Rygels texture pack

[och]

The original Rygels texture pack thread is closed, so I figured I ask the question here.

I downloaded the pack, but when I copy the pk3 file to id1 folder within my quake folder nothing happens. It only works when I unpack the file. Is this how its meant to work?

P.S. Running darkplaces engine.

Hello och,

I told you we will meet again
Didnt you read my post here ?

It says:



The issue that you currently encounter is only ONE issue from old Darkplaces builds. Use a newer one and it will magically work.

Thank you, its working now. It turns out that the version of darkplaces that came with the "ultimate patch" that I had is from 2010. The textures are now working with the 2011 patch that you recommended, as well as 2014 latest, and even the beta latest release from 2016.

And I have the feeling that you will encounter many more on your way into a world of bling-bling Quake

People will show up and say: "Hey, dont use that old Rygel crap. Use the much better texture XX and the much better model YY and whoow, why dont you use the amazing ZZ effects ... "

So, be prepared

Good luck with your "HD" Quake.

Certainly will try some other HD mods, who doesn't love eye candy?

As long as you do not want to use new features and only want to play good old Quake, keep it if you need the performance.
If you encounter issues/bugs you can consider to download and use a new one (20140513 is a good choice then).
