if com_zonemegs is like the old -zone command in quake it's used to allocate memory for large config scripts to load which otherwise can cause crashs.

just to be clear i am talking about gl-quake.exe or gl-fuhquake.exe ... i can't remember the commands for the original quake.exe :P

for gl-quake it's -mem command to allocate memory to the game... i set -mem 32 for 32mbs of ram. it's commandline.

if you mean q3a... you just put seta com_hunkMegs "256" in your config file... should be in q3config by default i think.

in the command line of the pif is the path ie; "D:\games\quake.exe" then -x params preceded with minus. for mem if you got v9 or above use -winmem 32 with those -width 800 -height 600 -bpp 16 -listen -[foldername for mod]... within the quotes yah?
