Iraco, thank you! looks pretty good.
looking forward to tga/32 bit version!
fullbright colors are not conserved when upscaling, so these would need an upscaled "glow map"

Picked up Quake 2 again recently (been playing on and off for almost 18 years). I'm using the q2pro setup called nQuake2, similar to nQuake for Quakeworld. Using Clau's pak as well. The textures, environments are all beautiful however.
Going to check those out later, the thing I like about nQuake2 is how it preserves the multiplayer gameplay. Many other setups I've tried lose frames and don't play well in multiplayer at all (Darkplaces and a couple others I've tried for Q2 years and years ago)

in the zip file you will find the file "pak?.pak".
Copy and paste the file in the Quake/id1 directory,
In this directory you probably have already pak0.pak, pak1.pak & pak2.pak
(but you might have more .pak file --> let´s say pak(n).pak).
rename "pak?.pak" in "pak(n+1).pak", so most probably, rename it "pak3.pak".
Run the game.
Don't expect any spectacular change. The difference is very subtile! (see #18)

can anyone reupload the monsters, or a link to an updated version if one exists?

Sorry, I've deleted the files from my dropbox, and also from my hard disk.
It was just a test for evaluating the potentiality of the upscaling tools.
No a real success! The differences were very subtile.
Try to ask Ankh, he might still have a copy.
Cheers
