I have just installed Q2 after many years of not playing it. I went into a deathmatch server and for about 3 minutes I just sat there and laughed. I'd forgotten what a great game this is. Also, it looks a lot faster than it used to. Am I getting old or is it running faster on new pc's? Anyway, on to my main point. I have no skins saved anywhere so was wondering if someone knew of a huge zip file with loads of skins, models, maps that I could download somewhere? I really dont want to have to download thousands of files individually all over the net. Thanks for any help. .

Ewwwww... Remember when there were hundreds of posts here a day? And all the arguments? I'd leave because of the arguements... Now it seems mostly spam stuff... SIGH... You still on the Q2ML? I don't see you posting there anymore... Ah well, nice to see you again! And I d/l'd a bunch of stuff from that ftp site... Most of my Q2 stuff is on a zip disk and I have to install the darn drive into my computer (it's sitting there looking forlorn wondering when I'll get to it)... Babs

I mean, I used to get 26-48 fps in 800x600 and was happy to get a sub 400 ping in *any* server on dialup. Now, I only get 267 fps in 1280x1024 and 20 ping. I am getting old, need all the help I can get! :) McG.
