Installation

ezQuake:

To install this pack for ezQuake versions 1.9 (build 2039 or later) compiled on or after 9-28-2007, simply extract the .pk3 file into quake\id1 directory and it will automatically be loaded. For previous versions of ezQuake (version 1.8.2 or earlier), rename the .pk3 to .zip and extract into quake\id1 (so a folder "textures" will be created).

FTE/Darkplaces:

Both engines have supported .pk3 loading for a long time, therefore simply extract the .pk3 file to quake/id1 and both engines will automatically load the textures.

FAQ

• What is convert-links.bat?

  • This bat file is included for users who play with Quake engines which do not support .link files. .link files are a wonderful solution to duplicate textures in Quake with different names. For example, if there are two duplicate textures with different names, one texture physically exists, however the second texture is named with a .link file, and inside the file is the name of the real texture. This reduces the file size of our releases and your Quake directory. However, if your client does not support .link files, you must rename the .pk3 to .zip, extract the contents, copy over the bat file into the same directory as both the textures and the .link files, and execute it. Then either move these files into quake\id1\textures or zip the files up, rename it to .pk3, and put it in quake\id1.

• Why are there two "quake" textures?

  • Moon[Drunk] did two "Quake" textures (first seen on start.bsp) - a faithful one and a faithful one with the words "Quake Retexture Project" written down the bottom. If you feel like supporting one of the most active and productive Quake projects, feel free to rename Quake-QRP.jpg to Quake.jpg and replace it with the one in /textures/.
