Well, for all of you who think Cydia doesn’t have anything worth jailbreaking for, now there is. Quake has been ported to the iPhone and works on firmware 2.0. This game is very playable but only comes with the shareware Quake files so some of the levels are locked. The sound works great and I didn’t have any lag. Here are some screenshots. We’ll get a video review out as soon as we can.




































egh. not exciting.
like i said before all i want to my themes back.

Hi,
Not sure where to ask this; I don’t see any contact info. Anyway, is there any way you can tell us about the software installed with Cydia, and which is safe to uninstall? It seems like there are a lot of things installed, and I’m not sure if any of it is running in the bkgnd and affecting battery life. Here’s everything that’s listed in my ‘manage’ section of Cydia:
avd-cmds
APT
ARM Floating Point
Base Structure
Berkeley DB
Bourne-Again SHell
bzip2
Core Utilities
Darwin Tools
Debian Packager
Find Utilities
Gawk
gettext
GNU Privacy Guard
grep
gzip
inetutils
less
libgcc
libresolv
libutil
nano
network-cmds
New Vi
pcre
readline
rsync
sed
shell-cmds
system-cmds
Tape Archive
unzip
zip

agree … why so many things installed and anytime you uninstall it says are you sure…..usafe delete mode or whatever…seems strange not as easy as installer… i dont care either one but they need to be easy for the common folk!
DJContagious on July 27th, 2008 1:05 pm:
chill out, those are things that allow applications to work, fix perms, change folders, ya know? Just the preperation for all the apps in Cydia. Installer has that pre-installed too, but doesnt show it.
how i can save?

This kills my iphone…
This and randomapps in Cydia freeze cydia then after a forced restart it hangs on boot screen…
This happened with 2.0 legit (i’m an o2 uk user) and jailbroken…
any ideas?

on trying to install this now my phone crashed i still prefer installer than cydia; installer is more user friendly as cydia is crowded with too many programming languages and you dont know what the heck to install first

Not a bad game, enough levels to want you to donate and receive more levels. Graphics are a little dark and hard to see sometimes. Some of the buttons aren’t active. Two things I don’t like, the game control buttons obscure game play and there’s no support for using accelerometer. I believe they’re making a game pad you can slot the phone into.

hm I open up Cydia and dont see Quake anywhere. Do we need to add a source? Btw, Cydia is very well done, me likes more than Installer. Feels more sturdy.

adamg on July 27th, 2008 11:02 pm:
never mind it showed up and I downloaded. Using the controls on the screen is kind of a drag, not super accurate. I wouldn’t mind at all a game pad as suggested by aussieiphone. Otherwise, awesome that people are willing to port stuff to iPhone while bypassing apps store. Seems there really is a future there and Apple must learn to deal with it.
rocket on July 28th, 2008 4:23 am:
No, we don’t. I prefer Installer, but Cydia is fine. At least there are SOMEthings in there, and more to come (hopefully):p
Umm, is it just me or does that look more doom than quake?
Or maybe it’s just because both games are so far back in time and my head that they just blurrrr together these days

Matt on July 27th, 2008 9:34 pm:
lol both r classics
rocket on July 28th, 2008 4:26 am:
Oh well, I guess you’re right:D
source error. Should of known using cydia can’t wait for stable installer

Jon on July 27th, 2008 4:09 pm:
source error for me only occured if i was on the cellular network, for me edge, but when i was on wifi it went threw with no problems
how to I go backout from option screen? I can’t change the controls bcz I can’t backout.

is this technically legal? just wondering. i think it is because they are just shareware files. thanks

se7en on July 27th, 2008 7:24 pm:
Screw legality. For games this old, rights should eventually just vanish away.
Brooke on July 27th, 2008 8:23 pm:
It is shareware so it is legal.
anyone can tell me, if i can save my progress ?? how?
[Reply]
I want Orb.. There announcement page said 2.0 Api released so I don’t know if that has anything to do with it. I think there suggesting someone else has to do it.
[Reply]
please how can I save.. help help

Chip on July 28th, 2008 7:35 am:
yea, I’ve played the game numerous times. But it seems like I always end up needing to do something else and I can’t figure out how to save my game so I can go back.
say something intelligent then.
