Quake Desktop Theme revision 2.
by C.N. DiNardo
Copyright ⌐ id Software, Inc.
-------------------------------------------------------------
TO INSTALL:
===========
1. Extract the files with a long-filenames capable unzipping utility
( Winzip 6.0 for Windows 95 works ) into your Plus! themes directory,
usually C:\Program Files\Plus!\Themes\
2. There should be two Quake files and one new directory in your Themes
directory, they are :
Quake Theme Read Me.txt -- the file you are now reading
Quake (high color).the -- the file that quakifies your desktop
\Quake Theme -- directory with the theme files in it
3. Use the Desktop Themes control panel to apply the Quake theme to your
computer.
4. Run the following batch file to copy new open & close logo's into
Windows 95. ( It will back up your old ones & rename them logo.bak,
logos.bak & logow.bak ) BUT it only works if you have C drive as your
main drive and windows 95 on that drive in the default folder (ie: c:\
windows). Otherwise, you will have to manually replace your logo.sys,
logos.sys, and logow.sys with the ones I've provided.
c:\Program Files\plus!\Themes\quake\logobkup.bat
This batch file will also put the quake font in your C:\Windows\Font
directory and the ScreenSaver with it's 2 DLL's in your C:\Windows\
System file. REMEMBER, if you do not have windows on your C drive, or
you did not install it to its default directory, you will have to
manually put the quake___ttf file in the windows\font directory, and
the files Sstext3d.scr, Opengl32.dll & Glu32.dll in your Windows\
System directory.
5. Here's how to setup Windows 95 to use the Screen Saver:
a) Right Click on an empty portion of the Screen Select Properties
b) Click on the ScreenSaver Tab
c) Select the Text3D ScreenSaver
d) On the ScreenSaver Window, Click on the Settings Button
e) Click on the Choose Font button
f) Scroll down the list and Choose the QUAKE as the font
g) Click OK
h) Type whatever you want in the TEXT Box (I Suggest "QUAKE RULES Q")
Note: The Quake Font only uses capital letters. Make sure you have
all caps in the text box.
i) The Q's are the Quake Symbol..
j) Click on OK once you have set your preferences, then click on
preview to see what it looks like....ENJOY!!

Addendum :
==========
Sounds : All sounds were taken from the Qtest demo. The wallpaper and font
came from id's ftp site (in the quake\imagery directory). I made the
cursors, icon's and the startup/wait/shutdown screens.
ScreenSaver : Thanks go to Robert Rudeseal for capping off this theme with
a Quakified screen saver. It just didn't feel very quake-like when the
starfield simulation kicked in. :)
If you would like to release an improved version of this quake theme, please
give credit to those who worked on this project before your re-release it.
Credits are at the end of this Quake Read Me file.
Disclamer: Use this theme at your own risk. Do not e-mail gripes,
bitches, or complaints (complements are welcome, however).
If you like it GREAT!! If not...DELETE IT!!!!
All Quake images and sounds are the copyrights and trademarks
