When I run QI4A the console drops and displays "SERVER LISTENING ON ADDRESS 0.0.0.0:36000", the game doesn't run, can anyone suggest a way to fix this ? I need full mouse and keyboard support, Q-Touch doesn't have it.

l have this issue too! l binded the jump button to 'toggleconsole' which works during the intro demo but won't get rid of the console once l select new game! l tried copying one of the saves form my PC but that didn't solve my problem either. l'd really appreciate some help here.

How to play Quake 4 on Android ...btw if anyone here buys Delta Touch or Quad Touch they are really worth it in every penny you expend on the. The delta touch paid version runs doom 3 flawlessly almost perfect just a little dips on fps on my Mediatek helio p60


Edit: you got no glitches on the videos on doom 3 and you can also run old doom games with the mods like BrutalDoom and other stuffs

q14a or qi4a server listening on adress 0.0.0.0:2600

Please resurrect it 8> on the FDroid, now you need max. android 4 tablet to play it. Any other quake is also available as apk with same port.

qii4a tipp: mouse is too slow: draw keyboard softkey to screen, go to menu, go to console, open keyboard, type: sensitivity enter, it displays the value, type in sensitivity 22, then play, you will have double the mouse speed as the max possible in settings menu. You can type even higher number. To see the console output you have to hide the keyboard.

Quake Info: Quake titles were the first trible a pc games, the technology was new and the developers surpassed themselves in order to get the maximum out of limited options. John Carmack was the programmer of the engines which made all this possible. ID Software released the code for the engine as opensource, so programmers around the world could update the code and make even their own games with it. ID was the first one who went this route, very very impressive pioneering.

Q1+2 map key tipp: edit config.cfg and add the softkeys:
Q1
bind TAB "impulse 5"
bind 1 "impulse 6"
bind 2 "impulse 7"
bind 3 "impulse 8"
Q2
bind TAB "use Machinegun"
bind 1 "invuse"
bind 2 "invprev"
bind 3 "use HyperBlaster"

Q2 Q3: I get weird graphics for Buttons??!?!? see picture, seems like random bitmaps from pak files, they change over time, in Q3 the buttons disappear completely.
this problem with this and that:

Code:

https://xdaforums.com/t/sm-p600-4-4-4-cyanogenmod-11-note-10-1-2014-wifi.2929908

7" nexus7 stock, no problems, samsung galaxy Tab 2 1GB with lineage android 7x no problem

only on 10" P600 2014 note 10.1 samsung tab, But Q1 runs perfect on cm11 Android 4, (it never runs on Android 5 above.)
