===CDAudio Support===
vitaQuake supports all soundtrack packs for Quake and its two official mission packs, Scourge of Armagon and Dissolution of Eternity. In order for the soundtrack to work, files must be placed in a folder named /cdtracks/ in each campaign folder (main game for example will be ux0:data/Quake/id1/cdtracks).
 
By default, the music folder has tracks named as track02, track03, etc. For vitaQuake, add an extra "0" after "track" in order for them to be loaded properly and in order. Ex.: track02 -> track002.
 
You can find the official soundtrack for the main campaign in .ogg format [https://www.quaddicted.com/files/music/quake_music.zip here].
 
===Loading Expansions and Mods===
vitaQuake supports the official Quake expansions, Scourge of Armagon and Dissolution of Eternity.
 
These were official expansions, so they can be found usually wherever the full base game is sold (GOG, Steam). In order to get them to load properly, place them in the ux0:/data/quake/ folder alongside "id1".
 
Both official mission packs support their own soundtracks as long as they are placed properly in their respective /cdtracks/ folder.
 
Mod compatibility is varied, but as a general rule of thumb, mods compatible with winQuake will be compatible with vitaQuake. Here's a list of some popular mods and their actual working state:

===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.


==Features:==
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.


* Native 960x544 resolution!
You can also alter crosshair color by setting these three values in config.cfg - crosshaircolor_r, crosshaircolor_g, crosshaircolor_b.
* Internal render rescaler
* Sound and Soundtrack support (READ BELOW FOR SOUNDTRACK USAGE)
* Support for shareware and full versions of Quake
* Support for mods
* Native support to both PSVITA analogs
* Unique features like dualshock rumbling, fps counter, ...
* Variable camera sensibility for right analog in option menu
* Touch and retrotouch support
* Danzeff keyboard for Quake console usage
* Different hidden settings unlocked in Options Menu (FOV, Depth of Field, Crosshair...)
* Multiplayer with support for both locale and online games with featured online servers
* Support for native Quake and ProQuake online servers


==TODO List:==
By default these three values are set at 255, 255, 0.
* Switch to hardware GPU rendering
* Add gyroscope support


==Controls:==

CDAudio Support

vitaQuake supports all soundtrack packs for Quake and its two official mission packs, Scourge of Armagon and Dissolution of Eternity. In order for the soundtrack to work, files must be placed in a folder named /cdtracks/ in each campaign folder (main game for example will be ux0:data/Quake/id1/cdtracks).

By default, the music folder has tracks named as track02, track03, etc. For vitaQuake, add an extra "0" after "track" in order for them to be loaded properly and in order. Ex.: track02 -> track002.

You can find the official soundtrack for the main campaign in .ogg format here.

Loading Expansions and Mods

vitaQuake supports the official Quake expansions, Scourge of Armagon and Dissolution of Eternity.

These were official expansions, so they can be found usually wherever the full base game is sold (GOG, Steam). In order to get them to load properly, place them in the ux0:/data/quake/ folder alongside "id1".

Both official mission packs support their own soundtracks as long as they are placed properly in their respective /cdtracks/ folder.

Mod compatibility is varied, but as a general rule of thumb, mods compatible with winQuake will be compatible with vitaQuake. Here's a list of some popular mods and their actual working state:

Expansion/Mod Link Status
Dissolution of Eternity Official Expansion Fully Working
dopa Free Fully Working
Halo Revamped Free Boots, lots of bugs
Kurok Free Playable with glitches
Nazi Zombies Portable Free Not Working
Quake Rally Free Fully Working
Scourge of Armagon Official Expansion Fully Working
Slayer's Testament Free Crash on models loading
SUPERHOT Quake Free Working without monochromatic graphics
