Slipgate Classic Beta 0.2 is out! We've rebuilt the full first episode of Quake on the Half-Life engine, and now you can play it with friends. Highlights: - All of Quake Episode 1, start map through E1M8, rebuilt on GoldSrc with reworked Quake-dark lighting - New Game mode setting: Single player, Co-op and Deathmatch, fully separate - New co-op: start together, exit together, and carry weapons, ammo, armor and health between maps like Quake - New bots for co-op and deathmatch, with names, models and colors that stick between maps and skill from Easy to Nightmare - Quake monsters chase, face and attack at Quake speeds, and only appear on Quake's skill levels - Each level has its own Nine Inch Nails Quake soundtrack track, remastered with no crackle - Quake's original sounds for doors, lifts, teleporters, water and every monster - Mouse fixed: raw mouse look works like regular Half-Life - In-game menu (F by default) now has a working cursor, and closing it no longer fires your weapon - LEVEL COMPLETE stats card, frags for monster kills, and a "Thanks for Playing" card at the end of the episode Requires Half-Life and Deathmatch Classic (Steam). Owning Quake is recommended. Unzip SlipgateClassic\_Beta0.2.zip (162 MB) into your Half-Life folder so you get Half-Life\SGClassic. Start Game is the full Quake 1 experience. For Select Level, set Game mode first; leave Exits on Normal for co-op.
