Razorback powers a small number of QuakeWorld servers based in New York, mostly sticking to vanilla maps while using some mods such as KTX to provide practical gameplay enhancements. The servers are currently in an experimental phase, so please drop some feedback on how they could be finetuned using one of the available contact outlets. Servers
Upcoming EventsNo upcoming events. Getting StartedThere are a number of ways to get started playing QuakeWorld on the Razorback servers. What exactly you'll need will depend on the hardware you're using and how you plan to play Quake. Get Quake!First and foremost, you need the game resources themselves. If you want the full version, you can either buy Quake from a digital storefront like Steam or GOG, or purchase a CD-ROM second-hand. You can also download the shareware version mirrored on Razorback. The self-extracting ZIP executable which runs in MS-DOS is not needed unless your computer does not have a ZIP extractor.
Running QuakeWorld on old hardwareAs my QuakeWorld servers contain a number of modern features, there is an offchance they may exhibit various incompatibilities with vanilla QuakeWorld, but recent refinements to the servers should have taken care of that. If you're not feeling confident, you can install WQWDOS. It does much the same thing and then some. Installing WQWDOS is as simple as plopping the executable into the same directory as your Quake installation. GLQW2.EXE doesn't work in Windows 95 as of now, and I don't know if it will later. Running QuakeWorld on new hardwareIf you're running a newer operating system, you can just load up ezQuake or nQuake. These source ports are optimized for online play via the QuakeWorld protocol but are also well suited for single player games. To get ezQuake running, you just extract the contents of the ZIP file and copy your PAK files into the ID1 directory. Connecting to RazorbackCurrently, the above servers are not listed on any global directory. To connect to one of Razorback's servers, press the ` key to bring up the console. You must specify a port number following the domain name and a colon to connect to the desired server. To connect to the FFA server "1999 Grand Cross", type connect razorback95.com:28501. |
