Shareware pak file won't work! (Registered version

[Olz]

I have an HP Jornada 548 w/ 32MB<br><br>I downloaded SH3 PocketQuake and <br>transfered pak0.pak (shareware, self obtained and compressed by me) to the device along<br>with the executable etc.<br><br>Following message appears: <br>Can't run modified games, must have registered version.<br><br>It says in readme.txt that you can use the shareware pak file!  HELP!!! <br><br>P.S. I have all the files in the correct folders too!<br>

I would recommend trying the ready-to-go pak file found on the . You will get that error if the file is corrupted or truncated. I don't know what you used to gzip the pak file, but PQ may not be able to decompress it.<br><br>Dan East<br><br>[sup][color=blue]Last modification: Dan East - 01/04/02 at 11:04:52

I've just tried the pak file uncompressed and it still doesn't work - what have I done wrong?<br><br>Here's my directory structure:<br><br>\Quake<br>pocketquake.exe<br>\quake\id1<br>pak0.pak<br>autoexec.cfg

i'm pretty sure the pak file on the website is the original pak0. the one for the shareware version. so it should work okay. no pop.lmp needed.<br><br>if you want, download the desktop quake demo and use the pak file from that. just it by dragging the file onto the gzip.exe file...

I have the full version of Quake on CD-ROM - on that disc there's a quake_sw directory which contains the shareware version - I've copied the .pak file from there without gzipping it this time and PocketQuake still doesn't work. <br><br>I don't think there's any difference between the registered pak0.pak and the shareware pak0.pak files anyway though....any ideas?!

[Paul]

well this is very strange. if you're using the original shareware pak0.pak it should work fine.<br><br>i cant think of anything. since you have desktop quake, i want you to open the pak1.pak file, goto the gfx folder and get the pop.lmp file. now put that file in this directory on your ppc:<br><br>quake\id1\gfx<br><br>that should fix the problem. although there shouldnt even be a problem.

Thanks guys - problem solved! I'll recommend PocketQuake to everyone with a Pocket PC full heartedly. <br><br>Keep up the good work

I had the same problem, it appears the the full version Quake pak0.pak file will not work without the pak1.pak file.  The shareware one will however.
