For maps just put the pk3 files into your tremulous base folder, or ~/.tremulous/base

By "patch" I assume you mean applying patches to the tremulous source. Do an apt-get build-dep tremulous to install the tremulous dependencies then grab an SVN checkout with an "svn co svn://svn.icculus.org/tremulous/trunk tremulous-svn -r xxx" where xxx is the revision number you want. 755 is 1.10. Apply your patch(es) then compile away.

cd to where you put the trem source,
patch -p0 <./path/to/patch
make
Any maps not in the MG repo?  Email me or come to irc.freenode.net/#mg.

If you just want to play tremulous then there is no need to compile any patches. Just download and install one of the improved clients and everything will be fine.

About patching, i've been trying to patch a QVM and i've been getting an error:

Code: [Select]
$ patch -p0 < ./NERO_QVM.patch
m.AllocationBase 0x0, m.BaseAddress 0x715B0000, m.RegionSize 0xD0000, m.State 0x10000
C:\msys\1.0\bin\patch.exe: *** Couldn't reserve space for cygwin's heap (0x715B0000 <0x1560000>) in child, Win32 error 0

and yes, i'm using NERO's patch file until i get it to work  :-\
