Retroquad will remain compatible with Quake, although my main focus now is on developing this engine towards creating a commercial indie game.
Quake-specific improvements aren't a priority now, but I'll also work on them from time to time.

People are expressing opinions. It's OK. You don't have to try and shut it down.

But that filter sure is impressive in its own right.

I generally dislike (...) high-res texture packs
I'm surprised, because you seemed to like those I made for Cepheus.
I like that the filter is skewed like N64 mipmapping

Hence the word "generally".
Funnily Enough.

The world being made up of lots of little visible squares isn't fucking realistic either you shitcunts.
As long as the option to switch pixellation off is there, who cares tho??

I don't understand the fascination with writing software renderers with "modern" features. I mean, this has been done in the Unreal 1 and Unreal 2 engine, and also done in that old Pixomatic thing from RAD Game Tools:

Unless, of course, you like heroic coding:

But it's not innovation in any way.

Not everything is done to innovate or profit. Sometimes it's just for pure enjoyment. Folks 'round here call it a 'hobby'.
Testing Stuff
Now I'm doing some detailing here and there with my map on the more finished areas I decided to experiment with phong shading again -

That makes my phong erect but FFS enable anti aliasing already.
Fantastic Looks Awesome

Well Phong Innit.

No point moaning about anti-aliasing with non-GL Quake surely??

I don't understand the fascination with writing hardware renderers with "oldschool" features. I mean, this has been done in other engines.
Unless, of course, you like lazy coding.
But it's not innovation in any way.

Sorry for the trolling, but it's impossible to demotivate me. I just don't care about such arguments. I'm used to them.
Ah Mankrip
I see what you did there. I used to use anti-aliasing in my quake all the time but it does tend to look smudged when I posed a JPEG online so I decided against it to get a little sharpness in my images.
Twice In A Row Apparently.
