Use the offical Quake TC
hipnotic: Use the offical Quake TC
game: Use the specified TC


There are a few configuration options to play with:

The maximum number of particles used 'r_maxparticles'.
MIP scaling is controlled using 'd_mipscale' and 'd_mipcap'.
The maximum number of dynamic lights used 'cl_maxdlights'.
Control of the dynamic lighting 'r_lightsaturation', 'cl_enemy_dlights'
and 'cl_enemy_projectile_dlights'.
Control the texture blending with 'sw_texturesmooth'.


Performance Considerations:

1) Fast File System is actually not, use PFS3 instead.
2) Use v4.18 of AHI as the later versions are too slow.


Limitations:

1) No network multiplayer support.
2) No joystick support.
3) No 3D hardware support (old school baby).
