VitaQuakeII 1.0.1 released
Vita scene developer Rinnegatamante has released an update for VitaQuakeII.
What is VitaQuakeII?
VitaQuakeII is a port of Quake II for the PS Vita. You will need a hacked PS Vita (e.g. running Henkaku) in order to run this game.
With this new release, the developer fixed a few issues and added a few improvements, specifically:
– Rescaler now works as intended. Before it didn’t really change the in-game resolution.
– Now rescaler won’t cause random crashes anymore.
– Now closing the homebrew from the Exit voice won’t cause a crash anymore.
– Adjusted standard camera sensibility.
– Fixed camera sensibility option in Options menu to make it more flexible.
– Adjusted Options menu renaming some voices and removing others that didn’t do anything on the Vita port.
Rinnegatamante was holding on the release in the hope to add more features, unfortunately he has recently been considering leaving the scene, and therefore chose to release what he already has, to wrap things up nicely.

Neat, I actually own a legit copy of Q2 on CD.
But what’s the point if we have PSone Quake 2 ?
Because this is a port of the original PC Quake II which is much better.
The PS1 version is impressive for the platform, but it doesn’t come close.
The psx Quake 2 port was fudged beyond belief lol. Most of the game levels had to be shortened, and toned back cause of the consoles limitations. That and it didn’t support the expansion packs. If Rinnegatamante stays we may see expansion pack support on top of the complete game in it’s entirety.
That’s the point of this port.
We still need you Rinn!
I wish someone would port Jedi Knight games in the future
Please add the option to use command line cheats
Rinnegatamante, whether or not you choose to leave the Vita scene, I just wanted to say THANK YOU for your contributions! Programming can be a thankless job, no matter how many people enjoy the software! Your generosity doesn’t go unnoticed.
did quake 2 become freeware or do i need to buy a copy and move files over? i just know with doom and wolfenstein i have to move wads and whatever the wolfwnstein files are from my pc over to get them to work.
thanks in advance
