Quake PAK not loading

[fpscan]

Quake from Steam version(https://steamdb.info/depot/2311/) not loading.

• Correct folder dir (id1/pak0.pak etc.)
• Latest core f627174 v0.62
• d11/vulkan/gl
• RetroArch 1.9.5
• Windows 10

However PAK from Shareware is working fine.

1st mission pack and 2st mission pack is loading fine when you have following structure, however Quake is still not loading with non-shareware.

id/PAK0.PAK
id/PAK1.PAK
hipnotic/pak0.pak
rogue/pak0.pak

If I can remember, it matters about the case of the PAK files (I think).

I had the full version of Quake with the PAK files being pak0.pak and pak1.pak and I had to rename them to uppercase just like the shareware version PAK0.PAK and PAK1.PAK. Also try using the glcore video driver.

Another thing you could try is downloading the standalone tyrquake and try placing the tyrquake.pak in the id1 directory as well.

zip the id1 folder then load the archive it should work
