librequake - classic first person shooter

SYNOPSIS¶

librequake [ENGINE-OPTIONS] [ENGINE-COMMANDS]...

DESCRIPTION¶

This manual page documents briefly the librequake command.

Quake is a popular first-person shooter game that appeared in 1996, released by iD Software. The engine of the game was released under the GPL-2 many years ago.

LibreQuake is a project that provides a complete asset package, to replace proprietary game data from the original Quake, under a free license. This include textures, audio, models, and levels.

This wrapper script will launch LibreQuake using the default Quake engine installed on the system, any options/arguments are passed to the engine unmodified. Consult the engine documentation for full details, but most engines support a syntax whereby engine switches are prefixed with a minus sign, and you can give console commands by prefixing with a plus sign.
