------------ SpaceOrb 360 Quake Beta TEN Patch --------------

------------------------ beta beta beta -----------------------------



This software is still beta. Please use at your own risk. 



---------------------  TEN and Quake ---------------------------

Background

----------



The TEN network has not yet added official support for external 

devices in their present client software.  Until this support is 

added, the present TEN software does not provide the capability to

pass command line parameters to a target game, as is required with

the SpaceOrb 360.  



A formal solution to this issue is being worked on by TEN and 

Spacetec IMC Corporation.  In the meantime, this PATCH

program will allow a user to use their SpaceOrb 360 with Quake

over the TEN network.



Spacetec IMC Corporation is releasing this PATCH to provide an

interim solution until TEN officially supports the SpaceOrb. To 

install this software, you should have some familiarity with DOS

batch files, and with using a text editor to modify them. You

should also be familiar with DOS directory structures.



This PATCH, which copies, patches and renames the QUAKETEN.EXE file

for use with the TEN Network, has been developed by a SpaceOrb 360

customer named John Raeford (aka Dutchman on TEN).  Thank you 

for your time, energy and assistance John!



Note : This PATCH program and its components are to be used

       ONLY when playing Quake over TEN with the SpaceOrb 360.



Steps

-----

1. Download the TENQUAKE.EXE into your Quake directory.



2. Unzip the TENQUAKE.EXE by typing TENQUAKE.EXE in your Quake directory.

   This will uncompress several files, including TENQUAKE.BAT and 

   QUAKESPW.BAT.



3. Run TENQUAKE.BAT from the Quake directory.  This will 

   configure Quake for TEN.  

   

   NOTE : You MUST run TENQUAKE.BAT EVERY time you want to use 

          the SpaceOrb 360 with Quake over TEN.



4. You will need to edit the QUAKESPW.BAT file to insure that the Quake

   and SpaceOrb directories are correct.  The directories in the original

   QUAKESPW.BAT file that comes with the PATCH are the Default directories

   provided during SpaceWare installation.  



   The QUAKESPW.BAT file looks as follows (w/ REM statements removed):



   call C:\spcware\spaceorb\orbload.bat

   c:

   CD c:\spcware\spaceorb\games

   spwquake.exe -sbconfig spwquake.scg -dir c:\spcware\quake -exe realquake.exe -noshow %1 %2 %3 %4 %5  

   

   To edit the file to match your directory structure :



   1. Replace the C:\SPCWARE\SPACEORB entries (on lines 1 & 3),

      with the directory name where you installed the SpaceWare software.  

      C:\SPCWARE\SPACEORB is the default directory.  Remember to keep

      ORBLOAD.BAT command on line 1 when you modify the pathname.  

      Also be sure to keep the \GAMES at the end of the directory

      entry on line 3.



   2. Replace the C:\QUAKE entry (on line 4), with the

      directory name where Quake is installed.



NOTE:

------

You MUST run TENQUAKE.BAT prior to loading TEN each time you want to run 

the SpaceOrb 360 with Quake over TEN.  This also insures that Quake will

run correctly from the DOS Game Launcher when not playing over TEN.  When

not running over TEN, run Quake from the DOS Game Launcher.  



Make sure that both the SpaceOrb DOS Game Launcher and TEN are NOT running 

at the same time in Windows 95.
