Func_Msgboard: Quake Custom Engines

Posted by Kinn on 2004/10/07 07:13:44

Discuss modified Quake engines here, I guess. What engines do you use? What are the pros/cons of existing engines? What features would you like to see implemented/removed?

FTE 3343 had the software renderer:

So Right Now

What is the best software rendering engine in terms of the ability to play modern maps and faithfulness to the proper DosQuake/WinQuake look?

Aguirre's

In my humble opinion, the WinQuake is in this download is a million light years beyond any other software renderer in polish and faithfulness.

Download: Mark V WinQuake

Can play anything Quakespasm can play including BSP2 maps. Can also play Nehahra, etc.

Set r_wateralpha to 1 if you choose, it defaults to 0.5.

Wow

Mark V is great indeed.

Super8 is also good and has lots of interesting features, but it looks significantly different from vanilla Quake.

The latest release of Engoo is also very good, but I haven't tested it enough and the previous versions had some instabilities.

Mark V Winquake

uuuuunnnngggghhhh...god I love how the textures look in the software renderer....

#395 posted by Baker on 2015/12/27 23:53:36

Load up Zendar or that Koohoo knock off Sock made to see a couple of maps that really accentuate software rendering. ;-)

In Fact ...

You can type:

install zendar1d
game zendar1d

Crashes on Arcane Dimensions tho. If I load the start map, I start riding the lift and kaboom ...

so does the current release build of quakespasm.

#399 posted by Baker on 2015/12/28 01:01:18

Every new SP release these days seems to require new engine limits.

No doubt I'll eventually be checking that out.

I did make the statement before Arcane Dimensions was released. ;-)

Will do...

There is something sublime about what the software renderer does to the colours. It's all so much grittier and creepier.

I played AD using mark v and everything was fine. no crashes or any problems. skill 2.

#402 posted by - on 2015/12/28 04:07:30

I played and tested AD on MarkV and it worked fine. Not the Winquake version I believe... it identifies as v0.99 on the lower right corner of the console.

#403 posted by JneeraZ on 2015/12/28 11:31:06

Ah, I was using the Winquake version ... the regular just outright crashed and wouldn't even start up. Weird.

Does any of those SW engines support 64-bit Linux?

Tried to run on my Ubuntu 64 box, after compiling it, crashed when trying to start a new game. Playing demos works fine, menus work fine as well.
