Custom Crosshair:
Starting with vitaQuake v.4.0, it will be possible to use a completely custom crosshair with the game.
To do so, you should create a file named xhair.bin and place it in ux0:data/Quake/GAMEFOLDER folder (GAMEFOLDER will be id1 for main Quake for example).
This file must contains 64 bytes that will define the 8x8 crosshair glyph. A byte set at 0xFE will mean a visible pixel. A byte set at 0xFF will mean an invisible pixel.
The custom crosshair usage can be enabled in Options menu. If no xhair.bin is provided, when Custom crosshair will be set, QuakeWorld crosshair2 will be used.
You can also alter crosshair color by setting these three values in config.cfg:
crosshaircolor_r, crosshaircolor_g, crosshaircolor_b.
By default these three values are set at 255, 255, 0.

- MasterFeizz for ctrQuake source which i studied to understand how winQuake works.
- Ch0wW for several improvements and code cleanup.
- frangarcj, xerpi and Davee for helping during the journey that lead to the creation of vitaGL.
- All my patroners for their awesome support:
- Place the data folder in ux0:/
How to use soundtrack:
- Create a folder in ux0:/data/Quake/id1 and call it cdtracks
- Place the audio tracks renamed as track001, track0002, ... in ogg or mp3 format in this folder.
You can find complete soundtrack in ogg format here: https://www.quaddicted.com/files/music/quake_music.zip
How to have colored lights:
As of v.2.8, colored lights are available thanks to .lit lights support from DarkPlaces client by LordHavoc.
The simplest way to get colored lights in Quake is to download this package: http://www.moddb.com/games/quake/addons ... -lightmaps
Grab LIGHTS.PAK file and place it in your vitaQuake installation (where pak0.pak is) and rename LIGHTS.PAK as if it's a normal pak (so if you have pak0 and pak1, rename it pak2.pak).
That package has colored lights support for the two official mission packs too.
