Func_Msgboard: RemakeQuake

Posted by ijed on 2008/11/15 04:22:38

This is a thread about a project currently underway to remake Quake one.

It involves upgrading what exists already in order to play and look better or at least differently in all probable situations and enhance what is already there in this great game.

So we're remixing all the maps, monsters, and the player.

A specific engine in order to solve long-standing issues isn't out of the question, the main concerns being cross-OS support for features that should be common, like entity alpha and multiplayer. These things exist in various forms, but there's still no standard, at least today.

There's a great wealth of resource on this board - the one thing that doesn't exist here is apathy.

So, we're fishing for contributors. If you can make a map, animate or code and want to see this monster through to its conception then you're on the team.

Over the next few days I'll post info on what currently exists, and where it's headed.

I suspect the lighting will be very ( in glquake

Possibly, yeah. I'll work on that. But:

Keep in mind these are WIP shots.

The mod is backwards compatible, meaning it'll change the gameplay in all id1 based maps. This is continuously tested. I believe this'll introduce quite some replay value to existing custom maps.

Just want to say that having played it, I can attest to this: I very much enjoyed replaying pretty much all the vanilla id maps with the remake mod enabled, which is something I never normally do.

E1M2 rebuild and there is a remake of Jago 60% made that will never see the lights of the day...

i saw it, and still have it in my hard drive.

Outstanding map, is a petty Jago will never finish it...

since is a remaking in progress why don�t anyone ask jago for it?

map is outstanding!

Im sorry but I have to say this is not true. The pest client for pictures is probably FitzQuake or Darkplaces. Other GlQuake engines (Tomaz, JoeQuake, Qrack, QMB etc etc etc do not support gl overbrights and the lighting looks flat :( )

Nah

Joequake is fine. http://www.quaddicted.com/engines/engine_comparison.html (really gotta update that page though...)

#146 posted by RickyT33 on 2009/02/11 14:08:36

i stand corrected.

(I may be forced to check myself though ;)

OK, last night I gave in and started using wait 0.5 and brighter sunlight/3.

Yes, the maps were too dark. You live, you learn.

gb learning is the incense of life!

and that was a main reason for crappy screenies.

The "grainy" effect you see in most of the screenies is gone now. :)

I tried to download the Assembly Site and installed it.
Then I made a new user with password but I think I did something wrong. I can make my own site, but my intentions were to get grip of the Quake Remake project.

So eitherwise I can start my own project,or seek the QuakeRemake page, but I get lost by seeking the SNV and/or ticket.

Download And Install This:

#153 posted by RickyT33 on 2009/02/15 23:58:03

http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads

then make a "remake" folder in your quake dir, then you have to get the URL from the Assembla site..... ;)

Grmpf

I've downloaded the prog, installed it and I end up on this page...

Now tell me how to get the QuakeRemake link?

Madfox

#155 posted by golden_boy on 2009/02/16 22:23:38

You haven't accepted the invitation yet, thus Assembla thinks you can't access RemakeQuake. Please do this:

1. Accept the invitation. You should have gotten an invitation email from Assembla that says, "Click this link to confirm ... etc". You need to do this first.

2. Afterwards, under "My Spaces" you should see this:

RemakeQuake (Trac Tickets)

You do NOT need to create your own space! You can delete the space "madfox".

3. Once you see the RemakeQuake link under "My Spaces", you can click on "Trac tickets" to go to the ticket system and on "RemakeQuake" to go to the space. There will be another link that says, "use this address in your SVN client".

If you still have problems, just email me.

Sorry for the trouble.

Not At All

1. Accept the invitation. You should have gotten an invitation email from Assembla that says, "Click this link to confirm ... etc".

but, as I confirm I end up on a page saying I have no permission,

#157 posted by gb on 2009/02/17 02:14:12

I have removed and re-invited you; please check if you have a new invitation email, and use that link please.

If that doesn't work, we'll mail Assembla about it.
