Func_Msgboard: Why Not Use Q3 Bsp For Q1 Sp

Posted by gone on 2005/10/11 05:10:10

It's possible to load q3 bsp in darkplaces, and play the normal quake game.
I dont think anyone have used this possibility (zombie had tried, but didnt release afaik)

IMHO its a good way to overcome quake map/compiler limits and bring advanced graphics to q1. And darkplaces is pretty stable and powerfull engine that can be tuned to run pretty fast even on old cards (like GF1)
Why not?

Yeah, I think so. Try Darkplaces or FTE.

This is a pretty good find Spirit, thanks for the link.

So "no light styles" isn't strictly true. Hmm.

as dp only has basic shader support, i guess these aren't supported?
