If you're not interested in colored lights, I suggest stronger shadows where appropiate. Obviously visibility in DM is a concern, but nobody would mind if the ceilings faded to nearly complete darkness.
Maybe even hack AO into q2's light somehow?

Q2 has radiosity. It literally already has the real thing.

i remember trying to compile a map with q1rad a short while ago and it was still slow as hell.... i dunno, but fake radiosity seems like a better option even now.
Wow
That's really nifty.
How'd you do the rain?
Oooh

CZG : "There's supposed to be more of them, and they should have a proper finale, but dammit, I'm so sick and tired of these things. "
Who Cares.
Terra is fine the way it is.
Fifth that looks arousing.

How did you get transparent textures to work?
Quaddy
the transparent colour on the palette is index 255, the peachy coloured one. Also your texture name needs to start with a "{" character for it to be recognised as a masked texture. "{cobweb.pcx" for instance.

Thank you fifthelephant for this information.
Note About Masked Textures
If you use it then for non solid objects like cobwebs make the brush func_illusionary. And for solids make it a func_wall otherwise you may get hom errors etc

You are on a roll. I love the Q2 stuff. Looks very true to the original. Also, are those decals (spiderwebs) in Quake?
Sprony...
Nah, I messed about with ripping them from some Thief FM, converting it to the quake palette etc.
I just wish that quake engines supported having an alpha on a masked texture. But it's not to be :(

Well, you can use a sprite, you just have to bake lighting into it...
