Just wondering how to put a edited texture in quake. Baker if you see this could you elaborate more? I'm extremely confused on what you told me to do.

Gentlemen. Good news in the war against the Strogg. A lone marine battled through enemy lines and killed the Strogg's leader, the Makron. He's also disabled the planetary defence guns, so it's a ground-pounder's war from here on in. General Harper wants us to clear out a landing site for a mobile communications center and -

Are you referring to replacing a texture within the bsp itself with a texture of equal resolution
or installing a high res texture pack.
If it's the second, it has to be a external texture pack -
nono im looking to make my own texture for the mapGentlemen. Good news in the war against the Strogg. A lone marine battled through enemy lines and killed the Strogg's leader, the Makron.

Well if you are using darkplaces or almost any other modern engine you can make a replacement texture by putting it in the textures folder. Take a look how QRP's texture pack did it. This would be a much easier way. You can also make it ONLY effect a single map by putting the texture into .../textures/e1m1/ for example. That'd make it only effect e1m1Comment

Just create it yourself in whichever mod you're playing.
So if it's standard Quake:
.../id1/textures/
create if it's not present.Comment

inside that folder (textures), create another folder called the map name. So if it was E2M6 you'd have a ..../textures/e2m6 with the texture inside there.Comment

Ensure it's named the same as it was within the wad. I am going to use "z_exit" as the texture of choice. I want it to be red in all levels except E1M1 in which I will replace it to have blue text instead.
I'd save a copy of z_exit with the red text as z_exit.tga and place it in (TGA and JPG are supported by most engines):
.../textures/
now I'd save my z_exit with blue text as z_exit.tga also BUT it'd be placed in:
.../textures/e1m1
and done, don't need to put it into the map. Darkplaces will automatically load the texture for you and replace it WITHOUT editing the map.Comment

Sounds like it'd save the map itself (overwrite it).
With texture replacements with Darkplaces you do not have to worry about pallets. The texture can be 24bit with a alpha channel and not cause issues.
So find the texture you want to replace, right click it, choose export and choose tga24
That will export it as a tga file so you can place it in the folder you need to after editing it to your liking.Comment
