For anyone interested, John Carmack and id have released the source to quake2 under the GPL. Some mirrors are listed at http://slashdot.org/articles/01/12/22/053211.shtml Not a bad christmas present from carmack to the community!

Hey MrBastard,

Thanks for the info. I went looking around and found that GameDev has a mirror of the source at Gamedev.net Quake2 Source Mirror.

Take care,
Nyko

can someone tell me how big that file is??? I just searched around, found some mirrors and such, but no filesize :o and I cant be downloading large files from my 56k modem - it''ll die!!! =)

thanks,

Jack;

1,44 mb

Yup, just the source ma''am

if you don''t know the size of something start downloading it and your comp will retrieve the file size with the info. if you don''t like the size stop downloading.
