Not quite - the .PAK files are a varient of the Doom Wad file, where the data files are stored uncompressed. But any modern file management utility shouldn't have trouble with standard game compression systems. The only thing special you have to do when doing a mod is to store files in their own directory, and using the "-game folder" command line option. >Now I just want to get Quake running on this rig...grrr! I heard Tenebrae (or whatever it's spelling is) gives a higher-quality rendering of Quake scenes... That will get anyone to play Quake to see the revamped engine. :)
