vitaVoyager is a port of lilium-voyager, a fork of ioquake3 for running Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force Holomatch (multiplayer).

It is based on Thilo Schulz' ioEF engine (also known as iostvoyHM). The focus for Lilium Voyager is to maintain Elite Force multiplayer support on newer ioquake3 versions.

Both local and online multiplayer are fully implemented as well as game against bots.

Note: It is suggested not to mess up with Setup menu since the release will have an already tweaked config file that should offer a good framerate without downgrading too much graphics. If you want to change some settings, edit hmconfig file inside baseEF folder.

Installation

Install libshacccg.suprx, if you don't have it already, by following this guide.

Install the VPK, extract vitavoyager_data.zip (containing full holomatch data files) to ux0:/data.

User guide

How to use lower resolutions

To use lower resolutions to improve framerate more, edit in q3config file the r_mode parameter to:

  • 0 = 480x272
  • 1 = 640x368
  • 2 = 720x408
  • 3 = 960x544

How to enable dynamic lights and mipmaps

If you used to play vitaQuakeIII before v.1.0 release, you probably have those two features disabled in your config files. To enable them edit:

  • r_dynamiclight from 0 to 1
  • r_textureMode from GL_LINEAR to GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR or GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_NEAREST

R - Shoot
