[Quake 1] The Nehahra Quake Project (SPOILERS)

http://www.zhakaron.com/p/the-nehahra-quake-project.html In this video I summarize the 4 hour Seal of Nehahra movie in 5 mins and then proceeded to show highlights from the game Nehahra which is a mod for Quake 1. Made 3 years after Team Fortress 1 this Singleplayer expansion to quake is far better than any of the official mission packs and provides a superior experience for Co-Op as well. Every time a cut-scene plays, a link will appear you can click to skip to the gameplay if you want. In the movie, The Seal of Nehahra, you witness a huge cast of characters including the hero named MAX whom becomes the villain and final boss of Nehahra the game for Quake One. In Nehahra the singleplayer game, you play as Jake Torres, a psychic whom was a minor character in the four hour movie leading up to the game. When the immortal, Max seals off the dimension and orders his forces to attack, you are stuck and have to survive. This leads you through a series of levels and cutscenes which explain what Max is up to while you are fighting for your life, eventually cumulating in Max's plan to have you take out Nehahra for him. Then, in order to return to earth you must face Max in a one on one deathmatch, except he as immortal superpowers, so the fight is not fair even on easy. Speaking of EASY, Nehahra's 'easy' difficulty level is equivalent to that of normal quake on HARD. That means that Nehahra's nightmare mode is insane by modern day standards. Nehahra was made for regular quake, not Quakeworld, but can use the Darkplaces engine to enhance your online experience should you choose to play in Co-Op. By default the game expects you to run a special program file called nehahra.exe but you should download the latest Darkplaces file instead and use that. I made this video because of the renewed popularity Quake, especially Team Fortress 1 videos have been getting lately. #Download Everything: 1 - Get Quake (the first one, NOT Quake 2, 3, or 4): http://store.steampowered.com/app/2310/ 2 - Get the latest version of Darkplaces: http://icculus.org/twilight/darkplaces/ 3 - Get Nehahra Full - http://www.moddb.com/mods/nehahra/downloads/nehahra-full 4 - Get The Seal of Nehahra - http://www.moddb.com/mods/nehahra/downloads/seal-of-nehahra #Installation 1 - Install Quake 2 - Install Darkplaces into the Quake Folder 3 - Install Nehahra Full into the Quake Folder. 4 - Install The Seal of Nehahra into the Quake Folder. (YES Overwrite any files when asked.) Inside your Quake Folder there should now be several new program files as well as a Nehahra folder. 5 - Open up notepad. 6 - Paste in the following line: darkplaces.exe -nehahra -game nehahra 7- Go to "Save As", in the Save as File type box, change it from Text Documents to All Files. 8 - name the file nehquake.bat and save it into the quake folder #How to Play 1 - Go to your Quake Folder, double click on Nehquake.bat This will run the Darkplaces Engine in Nehahra Mode (special engine features), using the Nehahra game (instead of ID1 which is standard quake). 2 - Go to Single Player, New Game 3 - You are in game! Choose your difficulty level, choose wisely as EASY is like normal Quake's HARD, and anything harder is insane by normal gamer standards. 4 - Once you start the game a 15 min introduction cutscene will play, then you will gain control of your character. #How to Play Co-Op 1 - Make sure all of your friends have installed this properly. 2 - Go to your Quake Folder, double click on Nehquake.bat 3 - Go to Multiplayer, New Game, Set your PORT (More below on that). 4 - Change Game Type from Deathmatch to Cooperative (NOTE: Nehahra does NOT support deathmatch, so if you try to make a Deathmatch Nehahra server without massive tweaks to the levels, things will get SCREWY.) 5 - Teamplay On (NOTE: Teams are defined by the pants color, all players of the same pants color will not be able to friendly fire each other. You can change pants color in Player Setup under Multiplayer) 6 - Skill Anything you want but for Co-Op I EXTREMELY recommend NIGHTMARE. 7 - Frag Limit and Time Limit should both be NONE. 8 - Public Server on if you want random people to see it on the server list, otherwise off. 9 - Server maxrate (Don't mess with this unless you know what it means) 1000000 is default. 10 - Server Name, whatever you want. 11 - IMPORTANT: SKIP THE WELCOME LEVEL FOR CO-OP, start on The Fall of Forge Forge City1: Skipgates neh1m1 12 - Have any friends run the game and then go to Multiplayer, Join Game, Make sure the PORT is the same as yours, and connect to your IP address. Q: Friends can't connect to my sever! A: Is your router configured to have the port your server is on open? Q: I don't have access to my router to fix it! What do I do? A: If you are one of these sad individuals, then you and all your friends will have to resort to using a program like Hamachi in order to host and join servers. I will not be providing information on how to do this.
