HOLY CRAP YEA!
For Many more Q2 Jams!
Excellent work!
OH YEAH!!!!
Are this compatible with Yamagi or Kmquake ?
No, unfortunately not. They might load to some degree, but many of these maps use entities and world settings which are specific to the Quake 2 Re-Release and the N64 mode specifically.
Thanks for the info, m8
Hey there.
First of all: this is dope stuff and I'll play through this for sure as quicky as possible. I encountered a little bug though. During the short intro sequence with the 64 jam logo some HUD parts and the crosshair will be visible.

I launched this jam using a Desktop shortcut including the following target line:
"...\Games\Quake II Enhanced\quake2ex_gog.exe" +map n64jam_intro
Thank you for letting us know!
Any news on a future update? Also would it be possible to use the Quake 64 HUD for this? That would make this Jam even more authentic.
Congratulations on the release! I sincerely hope this is the first of many Q2 SP mapping jams to come!
Thank you and you bet that there's much more on the way!
This is amazing, thanks to everyone for all their hard work on this!
This map pack being updated for episode list integration? I saw Prototype Jam and Sewer Jam 1 slotting into the New Game menu seamlessly.
I second this. This would be a great update.
