Bacvkground Image Using Quake.RC

[Pringles Man]

Is it possible to replace the intro demos with just a still image background using scripts in quake.rc? I've been busting my ass over this for quite some time.

remove demos demo1 demo2 demo3 line form the quake.rc or just // comment it out.

Couldn't you just turn off the demos in quake.rc and use a different console background? I know QuakeSpasm displays the console background instead of running demos. DP doesn't, though...so it depends what engine you use.

yes, you can use a custom conback.lmp ; i believe fimg supports lmp

qrack has gl_conback_image cvar that can be a path to a hi-res file.

Kinda counterintuitive that Quake supports video files with no problem, but no one really knows anything practical about still images lol. Thanks.

Your easiest bet is replacing muh_bad.tga with your image, loading up DM2 and staring at the wall with the muh_bad texture, recording it for 3 minutes to demo1.dem.

There might be another with DarkPlaces, but apparently nobody knows, you may or may not be able to derive a way from http://quaketastic.com/files/Quake1ArcadePack.zip

Or maybe not.
