Alinea Computer is very pleased to be able to offer the version for AmigaOS 3 (68k) as a digital download in addition to the Quake 2 version for AmigaOS 4. Steffen Häuser is responsible for the porting and has implemented numerous features that have not yet been available for any Quake 2 port for 68k.

In addition to supporting the various Mission CDs and MODS, the
realised the playback of the soundtracks as OGG Vorbis (for Vampire V4
instead as AIFF files) and multiplayer/network gaming.

Please note that in order to run the 68k version of Quake 2, the
data files of the PC version are required. These can be downloaded via
Steam at a favourable price.

Free MODS and Mission CDs will be available in the next few days in the
Aminet will be available.

Here are all the features and system requirements at a glance:

Features

- 68040, 68060 and 68080 compiled version (during installation
selectable)
- MiniGL and Software Renderer

(requires the Gog or Steam version of Quake 2, where the Ogg Vorbis

System requirements

-Software: AmigaOS 3.x and the data files from Steam, Gog or CD version.
