Interesting information, I was just messing with the q2test coincidentally trying to see what was different in the paks. What's interesting is that the Quake2 damage/health face was very well implemented in the test and for some odd reason they removed it from the release. Here I pulled out all the images of the face from the pak file, they must of spent some time drawing it all.
I noticed BFG was called disintegrator (based on the icon) and there is a completely different weapon for the actual BFG, I cannot even figure out what the icon is supposed to be of. They also had goggles icon for an item,
Yeah, like Dervish said, I'd be happy to upload it to my TS webspace and make a page for it. If you'd like to design a special page yourself and have me upload it, I could do that too. Lemme know.
I'm assuming the new rockets and grenades would pass with Anticheat, right? You didn't modify the models themselves? If they are "unknown" modified models, even if they aren't spiked, AC won't recognize them as legit.
Thanks for the offer but that's okay I have 2 mirrors now.
The models are original only the skins are different, however there is a modified explosion model which basically removes the explosion inside the pak. I didn't make it however.
Here is also a comparison between the icons, I tried to keep the icons some what similar especially in their positioning.
When is the mega health icon ever used, when i run over a mega health it shows the i_health icon both in r1q2 and regular quake2? Any clue, I swear I have seen the mega health icon at some point. Also when do u ever see the blaster ammo icon?
While making this I realized that the hyperblaster models have a different handle position one facing away from the player and one toward the player. I made the icon based on the first person view model, facing away from the player. Here is a screenshot:
I made a new Pak file for Quake2, most icons are made from scratch while others used screenshots and resizing/modifying.
Nearly every Quake2 icon was recreated. I didn't remake the k_ icons but did make them fit the theme by adding a black border. There are number of variations of the i_health (skull) icon in the pak. Some of the icons are in PNG format, you will need a Quake2 client that supports PNGs. You can do whatever you want with this pak (modify, re-release, etc). Mention of my name would be nice but not necessary.
