WinQuake accesses your computer's hardware through Windows APIs. It includes support for DirectX 3.0 and up, and VESA VBE video modes, if available. WinQuake is not 3D accelerated like [[GLQuake]]; it looks and runs just like [[QUAKE.EXE|the DOS engine]], but has more video modes which you can access via the Options menu in the game. It also lets you choose between running full-screen or in a window. It removes support for serial and modem-to-modem networking. | WinQuake accesses your computer's hardware through Windows APIs.
