Quake reforged - alternative and altered skins!

[osjclatchford]

...following on from a conversation in the qrf thread, Ive decided to open this thread for anyone who has any altered or tweaked skin-work based on or around the quake reforged skins.
I have concent from the team so don't fear about poaching of other's work.

I shall begin with the following head skins:
H_Knight and H_hellkn
I did these for lightning-hunter as he noticed the lack of 'gore' on the necks of the knight and deathknight's gibbed heads left a plain black area.
The gore is the same texture as the gib skins I released (for classic models), which in-turn was inspired by the qrf team in the first place!
Of course, all normals/gloss'/lumas, you may or may not already have, still work with these skins.

Well thats all for now but I hope you enjoy and remember, If you have any altered or tweaked reforged skins, get 'em on this thread, share the wealth!

*update*
preview pic as promised.
*end*


regards
Latchford

Thanks for the head gibs, Osjclatchford!

Now that such a thread is started, I think it's time to post my recolored version of the Boss skin. I basically just wanted a reforged version of the boss that more closely matched the original in color. This is what I came up with:

(For Darkplaces, you will probably have to rename the image to boss.mdl_0.jpg to work. I did not include any animations or gloss effects, because I use Qrack. If anyone feels like doing the animations based on my version, feel free to post them here!)

that 'classic' chton is very tasty stuff, I'm very glad I started this now!

Well, I created a "classic" version of the reforged Shambler, but am not sure if I have permission to release it due to the fact that it uses some of Ogro's Shambler skin. I basically created a hybrid between Ogro's skin and the reforged one, and did some enhancements myself (took hours in photoshop to accomplish). Anyone know if Ogro gave any kind of permission on his skins?

Here is a screenshot:

As already mentioned in Reforged�s thread, some people complaint about the fiends skin beeing too bright:

Lighting_Hunter's 'classic' ch'thon for DP

as suggested: 'classic' chthon for dp.

I got just about fed up with waiting a full two minutes for the damned animation frames of the qrf version to load!
Its longer to load chthon than it is to beat him in-game! lol
Besides, IMHO Lightning_hunter's recolour is much more faithfull...

here's the eyecandy preview pic for the dp users

[Lightning_Hunter]

Cool. Thanks for doing that.

We are going to have to compile a pack of all the best alternate skins when this thread gets larger!

'classic' rotfish?

Just remembered, a while ago now, I was working on this skin for the fish to make the eyes a little closer to the original but I never liked how it looked in dp.
Maybe it'll look beter in qrack or another engine?
Just slap it into your progs folder but don't forget to change the file extention as appropriate for your engine of choice...

hope you guys get more enjoyment out of it than I did!

Here's a few more screens of the classic version of the reforged Shambler skin (with some updates). I'll probably go ahead and release this, since it barely uses any of Ogro's Shambler skin anyway. I won't post it if anyone has an objection, however...

[osjclatchford]

oh, yeah, the more I see it the more I want it!
