Quake for PSP: Insomnia is a modification of the ProQuake/Kurok Sony PSP engine focusing on hardware rendering optimization & mod support functionality.

Installation

Note: To play this, you will need the original Quake .pak files as they are not included.

Rev 4 of the engine is optimized for PSP Slim's 64mb of ram. There is also a PSP Fat version though it may not be compatible with all included mods.

To install, copy contents of PSP folder to the root of your PSP Memory Stick.

PAK0.PAK and PAL1.PAK go into ma0:/PSP/GAME/Insomnia/ID1/.

User guide

When the "-prompt" command line argument is added to the quake.cmdline file (done be default), the user is prompted to select a mod folder (first option "blank" for default Quake Campaign) upon initial boot of the Insomnia game.

You can also set default launch parameters in "quake.cmdline", examples: "-setmodmusic" will enable Mod Music On by default. "-linear" will enable Texture Filtering On by default. "-heap X" will enable Heapsize to X number by default. "-cpu X" will set CPU speed to X number by default.

Recommended settings for memory allocation:

  • PSP Slim - CPU Speed: 333 and Heapsize: 33.
  • PS Vita/PSP Phat - CPU Speed: 333 and Heapsize: 14.

Revision 2 2016/06/25
