HOW TO RUN - Quake 2 / Mission Pack 1 & 2 [HD] with Soundtrack!

[DreamyAbaddon]

(This patch will allow you to play Quake 2 and the 2 Mission Packs while also enabling the game's Sound Track & let you increase the resolution up to 4k 60FPS .)

WARNING: You will lose your save files when this patch is installed. Please backup your saves!

INSTRUCTIONS:

Step#1 - Install Quake II

Step#2 - Install Quake II Mission Pack: Ground Zero

Step#3 - Install Quake II Mission Pack: The Reckoning

Step#4 - Download the Quake 2 patch from my Google drive:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1MjWzRZYwLSyqJZozlFULG08lzon2_KCf

Step#5 - Launch the Installer and install the patch inside the game's directory.
For example my game's directory is located here:
E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Quake 2

Step#6 - You can now launch the original game or one of the Mission Packs from your Steam Library to play the game.

NOTE: If you install the mission packs after you installed this patch then you will need to re-install this patch again because installing the mission packs will overwright this patch causing it not to work.

Tested on: Windows10 64bit OS
Enjoy! 😊

What if my Ground Zero / Reckoning / Zaero folders are named different?

Don't worry about the folders. I mean if the games are installed on the same hard drive, and you follow this guide, then you should have no problem running the expansion packs. Just try it and let me know how it goes. =)

Most people want to have play time logged and this will not do it under the expansions packs; only as Quake II.

Yeah that's true. Though I am not sure of another solution. If you do please let me know and I can update my guide. I'm only trying to help the community with what I had difficulty with by sharing a solution I found that works.

Good news! I found a patch that not only lets the Expansion packs launch but you can also enable soundtrack too! And you can increase the resolution to 4k 60fps! Check out the new instructions. =)

I know. I made the patch Not sure why you copied it to your dropbox instead of just linking directly to the original.

Hey Butane, I guess that I kind of stepped on your ground creating that Yamagi download I kind of boast around with, should I drop it?

Thanks so much for creating the Patch then!
When I struggle with a game or when I figure out how to mod something, I usually like to save the mod file just incase for preservation and I like to share what I learned with others myself just in case. Your patch is awesome! Keep up the good work! People like you are very much appreciated in the gaming community! <3
