I get a "couldn't execute gamespy.cfg" message from quake 2 every time
I try to log on to a Quake 2 server.

I think I may not have successfully upgraded to 3.20; I get a "couldn't
load pics/colormap.pcx" error from windows when I try to run quake 2
alone.

Am I missing this file, and is that why I can't log on to any
multiplayer servers?

Can someone tell me where I might find this file?

THanks very much...
