Hi,

i'm playing quake v.1.01 in a LAN (windows98/windows98)
with a Pentium 166 and a Compaq Presario AMD-K6II 333.
I choose to play with IPX (is TCP/IP better?)

The Compaq is the "server"

Here are the problems:

-i can't save a game (is this normal for the multiplayer game?)

-how can i see what the other player see?
-how can i see his life and his shells (without asking him)?
-can i see his position in a map?

-a fiew times the player with the Pentium 166 can't walk forward,he can only
see right and left.He has to quit the game and to join my game again (and he
loose all his weapons).Why this happens?

-Is there a Quake manual online?Where?

-I'd like to play Quake under Linux in a LAN.Can you axplain me how it
works?

Thank you for your help.

Joel
