Hi,
Having finally got myself together enough to install 2.2.1 on my laptop,
I tried the FreeBSD quake binary that's been lying around doing nowt for
the past couple of months. It tries to start, but falls over with the
following messages:
FindFile: can't find gfx/pop.lmp
Playing shareware version.
FindFile: can't find gfx.wad
Error: W_LoadWadFile: couldn't load gfx.wad
Couldn't write config.cfg.
Now, I have the full version of quake, but I can't find a gfx directory
anywhere. Can anyone out there shed any light on this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Peace ..,
\z\(gr>
