Quake 1 & 3 Pandora Questions

[jastolze]

Hi. I just downloaded zquake, the Quake 1 Port by Pickle, but I'm not quite sure if it supports mods, like Killer Quake Pack, Quake 1 Arena, or other Frikbot mods. If it does, could you be kind enough to explain how to get it to work? I tried the -game command, but it still asks me to select the pak files, instead of taking me to the game itself. I do happen to have the full version, so I know that's not a problem. Also, for quake 3, I wanted to know why the console doesn't allow custom commands, like devmap. I tried binding it to the "g" button on the keyboard, and it restarted the map, but when I tried binding "h" to /give all, it said unknown cmd. I get an error tty command or something like that... I looked that specific error up, and it said that setting ttycon to "1" would enable commands, but haven't tried it yet. Also, it could be a port error or something. Please, if you have any info, it would be appreciated.
P.S: How do you get OpenArena to work? It wouldn't let me select it from the mod menu???

Maybe PM pickle and pass him the url of this thread, to get his attention.

Whethor mods are supported or not, and to what degree, depends on a few things, but I very much forget. I seem to recall q1 uses quake-c and so mods should work, but I'm not an expert on Quake

I apologize for bumping this thread, but I didn't want to have to re-open another one since the questions are almost the same.
My question is to Pickle, or anyone who helped port Quake 3 to the Pandora: When I attempt to type in a console command, or choose a mod from the mod menu, it says "quake 3 stdin is not a tty, tty console mode failed" Not sure exactly what that means, but I've read that it's a known lixux issue. I did look up something in the source code, in unix_main.c it states the following:

00480 Com_Printf("stdin is not a tty, tty console mode failed\n");
00481 Cvar_Set("ttycon", "0");
00482 ttycon_on = qfalse;
00483 return;

If you wanted to see the whole thing, look here: http://www.nanobit.net/doxy/quake3/unix__main_8c-source.html
It starts on line 480.

If someone could tell me if this is fixable, it would be appreciated!
