Hello, guys!
I decided to remember my youth and try this mystical mod again, not alone maybe. I could play this alone or with bots, or with my friends earlier and had too much fun mixed up with cryptic atmosphere

Now i'm trying to run nquakesv with it and having some problems.

command ./mvdsv +gamedir painkeep gives me next errors:



Folder structure is like

and


I tried to change "+gamedir" to "-game" - got same result.
For example - Ktx mod folder doesnt contain QWPROGS.DAT, but contain qwprogs.so.
What i'm doing wrong and what should i do to finally run server with this mod?

I love this mod. Gravity well ftw.

As for your problem, you said trying +gamedir painkeep but the folder in your screenshot is pk. So... +gamedir pk ?

Else try fteqwsv? It can run progs.dat, dunno about mvdsv..

Or this page click

Are you running a 64bit version of mvdsv? If so, try a 32bit version. I've had a very similar problem with the cace mod

Yeah, sorry, it was automatically, i had "painkeep" directory" before making screenshots. It contained Painkeep v2.2.
I tried running "-game pk" also. And also it doesn't start.
But error message differs a little bit:


What's wrong here?


Yeah i will try FTE, l liked FTE client very much, it fits Painkeep athmosphere with all these dark effects and color effects.
But if it can run progs.dat - this means i only can play Normal Quake, not Quakeworld?


Yeah i played there a little. Checked a lot of maps from this server on my local PC. But wanna run my own =) I think it's kinda some gestalt coming from time like 10 years ago. Wanna set server up and see what will happen.

I'm using MVDSV 0.31-dev build from nquakesv distributive (by advice of mushi). How to detect if it 32bit version or 64bit?
Or should i get familiar with QuakeC and learn how to compile it by myself?

if you're on linux, use the "file" command:

file mvdsv

should give you something like :
mvdsv: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64,

if you have the mod source it might be worth trying to compile it, if not you could get the mvdsv source from dimman's repo and compile it:

'FTEQW' (to use the full name of the engine) can use either (nq) progs.dat or qwprogs.dat.
if both are found in the same gamedir, the default is to pick one based upon the deathmatch cvar, but you can explictly name which to use with either 'progs progs' or 'progs qwprogs' (hurrah for simple cvar names sounding a bit weird).
fte servers can use nq mods with qw clients or qw mods with nq clients. it is quite promiscuous.

you can check which arch any linux program was compiled for with the 'file' command. works for all sorts of file types.
the 'version' console command might also display a little more info, but that depends on the engine.
