@qmaster - for cutscenes I used the CaptureCameraKit from the Vision level. A bit slow but I'll check this one out.
The weaponsteal code is a good link, thanks for that.

@shamblernaut - desaturate, colorize, qpal was the best way the go.
It looks good now 

I was checking out the screenshots and wound up in the source directory. There were a lot of images. I didn't want to keep clicking back and forth between the source directory and the links so, I made a simple slideshow that scrapes the directory for image links.

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_b1AzSsfZ8xbkVqUGZxY0otNTg

instructions to start
1)download and unzip the above link to your documents directory (or any directory that is not the desktop. Otherwise, your system will complain about permissions with connecting to quaketastic remotely and will not honor permissions)
2)either open the standalone player I included, click "file" and select Quaketastic_Screens.swf or right click Quaketastic_Screens.swf and "open with" the provided standalone player (or any other standalone player you may have or need to download if you aren't on windows)

How to use:
Left Arrow Key = previous image
Right Arrow Key = next image

How it works (internally...if you want to know):
1) The entire directory is scraped of all image paths and those paths are pushed into an array
2) The first index of the array is automatically downloaded, pushed to the lib and displayed
3)every time you press right or left the library is checked. If the image exists it is displayed. If it doesn't exist it is downloaded, pushed to the library and displayed.

Basically the images are downloaded as you first request them. Past that it is just traversing the library. I'm telling you this because, if you have limited bandwidth this is potentially a terrible solution for you to view the images with.

I may make this better one day. It pretty much has zero features beyond previous/next image. 

Numerous upgrades and polish. Included READ_ME explains everything.

Creative and atmospheric. Some proportions don't seem quite right but already as a beta version it's inspiring. Nice one. 

gonna play this later tonight. 

I was just trying to find this the other night since I remembered the screenshots. Didn't realize it wasn't released yet.

Love the upsidedownness. I need to test this later if I have time but...too many releases lately (not a bad thing!). 

is growing over my hat.

Cool shots madfox, screen 3 (dust) just screams madfox to me haha.

Looking forward to more! 

has put up a page for his beta here. 

Nice screenshots! 

Bad news - haven't finished AD_Sepulcher.

Good news - mapping instead.

noclip.

That looks fantastic! Great vibes with the red lighting 

Thanks! It's about a 10-15 minute playthrough map. I am very close to finishing it. Need to refine skill 2 and 3 then some cosmetic things. So close! 

They're looking good, yhe1!

I'm playing though the first levels, and it is quiet an atractive mod.
Looking at the packed file, I think I'm not the first one who wonders, how to get grip on these rather unusual bin files? 

What mod? Someone did Chasm The Rift mod? 

 

If you are talking about the models, I am not sure they can be extracted because they are in an unknown format.

The following link is the closes I found

https://www.doomworld.com/vb/xwe/52039-xwe-and-chasm-the-rift/ 

and also this site

http://www.angelfire.com/games6/chasm/transformers_chasm.htm 

That's a hint in the good direction.
I didn't realize using dosbox had already created an extra map with further info about the game.

It looks as if this mod is more for win98, or better MSDOS. Most of the addons won't like winxp. The mapeditor looks like an early version of the first doom editors I remember. Rather kinky because there are no faq's.

Transferring all to my old computer, see how far I can get. I didn't know they made addons for this mods too. I wonder what I can extract. 

Maybe this link can help you as well

While trying to unzip the chasmmap editor I chunked on an error.
Just tinkering a bit with the ventilation shaft.
Hard to get the velocity right, as quake uses 0.1 sec /frame.
Not bad afterall, see what I can do.

The wad is just the start of the ventilation shaft.
It is slow, I know.

Nice vent.
