"Quake2: The Exodus" Beta version 0.19 Files: EXODUSBV19.EXE (The Mod) EXODUSBV19.TXT (This file) Author: J. Pranger Homepage: http://members.theglobe.com/exodusds/default.html e-mail: exodusds@theglobe.com Other works from author: The Lord Of The Shadow (Quake conversion) Thanks to: ID for Quake and Quake2, Ravensoftware for some Hexen2 textures, Epic MegaGames for the inspiration an the Ralos Face. Type Mod: New Models:Yes New Levels:Yes New Textures: No not in this package you will find them in the Exodus Texture pack!!!!! New Sounds: Some Quake sounds New Dll:No, Not yet Singelplayer: Yep 4 playabel levels. Multipayer: Yep no new dll so every normal server should work and a new player model included. Story: Check my home page for a up to date story Someting about this mod: The is the second BETA release v 0.19 it contains 4 new levels. This version is virus free and does NOT contain the Cheval virus. If you downloaded beta version 0.2 before 14-10-1998 then your pc may be infected with the Cheval virus even when your virus scanner doesn't detect the virus. The Cheval virus doesn't damage anything on your pc!!! It's only a Trojan (like back orifice and netbus). If you are not connected to the internet you don't have to worry about this virus. But if you are you should download Dr Solomons anti-virus and clean your pc with it. The virus will infect many exe files so you mayby have to reinstall your pc. I'm really sorry about this virus but it was only an excident (My whole pc was infected too!!). For information about how to remove this virus and for DR Solomons Anti-Virus go to my homepage. It still is a partail-conversion for Quake2. For futher releases, release info, story and some screenshots check out my home page. I don't know if i bring my next version out on ftp.crom.com so it is sensible to check my homepage twice a month!It is something like Unreal. Not all high tec but a mix. It work alright on my pc but I cannot garantee anything. If you want to see some screenshots you yust can go to my homepage. How to run: Yust extract the files in the quake2 directory (in most cases X:\quake2) and then run the file Exodus.Bat! You won't need the Exodus Texture package!!! Most of the times you get a directory like: "X:\quake2\exodus". If The .Bat file doesn't work you can put "+game exodus" after your normal quake2 line else you can use in quake2 the command "game exodus" If it says "game is write protected" you may need a higher version of quake2. You can download a upgrade om the idsoftware site. Requirments: Full version of Quake2 (v3.17 , 3.19 or higher) Still planning: -Better letter colors -New monster skins -Some levels -Some Deathmatch levels -Full Deathmatch support -New weapons -A new DLL Comming in 0.2 -You can easy upgrade this version without having to download everything aigain!!! New since v0.1 -level 4 finished -all levels retextured -level 1 very modified -all levels now have the help computer -help computer is chanced in a paper -new sounds -new better sky's -most errors now out the levels -new textures in a special texture pack -lesser file mess in the archive -works now also correct in software mode Disclaimer: I don't take any resposibility for whatever this progam may cause to your computer or anything else. It works on my computer so I don't excpect real problems with it. Sorry for my bad english. If you don't trust this version you'd better scan the sfx file before running it.
