Quake Reforged Project

[Seven]

Hello DeadTenor and webangel,

It is always nice to see different interpretations and variations.
That is exactly what we need. So everybody can pick the ones they like the most. There is no doubt that every version has its own flair.

Thank you !

In the end, I want to point out Nergals great talent.
Your work is so detailed and complex that it allows a lot of modification by others.

... I'm trying to finish this alternative version, that for a reason or another doesn't appear well ingame.

Very nice !
One thing popped into my mind though:
Did he shave his hairs himself with a rusty knife ?
(cause he cuts himself several times)

Wonderful details on his arms/legs and "pants" !

Kind regards,
Seven

Absolutely. I want to thank the modders, artists, programmers, and others in the community that are able to inject fresh blood into older games and bring them design changes so that people who are old school (and even brand new to the game) enjoyment.

Little tweaks like this allow people with different tastes and needs more of a choice in what flavor they want the game.

Also--- Nergal has some real talent. I wish I had that level of skill. By the way, is that a John Constantine Hellblazer reference in the name, Nergal?

Yep!

Hi, is the Reforged project dead? Why isn't the website updated???

[talisa]

making good textures takes a loooong time.
its not something you just do in a few minutes.

making textures of the extremely high level of reforged takes a long time

so be patient i say

.

i dun think theres any reason yet to believe this project is dead

It's just that I've discovered the SoA & DoA packs only today (lame me!) and some of the screenshots have the weapon models from reforged that I also couldn't find on the website (the last post is dated 2010). These are the only reasons I thought the project might be dead

[talisa]

@hgdagon
which screenshots are you referring too? i know a lot of stuff,
so if i happen to know which weapons those are i could point you to those models.

.

also, i unno why the site hasnt been updated in so long. as far as i can remember it never got updated once in the time ive been around quakeone *shrugs*

@splitterface
Here it is. I noticed it because it looked just like this picture from the Reforged website http://quakeone.com/reforged/Armory/lsnail1.jpg are the Reforged weapons available for download? I found the thread!! it's WebAngel's animated weapons, but all the links are down((( Do you have webangel's animated?

[talisa]

ah yes, ive seen that version of the sng and lava.sng before a couple times.

however i am afraid i dun have that version, and i wouldnt know where you could get that model

ah thats good that you found it yourself. afraid however i couldnt help you with where to find this version of that model.
mebbe if you're lucky perhaps someone else on the forums happens to have it and could upload it for you

@Nergal:
It's a good idea to visually distinguish the multi-grenade Ogre more from its "normal" counterpart. This was some kinda issue with the original textures. Basically you could hardly tell which Ogre you were facing before you were getting his grenades into your face. Great to see that upcoming highres skins might fix this.

Hello Nergal,
any news with Quake Reforged?

[Nergal]

Hello everyone, I pop out from my hideout to catch up a little, so I'll try to be as detailed as possible, before returning in lurker-mode

Hi, is the Reforged project dead? Why isn't the website updated???

Sorry, it takes time, not much but still too much
I want to do a proper update when I'll finish all monster skins for quake and exp- packs, so I can call it a closed chapter and continue with items skins and enviro textures.
More than anything, it's not fair to raise expectations with just news, when the real meat is late to come!

Not that high level to be honest, also not "super time consuming". Really, the main problem is the lack of time to work properly and costantly
The only thing I can say is it will be completed, despite even the fact that in the meantime other better stuff appeared ... great community, to say the least!

eh, good question! the answer? who knows!
I remember I've done a few tests with animated skins for weapons, but I'm not sure if they were released or what.
Actually I planned to do weap skins, but since there are fantatic stuff out there already, I'm afraid I can't compete maybe I should hire them haha

Yeah, can't agree more, still a "faithfull" is planned... for the purists

I´m sooooo glad to read your post Nergal...

[talisa]

agree with webangel, its good to hear from you and to see you say you didnt abandon the project

it was so long that you posted anything that a lot of people were starting to think the project was dead. so its great to hear you didnt abandon it and are still working on it


totally cant wait to see more stuff you make, your textures are always truely amazing and of excellent quality and they fit perfectly into quake <3
