What kind of Quake player model do you want?

@Cherry: I do the modeling, texturing and animation, but sound is not really my field of expertise. Maybe you could do the sound .

We need new player models that have big sticks that come out of all directions of the player.

Or make giant kittens. That'd be bad ass

I have a set of high quality female player sounds that were made in the 1990s somehow altering the originals. Of the however many players sounds (30?), about 27-28 of them are dead-on good.

I'll locate them.

Homebrew level of today is 10x of 1996. This can go for gfx or sound.

To offer the same functionality as many modern games it might be nice to have an in-built facility to select a number of different player models. Some years ago the multiskin mod went some way to achieving this using skins rathr than models and allowed you to switch through different skins, such as a Storm Trouper, Duke Nukem Guy, Hulk, Predator, Superman, Captain Picard, etc, within Quake using a simple impulse. One can occassionally see examples of these in action on one of Polarites server. Rook did a similar thing with teamskins within QRack which also worked well.

Now if your modelling skills could be used to produce an up to date "model pack" that could added to or changed, by dropping model files in to a directory in a similar way to UT, to suit ones own preference and Rook\Baker would agree to use their coding skills to include the functionality within their clients it would certainly add a fresh dimension to the game.

Just my two cents worth

Kind regards

Interesting idea. It sounds pretty cool. I'll do the main player model first though, and then we can take it from there.

In which case to satisfy the purists you can't stray too far from the path of the basic quake marine model so something like this might be a good place to start...
