Hey there folks...

I'm having a problem with installing the quake 3 Point release 1.30...

As soon as I try to install it..and then try to run the game, the console stops and shows me a message "User interface is version 4, expected 3"

I have been looking around for an answer as to why it does this and all I found was something about connecting to a server that would give this error...

When the console starts it still says version 1.11 too by the way...for some reason it won't update.. I have a lot of fresh levels that I want to take a look at...but without point release 1.30 working I can't...

Can anybody out there help me??

Thanks..
Max.

Make sure it's installing to the correct place. If you have Q3 installed anyplace besides C:\Program Files it won't find it by itself.

That far I got...

I have installed the game to Games\Quake 3 Arena\ and pointed the update to that directory...

I have heard from a friend of mine that the problem could be that the update installs its files in a different directory, however I wouldn't know which files they would be and where to look for them...

Thanks allready,
Max.

Have you got it fixed yet Dragon? That user interface error I think is usually when it expects a different q3config.cfg file to be loaded. You might try deleting the one in your baseq3 folder and it'll make a new one first time you start the game. This shouldn't be too hard to figure out with all the brains we have around here.
