We split Quake Shareware into files that will fit on 1.44 mb floppies so 

you can copy each file to a disk for backup purposes, or to give to a 

friend who doesn't have internet access (just in case you need someone 

to beat on in deathmatch). All seven disks are required to install 

Quake.

** Getting the full Shareware Version 1.06:

The filenames for the 7 disks are: qsw106_1.zip to qsw106_7.zip.

Alternatively you can download one huge .zip file (8.54 megs) called 

quake106.zip. Regardless of which file(s) you choose to download, the 

installation process is the same for both. 

1. Copy the/all .zip file(s) to a \temp directory. 

2. Unzip the file(s). 

3. Run the file 'install.bat'from the \temp directory and follow the 

directions from there.

** Getting the Patch to upgrade existing Shareware or Registered v1.01 

to v1.06: If you already have v1.01 Shareware OR Registered, you can 

download the patch 1.01 to 1.06 here. To patch your existing version, 

you should copy this file (q101-106.zip) to your \quake directory. Then 

upzip it, and answer 'y' to overwrite the existing file 'quake.exe'. 

Once it is finished unzipping, run the file 'patch.exe' from this same 

directory. Once you are sure it worked, you can delete the q101-106.zip 

and patch.exe files if you want to.

Here is a list of the fixes and changes in the v1.06 release.

If you already have v 1.01, you can download the patch from 1.01 to 1.06 

here.
