I Know this Sounds Daft, but....

Just did a format, and my Q2 folder was about the only thing I forget to
put in my other partition (dozy bastard), so reinstalling everything
etc.

Now, its been a while since I've done this so, when you install CTF, do
put it as its own folder within q2 or does it go in the baseq2 folder?

CTF should go in the ctf folder under Quake2. I don't remember if you have
control of the desination path when you install it or not. The folder
should contain a couple of .cfg files, pak0.pak, ctf2.ico, gamex86.dll and a
readme.txt.

The ctf mod was included with one of the q2 updates.

Cheers George, done that but for some reason I can't find q2ctf1-8
(alright I know they're old but I like to play them from time to time.
Should be in pak1.pak, right?

Ta everyone, got it sorted, even managed to get the bots sorted. One
more question, anyone know the commands for the bots to invade the enemy
base, defend the flag etc? Tried planetquake but without success.
