486Quake r6
this release adds several minor optimizations. however, most 486-class systems will not see measurable improvement in timedemo benchmarks compared to r4.
the crash that occurred when no sound card was attached and the game was launched without the -nosound parameter has also been fixed.
if you are not sure which file to use for your cpu, here's a rough guide:
- 386quake.exe
- all 386 cpus and clones
- 486quake.exe
- all socket 1/2/3 processors, except Pentium Overdrive
- TI 486DLC and 486 SLC
- Cyrix 6x86, 6x86L, 6x86MX
- AMD K6
- IDT WinChip
- 586quake.exe
- all Pentium processors
- AMD K5
- 686quake.exe
- Pentium Pro and beyond
- possibly Cyrix 6x86MX (untested)
