Get Quake

nQuake is a complete QuakeWorld package consisting of ezQuake, configs, textures and everything else you need to get started with QuakeWorld in a matter of minutes. It currently supports Windows, Linux and Mac.

Get in Touch

Our forum section is vast, and once was the core for community wide communication. However, sometimes direct communication is preferred to get help and just have a good time with fellow Quakers. In recent times the Discord chat server for QuakeWorld has become very popular among players and even QuakeWorld developers.

Another way of communicating is IRC that has been running since 1996 on the Quakenet network. There's a green box on the bottom of this page which connects you to Quakenet's webchat

Examples of IRC clients

mIRC - Shareware (Windows)
xChat - Free (Multiplatform)

Get set... ready... FRAG!

Finding games; if you installed nQuake you can use ezQuake's build-in serverbrowser. You can also use (and favourite!) QuakeServers.net or MetaQTV (NOTE: MetaQTV only lists servers connected to QTV).

The more direct approach is using IRC. Join #qwrookie and write .qw 1on1 anyone? qw.foppa.dk:27503 (be gentle!) (This sends your message out to every channel that the [ServMe]-bots operate on.) You can also use this on QuakeWorld servers that have ServMe bots spectating.

If you are new here its recommended that you read through game modes which will give you a quick introduction of the most common game modes of todays QuakeWorld.

Don't be a stranger now, pop in to our IRC channels and meet our community. We are always happy to welcome some fresh meat into the scene.
