HACKING on quake2
=================
To build quake2 from CVS, you will need the following software:
- automake, 1.6
- autoconf, 2.50 or higher
- GNU make
Note to developers: bsd/, irix/ and solaris/ are NO LONGER PERTINENT!
linux/ was renamed src/, so hack in there. As we port to more arch/os's,
we'll integrate the old os subdirs into src/, and remove the old trees.
If you want to hack on something, but don't know where to start, have a look
at TODO in the top level source tree, or open a browser at
http://bugs.quakeforge.net/bugs/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=quake2&archive=no
for the currently open bug reports.
Adding a new screen resolution
------------------------------
Open up src/vid_so.c and find the array "vid_modes". Append your resolution
to this array:
{ "Mode n: RESxRES", RES, RES, n }
Open up src/vid_menu.c and find the array "resolutions" in VID_MenuInit().
Append your resolution so it is the same index as your addition to vid_modes.
Save both, rebuild.
