Now you just need overly saturated colored lighting, N64-thick fog, obnoxious specular lighting, myopic bloom and abyssal normalmaps to make everything caked in vaseline and raise hell.
Happy? A bunch of new screenshots at QuakeOne (and Twitter).
HD textures does have some significant impact on the framerate. d_mipscale 2 helps to recover the framerate, but anyway, those textures are huge. More mipmap levels are needed. <Shambler> finished solus project
<Shambler> made no sense to me at all <Shambler> nice to see ur name in the credits <Shambler> it was okay overall <Shambler> some interesting vibes, some good mysterious / creepy bits <Shambler> but far too long and far too many hexagonal rocks <Shambler> i'm going to see a neurosurgeon to see if there is someway they can burn all visual acknowledgment of hexagons out of my mind Plenty of it in Iceland. https://www.google.com.au/search?q=iceland+columnar+basalt&safe=off&tbm=isch
I knew the famous Giants Causeway in Northern Ireland (pictured on Led Zeppelin's Houses of the Holy cover art) but I thought it was a unique formation and I wasn't aware of similar sceneries existing in Iceland as well.

Version 2016/10/11: * Added support Variable FPS on clients/servers based on Q2Pro (crussial for Plasma Beam and Chaingun) * Plasma Beam ported from Ground Zero (Rogue) with the following characteristics (to see the weapon model itself, please, copy pak0.pak from "rogue" folder into the "empire" folder with name pak8.pak): - Rate Of Fire: 2400 (per minute) - Damage: 4 per shot - Ammo Consumption: 0.5 cell per shot - Range: 768 units - Behavior at Q2 10FPS ordinary server/client: 16 damage per shot, 2 cells per shot consumed * Health behavior: - Initial HP is 125 - Health reduced by 1 every 1.0s, provided that current HP value is greater then 100 - Reduction rate is delayed by 1.5s after Stimpack (item_health_small) was picked up - Reduction rate is delayed by 5.0s after Mega Health (item_health_mega) was picked up - Absolute HP maximum is 200, none of health items can be picked up at this value * Armor behavior: - Armor reduced by 1 every 1.5s, provided that armor value is greater then maximum value of current armor type (situation with Armor Shard) - Reduction rate is delayed by 1.5s after Armor Shard (item_armor_shard) was picked up - Absolute armor maximum is 150% of maximum value of current armor type, Armor Shard can not be picked up after this value * CG (Chaingun) changes: - Damage value per bullet is 7 now (was 6) - Spread is reduced by 10% * MG (Machinegun) changes: - Damage value per bullet is 6 now (was 7) - Spread is reduced by 60% * Added auto-jump ability * For testing purpose (like DM in Warsow, FFA is totally another thing there), all players are spawned with all weapons (except BFG10K) and ammo Current build is coming with Q2Pro built with Variable FPS and Anti Cheat (Server-Side) support. Both, x86 and x86_64, builds for Windows are provided. To launch game, please, use ".CMD" launchers instead of ".EXE" directly. To install this version, please, delete your previous "empire" folder. Version 2016/10/11: * New hit sounds based on damage amount or kill * Announcer messages Version 2016/10/07: * 125 points of initial health * Lowering the level of health points to 100 if the current level is greater than the maximum, not only when a player has a Mega Health * Quick weapon switching * Hit sounds for better feedback to an attacker Are the graininess and sieve effect caused by your 8-bit conversion? The grain could be cool, like a filter of sorts, but the sieve looks weird IMHO.
hey boys doing my yearly 1on1/2on2 map creation. Here's what I have so far:

Mugwump: The graininess is caused by multiple stages of dithering from several different parts of the renderer. The sieve effect is due to the palette. The closer to the palette a 32-bit image is, the more balanced the colors gets (example). #14014: I've tried this once, and it didn't look good. At first it worked well, when I was using only one 2x2 kernel for the texture and another 2x2 kernel for the lighting, but once things got more complex it got too distracting. @mankrip: I might be wrong, but that sounds like it might be due to the noise distribution. You perhaps could try "blue noise" as described in the two articles below. Though I have no idea how well that would map to software Quake's case, looks great either way :)
