Add OpenArena autodetection #277

Open Calinou opened 2 months ago

Calinou commented 2 months ago

I'd like to be able to extract Quake3 binaries into an OpenArena installation (with its baseoa folder) and have it launch automatically, without having to specify launch parameters through a start menu option or similar. Could this be implemented by checking for the presence of a baseoa folder if no baseq3 folder is found in the CWD?

For reference, these are the launch options I use to make Quake3e fully functional with OpenArena and its mods:

+set fs_basegame baseoa +set protocol 71 +set sv_master1 "dpmaster.deathmask.net" +set sv_master2 "" +set sv_master3 ""

Its the launch script used for the Flatpak I maintain (openarena quake3e - https://flathub.org/apps/io.github.ec_.Quake3e.OpenArena)
