Chaotic Dreams

i downloaded the 14mb file lastnight and i followed the intructions created a shortcut added the target line and when i use my short-cut all i get is
Initalizion Error or something similer.

Hiya Hexem!

I'm not the best one to ask.... but maybe it can't find Chaos.
Have you double-checked to see that the install put the files in the right places? You should now have a folder named "chaos" beneath your Quake2 folder with several folders within it.

My chaos shortcut reads: D:\Quake2\quake2.exe +set game Chaos
If yours is different or longer, it's only the \Quake2\quake2.exe +set game Chaos part that should be the same.

I'm no guru in these forums but this is a starter for you until someone who knows more can jump in.

More info from your side would be good too... like....
-Are you running Quake2 version 3.20?
- cut 'n paste your shortcut commandline for us...
- Do you run other Quake2 mods or is Chaos your first?
... the better you describe the problem the faster we can fix it

The 14Mb file you downloaded was Chaos version 1.12 I think. You might also consider getting the most current version V1.14beta. There's a link to it also from the ChaosDM downloads page.

hi no i never updated my quake2 cus i dont have a fast connection and it takes too long.
i got chaos cus the weapons looked cool and i want to play the bots.
here is my cmd line my hd is different to yours.
C:\Quake2\quake2.exe +set game chaos +set deathmatch 1 +set ctf 0
exactly the same in the manual that i got with it.
btw i love that dancing cow.

Hi again Hexem

There's nothing wrong with that command line at all.
If all of the Chaos files installed properly I think all you need to do is update your Quake2 to version 3.20 and you'll be playin' Chaos
