Hi,  I'm having trouble starting up Generations.  After I try to start Generations, it gives me an error saying: "User Interface is version 6, expected 3" in the console.

I've installed Q3 Arena along with the 1.32 point release.  After that, I installed the Generations setup "e" and then the "f" update.

Can anyone help me out?  Thanks!

Version 6 is the correct UI_API_VERSION value for Generations Arena.  It should not be expecting version 3 at all.  It sounds like something is set in baseq3's q3config.cfg that might be interfering with the User Interface load for Gen.  Are you starting Generations using a shortcut, or the "mods" menu?  Double check your console in Quak3 III Arena to be sure it's reporting version 1.32 just in case the patch didn't install properly.  Also, if you could let me know the contents of the following files:

generations/autoexec.cfg
generations/q3config.cfg

I'll do what I can to get you up and running.  Thanks.

It looks like your q3config is from an older version of Q3.  cl_cdkey isn't used anymore, the key being stored in the q3key in baseq3.  I took the liberty of remarking out the key value so nobody tries to swipe it, so the *********** value is my doing.  That's not a misprint on your part.

It sounds like your quake3 install did not update properly when you applied the 1.32 patch.  You may have the proper pk3 files in baseq3, but everything is pointing to an older version of the executable trying to load a newer version of the user interface.  A quick way to find out if your Q3 executable version is correct is to start up Quake 3 Arena and watch the blue console screen.  The very first line it prints should be this:

Q3 1.32 win-x86 Oct  7 2002

If the console goes away too fast to read it, create a shortcut to Quake3.exe with the following arguments:

"C:Your Quake3 Folderquake3.exe" +set dedicated 1

Where "Your Quake 3 Folder" is wherever you have Quake 3 installed.  Run the shortcut.  Once the console stops printing text, scroll all the way to the top and read the first line.  If the slider misbehaves try clicking the space above the slider until it reaches the top and it'll stay put (if you drag it, it will drop back to the bottom as soon as you release the mouse button).  If the first line is something other than "Q3 1.32 win-x86" with some kind of date, then the executable is the wrong version and you need to reinstall the patch for sure.
