High resolution 32 bit texture pak compilation

[|iR|Focalor]

The screens really don't do the textures justice.  The modulate/intensity levels you have there make everything look pale.  The intensity filter is particularly evil, it basically halves your color range with the default value of 2.0.

Have you thought about doing away with intensity and adding proper brightness/contrast?  I have code for this right here, it also includes a saturation filter, as well as monochrome and inversion controls:

http://jdolan.dyndns.org/trac/browser/quake2world/src/r_image.c#L281

This code is now available in the latest R1GL with set gl_texture_lighting_mode "1"

Do you have any screenshots showing what the difference is, kind of like the ones you posted in the original post?

R1GL FTW!!! R1CH for President!!!

Great job on this texture pak. I have noticed a conciderable difference on everymap so far.
Thnx

Nice!

So R1 there would still be a metric assload of other textures to replace to cover the rest of gloom: e1u2 through e3u2?

I tried both,  still prefer it 'pale'


Dunno if it was trying that setting and going back,  or the latest r1q2 update..  but particle effects seemed a bit different
distracting for the first game or 2 but couldn't put my finger on exactly what it is about them.

hey r1ch man... GREAT stuff i absolutely love it, looks amazing on every one of those maps.... except rdm2

basically i took my mostly clean egl client, put this pak in, and copied the bsp files over from my r1q2 client... they all look very sexeh, EXCEPT q2rdm2, it looks absolutely horrid :/ the textures arent laying right or anything... its making me kinda sad honestly, any idea what the problem could be?

What does it look like? Mine looks fine:

i have a screenshot but its .tga :/ any cvar to change egl to take screenshots in png or jpg?

[R1CH]

EGL might not be doing texture scaling. I'm not sure how it uses hi-res textures.

well all the other maps look awesome :/ thats the weird part

Vae, you can use this to open .tga and save them as other formats like .jpg and .png:
It's freeware.

It looks like its not scaling the textures down which is confusing me because all the other maps look absolutely amazing, heres a pic

Yep EGL isn't doing texture scaling. Not much you can do about that unfortunately (other than switch to R1Q2!), it's just the way the map was designed - all the textures are 50% stretched and EGL doesn't apply this to the hi-res replacements.

thats very sad i guess the pak isnt for me then because i only use high res textures with egl, my r1q2 i use the stock textures because thats just how i like to play when im being competitive

thanks anyway r1ch

What settings are you using? Looks like I really have no natural light source or shadows. I don't really want the shadows on entities like players and ammo boxes, those look kinda crappy. Looks like you have them off.

Your gl_modulate is too high.
