I've heard that the main go-to way to play Quake 2 on modern operating systems is with the Yamagi source port. Since I've managed to get Quake 1's soundtrack playing in its vanilla state by playing around a bit with the files (base game only, no such luck with the expansion packs), I've tried to do the same for Quake 2 and I still hear no music. I've only had music playing when Yamagi is installed.
Not that I have anything against source ports, but is there any way to get Quake 2's soundtrack playing in its vanilla state or do I have to use Yamagi or other source ports?
