    Make Quake Great Again

    right from the get-go i noticed there are a couple textures which seem to have problems with being slightly tranparent while they shouldnt which causes the brushes behind them to be visible through them

    in the start-map, there's metal9_3


    and in the first map, there are palmetal12_3


    and palmetal12_2


    .

    remove the alpha from them and make the textures 100% opaque to fix this
    .
    are you curious about what all there is out there in terms of HD content for quake?

    everything that is out there for quake and both mission-packs, compiled into one massive thread

      Oh, I've forgot to write about this problem, I'm aware but forgot it. How do I remove the alpha in those textures? I'm quite noobie I know

        simplest way is to convert them to another file-format and then back to tga

          It works, thanks! Update in the first post. I think that some low quality textures can be improved by taking parts of QRP textures. I would like to add a nicer sky for last level and have transparent blood. I've wanted to make also high quality blood, I've tried to change color to DP pretty water slime from greed to red but it's still greenish, I think i have to edit some values but don't know which, maybe I have to ask in the the DP pretty water thread the reason.

            That is exactly what talisa does for the Quoth and Drake level textures.

            An darkplaces "Pretty Blood Liquid pack" for Insomnia maps has already been done. Drop me a pm if you are interested.

            Best wishes,

                as far as i remember the original insomnia levels weren't compiled to support transparent water. if anyone interested in recompiled version just tell and i upload it.

                  You read my mind, I was asking for a way to have also HD water. Well, at this point, I'm more than intersted!

                    I'd kill to have this waterfall effect applied to bloodfalls in Insomnia

                      This is a compilation that IronWarfare made of several DP pretty water versions. I think also webangels hipnotic blood version has been used in some way.
                      I hope you like it: click.

                      Now when jakub uploads his vised maps (he has those super-fast-multithread-vis-tool-magics) everything should be good

                        Very thanks for the DP Pretty Blood. I've found the thread about it but no link. It would be even more awesome if you can see red when underwater (or underblood if you prefer) instead of transparent like standard water. Is possible to do?

                          'cause it looks like people are interested in having transparent water in insomnia. well.. i revised all insomnia levels years ago and now you can have them too.

                          enjoy

                          EDIT> i forgot to include any reame.txt, but i guess you all know what to do with those files. just open pak0.pak in insomnia folder and replace the original files with the new ones.

                            Great! I've just edit the DP pretty blood, by putting the pk3 file in the main id1 folder now it supports more maps and episodes: Insomnia, Func_mapjam3 (Zerstorer theme) Zerstorer, Quoth maps, Nyarlatothep when you play them. If you know other maps that uses blood, let me know. I would like to know how to edit the blood to make it more opaque (similar to slime) and red even when you are underwater.

                              Yes, it is. Via v_cshift command.

                              You can create a tiny little mod that use stuffcmd v_cshift when player is completely in water. It can look something like this:

                              Default water view:


                              Blood water view:


                              Do the same with slime (green) or whatever liquid you want...

                              As always:
                              If you want to know how something works, open the files you just downloaded and read their content. Otherwise you will not know. Learning from samples is the best way to learn.

                              In your special case:
                              DP pretty water´s backbone is the dp shader: dp_water
                              This is how to use it:
                              dp_water <reflectmin> <reflectmax> <refractdistort> <reflectdistort> <refractr> <refractg> <refractb> <reflectr> <reflectg> <reflectb> <alpha>
                              Read more details in your "darkplaces.txt" directly in your Quake folder (it comes with Darkplaces zip file). But it is maybe best to further discuss this topic in the DP water thread.

                              Have fun tinkering,
