To stop the huge particles it is necessary to 'disable' the GL_EXT_point_parameters extension, which quake likes but we implement only in software. Remove that string from the FX driver extensions list & quake will fall back to using multi-textured triangles to represent large points. If you have a 1-tmu voodoo card, you also have to manually turn off multitexturing the same way. (This is done automatically in my uncommitted development version). In my development tree I have a config. file mechanism which allows you to set up named configurations which enable/disable extensions and set default values for hints. Thus my quake2 config looks like this: (this isn't relevent to your case, just trivial info) ;; Turn off some compliance for the sake of speed. ;; (config-mesa quake2 ( ;; Quake2 likes this extension, but it really hurts performance if ;; you don't also disable software fallbacks, below.
