QuickStart Instructions

  1. Install Q3Offline by unzipping the Q3Offline.zip file into a new directory, making sure you preserve the folder names (e.g., in Winzip, check "Use folder names").
  2. Run Q3Offline. A new Quake III Arena document will be automatically created. If you want to play Quake III Team Arena or Star Trek Voyager: Elite Forces, then click on the File, New menu, and select "Quake III Team Arena" or "Star Trek Voyager".
  3. On the Game Page, enter or browse the location of your Quake III Arena executable file, quake3.exe. For Star Trek Voyager, enter the location of the stvoyHM.exe file. Also on the Game page, select the game type you want to play, e.g., Free for all or Capture the flag. Change the Game options (e.g., Frag limit) as desired. For team games, you can set which team you want to join, by setting the Team combo box.
  4. On the Maps Page, tick the maps you want to play on. You can choose to play the maps in a random order, and import other maps to play on.
  5. On the Bots Page, tick the bots you want to play against. For team games, use the Bots combo box to select red and blue bots. You can also set the minimum and maximum bot skill, and the minimum and maximum bots for each team, or for all bots if playing a none team game.
  6. Now hit the Play button on the bottom Q3Offline button bar, and get fragging! If playing a team game, hit F12 once the first map has started to join the team of your choice.
  7. Once you have finished playing, use the Q3Offline File, Save menu option to save your settings for the next time you want to play.
