QDemo2 Production Guide: Introduction

QDemo2 is a multi-zone interactive mini-game demo featuring a player-controllable character, doors, switches, creatures, combat, shader and lighting effects, ambient and spot effect audio and cut scene scripting. The demo is structured as a game with a menu screen and closing credits. The content was originally built for Xbox, and has not been optimized for PS2, although it still runs effectively.

QDemo2 is located at samples/demos/qdemo2.
  The description file can be read here.
  The source code can be browsed here and is available here.
The QStudio project file is available here.
  The Q files are available here.
  The art assets are available here.

The QDemo2 art assets are not installed by the same installer as Q because of their size. They come in the QMedia installer available here. You need to install it if you want to build the QDemo2 data from the art assets.
