all the quake2 packages are designed to look for data files in the global |
| 12 |
location of /usr/share/games/quake2-data ... some games also allow you to |
| 13 |
override with local stuff, but whatever ... |

the quake2-data package is designed to be an easy installer of the quake2 data |
| 16 |
files ... when you emerge it you can tell it to either get the data files |
| 17 |
from the quake2 cd or if (like me) you already have the game installed on a |
| 18 |
windows partition, you can tell it to copy the data files from there ... |
