Lol you didn't say anything that i hadn't already said. I have a link to the file, but I am unsure if I am allowed to link websites. To do so, you need to download a file called "dcmappack.zip" on the computer (Dreamcast needs nothing). Originally posted by Inali:To expand on the previous comment, you CAN crossplay Dreamcast and PC/Mac/Linux Quake 3 games. You can always do little console command search, pc commands are same thing, work on both, though dc has some that don't do anything, where on pc side it will. Might be able do it from the main menu to, i can't remember. Do that from offline side (any random vs ai match will do. So look into it, but always the same no matter server in most cases). Think the command was /connect "255.255.255.255:23896" something like that ip (255 ip just example thats w/e you connecting to)and : for your port (port is usually always the same not sure if i remembered that port # 100% correctly. That is how you can do a dc/pc servers after the master servers shut down for dc. Use the dc in game console command to type in the ip you want to connect to. So any patches after 2002/03 for pc might be your issue so try versions before 2002/03 (or dc shut down date). More google research might bring up the exact date. I'm getting old my memory aint as good as it used to be. I hope my knowledge can help you guys out take care.Įdit: By the way if version really is a problem, dc side shut down i think sometime in 2002 or 03 thats long time ago. I've never had the chance to test that theory.Īnyways, happy gaming. Now if you was some how able to modify dc's disc data there might be away dc could play custom maps and servers larger than 4 ppl. Also can not play on servers larger than 4.
Quake 3 dreamcast maps update#
Now with all that said DC can not play any custom maps, because there was no way to download the custom maps and update the client side like pc could do.
Quake 3 dreamcast maps mod#
i remember the grappling hook mod good times. DC was fully capable of playing modded servers with just rail guns. That is why you need this pack on your pc side.
Reason behind this is because see dc actually had a few exclusive maps, that pc didn't naturally have. try google search of " Dreamcast Quake 3 Arena Map Pack" think thats the term i searched. My dreamcasts, I mean more than 3 died long time ago lol. dc map pack is just a standard pk3 file you drop into your pc baseq3 folder. But don't forget you have to have the dreamcast map packs i downloaded them some where year or 2 ago, google for them this is the only way dc can play with pc players.
Quake 3 dreamcast maps software#
I’m wanting to see what version of the PC build I need to use for the DC, since that is the main reason they’re no longer officially cross platform.Īny version should work, because dreamcast wasn't like ya know consoles today it didn't get software updates.
The unofficial OG Xbox port also is and evidence of this can be seen on Youtube. The DC version officially was but it apparently still can. Originally posted by Son Goku:They are cross platform.
