hey, at college the IT techies have decided to let us use the LAN to play fps during lunch Tongue i think they are playing also so its all good...at the moment though we only have halo1, in a format where we can just load it up off a pen drive and play, without any installations...

i was wondering if somebody could make a version of q3 that is possible to play without installing anything, just running it from a pen drive like this? and even greater would be the possibility to play e+ at college with my friends over lan, does anybody know how to do this? Laughing) if so they get one fricken HUGE bag of cookies Big grinLaughing out loudLaughing out loud

cheers,
ash

q3 doesnt need any installing at all Tongue

just copy the q3 directory to something and run it from there Tongue

I am proud of spreading a pirated Excessive Plus version and claim to be the original author, yay!

u can even run q3 from cd/dvd ;>

q3 needs to work only quake3.exe file and in baseq3 folder pak0.pk3 - pak8.pk3 nothing more.

But, if you don't properly install Q3, you miss on such cool and awesome features as the totally working uninstall icon AND STUFF.
