How do I get this working on Windows 10?
Rename the crx.exe to Quake2.exe
And use CoreRED version 1.3. This one's old.
First, there is no file called crx.exe anywhere in my CodeRED directory or its subdirectories.
Second where do I download CodeRED version 1.3? It's not on this site and a Google search came up empty.
There was a download for it on Gamefront or some site where you can get it but I'll upload it here instead:
Mega.nz
Don't forget the expansion as well:
Mega.nz
For the expansion you also have to edit the .bat file to read quake2 instead of crx.
As for the 1.1 version I think you can rename any of the 2 .exe files to play it.
So far it's balanced more on the easier side than 1.3 since the blaster is hitscan and does way more damage. The alien cannon also is overpowered and the big mechs don't have a ranged attack. Makes the harder levels towards the beginning a lot less frustrating.
Have both downloads from above, with crx renamed Quake2, but still not working. Battle For Earth gives me a black screen with a blue "busy spinner" for a munite or so and drops back to the desktop and Martian Chronicles just gives a black screen for a few seconds before dropping back. Neither gives error messages at all.
keeps crashing on me with windows 7 any way to fix the crash
doesn't work with windows 8, any tips?
It seems to CTD on Windows 7, too. I'll try some stuff and see what works.
