Trimmin' the phat
« on: October 14, 2004, 08:01:12 AM »
Hey Peeps,

I'm looking to find a way to skinny up my Quake2 directory.  My Network and Computer useage policy FINALLY went into effect and I gotta find a way to copy Q2 to a removable media of sorts.  My Quake2 dir currently sucks up 1.5GB of diskspace.  Some of the questions I have for ya are:

What game folders does this xquake server use specifically. I know I could use a filemon tool but I figured to ask.

Q2 dir contains folders like:
Arena
Baseq2
dm64
docs
fear
gxmod
idda
lithium
lithium2
predator
rogue
scrnshot
tmod
weapons

Any of these deletable?

What about this HUGE PAK files? I have .pak files from pak0 - pak9 also a huge jul2001.pak..
Thanks in advance,
-Calvyn-

If you are just looking to play default q2, like on xquake, you could delete all of those except baseq2. The other folders are other mods and stuff.

You should also be able to delete all the packs except pak0-2.

Quake II is not 27 years old. I refuse to accept THAT much time has gone by.
