Can I run Quake on the same machine as QSmack?
You can run QSmack on any machine that you can run a regular Quake client from. You can, for example, run QSmack on the machine that is running the server, but you can’t run it from a machine while you are playing on that same machine. Basically, Quake doesn’t allow two clients to connect with the same IP address. It just won’t work. Note: don’t get QSmack itself confused with the frontend. The frontend can run on any machine with an internet connection, including the machine you are playing Quake on. But since the network traffic to the frontend may slow down your Quake game, we don’t recommend that you run the frontend while you’re actually playing. We’re thinking about giving the frontend a “sleep mode” to address this problem.
