The 200 texels height limit was likely poorly planned, since id software themselves raised it later.
Any open source software-rendered Quake engine is based on the WinQuake version of the source, so there's no problem. Maybe it's only the DOS Quake 1.0 version that has this limit.
The official mission packs also included an update for the executable, since they required several engine modifications (network protocol, HUD and so on). The raised limit for MDL skins may have also been implemented because of them.
The inside of the shambler's mouth isn't fully black in my engine� that's probably due to the texture filter. But I liked the result, it looks a bit like the saliva in the Doom 3 hell knight's mouth.
Kinda Intended When Filtered Indeed.

Yea filtering does look like spittle strands. But yes I am glad folks like the result! So Preach regarding the animation group... will it just play regardless of where I put it in the MDL for the Vore idle addition?

Awesome work. This shambler shamblers more than the original. Seriously, it has more of the monster. Kudos.
This Looks Awesome.

Awesome model by the way. Looks like a fucking Shambler. In fucking Quake.

Any more juicy screenshots out there from folks enjoying the update? :)
I Love It :-)

It is great. My only nitpick is that the original seemed fatter/blobby where in this remake you can see his waist :-)

Fantastic work Skiffy!
Absolutely brooding beast of scary white fur proportions!
I'll try to remember to take a screen the next time I encounter this monstrosity!
Looks Great

A framegroup counts as a single frame from the point of view of the QC. So you need to replace the frame used in the stand "sequence" for the vore with a framegroup. That frame is ... $stand1??????
OK, but you'd have to worry about that a bit anyway. The first frame of the vore's walk animation has to double as the idle pose, so for starters you need to make sure it's balanced and planted on the ground at that moment. The trick is then to animate an idle there where any of the frames within are reasonable to sit between $walk12 and $walk2. I guess you'll need to keep the idle simple, but it should be fine to add some motion.

That frame is ... $walk1??????
Obviously if there was a "stand1 then all the question marks would be gratuitous.
Shambler Vid
I created a vid of my own map that shows off the shambler. There's 4 shambler fights in this map...

And after meeting this shambler, the vanilla fiend looks outdated.

The walk cycle on that model is really bad. The idle animation works nicely though, shame.
This New Shambler Model's

looking awesome
but his idle(breathing) animation is sorta jello-ish
similar to kingpin's model animation
or is it just me?
anyway it's a HUGE upgrade over the regular shambler
Blame MDL Sadly.
#62 posted by Skiffy on 2016/02/09 13:56:49
Cant be helped. THAT is MDL format limitations. I'm going to try out an MD3 version in darkplaces later. But this is why I would love MD3 support for Fritz and Quakespasm too!....

Yeah the polygon density has gone up a lot, which makes the jello effect a lot more pronounced unfortunately, as there are just a lot more verts to be wibblin' and a wobblin' all in different directions :(
md3 would be nice.
