Manual

Welcome! This HTML document is the instruction manual for the Quake 2 modification ("mod") called GENERATIONS.

Generations combines four of the greatest first-person shooters of all time... all made by id Software. Fans of Wolfenstein-3D, Doom, Quake, and Quake II can now have their four favorite games together in one game!

In case you're not familiar with Generations, here's a small list of some of the features:

  • Players can select from Wolf, Doom, Quake1, or Quake2 classes

  • Each class has its own strengths and weaknesses

  • Each class features its own unique weapons from the original games

  • Wolfenstein class includes weapons only in the Macintosh version of the game--never available on PC until now!

  • Players can use their own skins... Quake2 class can use any model

  • Players can roam around in levels from Quake2, Quake1, or Doom! [Wolfenstein levels planned in a later release]

  • Support for DeathMatch, Single Player, Cooperative, and Capture-The-Flag modes of play.

  • Includes the complete shareware levels from Quake1, fully enabled for SP play! Take on the Quake1 monsters! [Doom SP support planned... check out DE2M8]

  • and much, much more!

To play, you will need Quake2 v3.20 or higher. This manual will assume that Gen is already installed, and that you are familar with the commands necessary for playing Quake2. However, it does NOT assume that you are familiar with the characters or subtle differences in Quake2, Doom, or any of these games. If you've never played one of these games, just click on the tab above for a quick briefing!
