Guide for installation?
Is this from the developers page not sufficient?
"Quake2
Seems that a nasty defect slipped to the initial release, the game might not work correctly on all languages. If you are having problems to get the game up and running, change the phone language to english.
1. get hold of suitable datafile (original cd or shareware/demo)
1.1 if you have n95-1, update the firmware to atleast 2.x.x otherwise it does not have enough memory.
2. install P.I.P.S and the QuakeII engine. If the phone complains something about the certificate, check your settings in application manager. It should be configured to allow installation of all sis files.
3. install datafiles (using for example the usb-mass storage mode)
3.1 create "quake2" folder in the root folder of your memory card.
3.2 inside "quake2" folder, create another folder "baseq2"
3.3 now copy the pak file(s), video folder and players directory from the original cd to "baseq2" folder. If you have only the shareware file, put it to "baseq2" folder. NOTE: with shareware .pak, the screen will stay black for about 30 secs
4. (optional) install audio tracks
4.1 create "cdaudio" folder in "quake2" folder
4.2 copy exactly 10 audio tracks (mp3) to cdaudio folder and name them 1.mp3 through 10.mp3. If you don't have all the tracks correctly named there, cdaudio wont't play
5. command line parameters can be set through "cmdline.q2" file which should be placed to "quake2" folder. The file should be saved as ASCII, and only the 1024 first characters of the first line are read."

OK, I installed it according to instructions on my hacked N82 (V20 firmware, its a black one so it came with that pre-installed, nice). It works perfectly, no problems whatsoever.
So, there is either a software conflict for you, or you missed one instruction somewhere...
If you have the full PC version of quake 2 there are some folders there that should not be copied over (only copy the ones mentioned), so that could one thing.
You should install everything BUT the game files to your phone memory (and I think you also need python installed to your phone memory - make sure its the latest version of python, I believe they fixed some issues for N82 and python in that iteration). Install the quake 2 folder to your memory card.
Hope something there is a help...
