I've uploaded a copy of the model and a TGA version of its texture here:

Actually this feature doesn't exist yet... not sure how you got it working

[hogsy]

Yes it does.

Also, fitzquake already fixed the upside-down tga bug.

One guess is, if you're working with a modified fitzquake with this feature added, there may be UV mapping issues due to the way fitzquake deals with non-power-of-two images. The UVs were probably generated with the original 8-bit texture in mind; if the replacement texture isn't the same size as the original (or a power of two multiple of the original size) the modded fitzquake might not be smart enough to fix the UVs for that case.

Sorry, I had assumed you meant TGA support. This is a feature I'm working on implementing myself (which I thought was quite obvious from my first post ). The texture scale for all "dkpo" models is 640x480.
There is no original texture stored in the models as the textures are required to be loaded externally for this model format.

hmm not sure its gonna work without some modification then since quakes texture manager rescales sizes according to the models builtin texture mip's (which in this case wont work).

would probably need something like a shader i reckon ?.

one place to look could be quake2 it does things a little different than quake since its models also rely on external data.

Yeah I've been looking at Quake 2 quite a bit. I'll tell you if I manage to get anywhere.
