*** This is the first and original port of Darkplaces Quake 1 to Android, while commercial forks are NOT, don't pay for a free GPL product ***
The original author of this app is not me (I'm just a publisher, description is written by him). Legal information is available in the end of description.
QI4A is a port of Darkplaces engine (based on Quake engine) to Android. It is based on GPL source code. Note that THIS APP DOESN'T CONTAIN OR DOWNLOAD ANY OF QUAKE 1 DATA FILES, you need to copy "ID1" folder from Quake 1 game (patched to the latest version, for example you can buy it on Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/2310/ ) to the folder specified in QI4A launcher (create that folder manually, example of correct path to "ID1" folder: "/sdcard/qi4a/ID1" with "/sdcard/qi4a" directory in launcher).
Controls features:- 10-finger multitouch =)- Move and resize all controls.- Hide controls and add more, you can configure opacity for any control.- Analog movement joystick- Full mouse support! (with root rights only). This is the only port that supports mouse (at the moment).- Gamepad and keyboard support just as on your PC: you can rebind buttons in-game or in console for advanced tuning.
Graphics features:- Configure resolution and color depth by yourself. You can even set 100x100 resolution: all resolutions are supported (except negative values =)).- Set MSAA for best graphics.
Known issues:1) Doesn't run Xonotic/Nexuiz well on devices with low RAM. Even 1Gb is low sometimes =)
GPL source code is included in APK. It is placed in APKassetssource. This project doesn't use any code from "Quake Touch" (and other Beloko's and monica john's "ports").QI4A stands for "Quality Impressive game engine FOR All.".

VERSION HISTORY

Added ACCESS_SUPERUSER permission because some authors of Superuser apps think that it is clever to ask root permissions twice (but I think that it is the most stupid idea I've ever heard).,Replaced one-time donate notification with bottom offline ad: 4 (for each port) one-time notifications are quite annoying.,A bit more friendly to users that don't read the description.,Updated engine and GCC used to build it. - Version 2.0 posted on 2013-05-29
Several fixes and updates
