Quake Reforged Project

Damn Alfader & Nergal, those new skins look awesome! Can't wait to try them out in game. I really like the new grunt and fiend and shambler.

Edit: The movie previews al seems to show the vore instead of their own movie previews.

Awesome, been checking out your Enforcers and the stuff you had up last week, and loving it then went back on today thinking "imma have me sum Shub-Niggurath wallpaper" and KABOOM, there's new releases all over the place.
(For vanilla Quake there's now at least one thing up for every monster apart from Chthon, and strangely enough, the ogre.)
Congratulations guys, it's been an agonizing wait so it's great to see you delivering such high quality content!

Its really a blast !!

Amazing work Quake-Reforged Team.
I simply love it.

I just tried all your skins for the first time today and I simply love them !

This is a impressive job, very detailed, absolutely beautiful, and it fits perfectly with both the original game feeling and the newer textures.

I was first disappointed by the previous hell knight skin, the vomit wasn't making sense to me, so I'm happy that you choose to remove it.

Some few remarks:
- hell knight's back foot looks a bit too bright to me especially in dark areas
- same for the knight's front foot (not dirty enough)
- and I would also darken a bit the fiend's skin
- that's all !

Thanks a lot for what you're doing guys.

Hmm, the Alternate version of the Shambler appears to be the same file as the Official version. Also, is there any way to make the stretching ANY less noticeable on the side of the Shamblers head? I know this is due to the model, but there has to be a way so it isn't quite that bad.

I've been noticing that the Qrack versions of these skins lack the norm, gloss, and luma. I know Qrack does not support these, but that's not my point. Take the Hell Knight for example. The default skin has no color by itself without the gloss. Can't you guys use layers in photoshop to apply the gloss to the Qrack skin to make it look better?

[Alfader]

Are you sure that the same file for shambler? I have just re-downloaded and both are different, the first Official, and the second alternative ... maybe you used the same file 7z ... Although sometimes it could happen...

[Lightning_Hunter]

Ohhhh, nevermind. I see what I did. I didn't realize that both links on the news section for the Shambler went to the same page. I simply downloaded the first one both times, not realizing the alternate version was right below it.

Does anyone have a wireframe skin for the Shambler? I'd like to see exactly where the pixels are on the messed up side of the Shamblers head.

WOW!
Guys, that's just awesome!
You really delivered and more!
I'll get around to installing them ASAP, with a bit of a heavy period going on of my own.
(So far, I've grabbed the bloody shambler, main rotfish, secondary zombie (gooier, deader texture), and all of the rest!

Now it IS just the ogre (can't wait, he looks the sweetest!) and the Cthon (should be interesting).
Now we have an almost complete Quake experience at hand!

[Senban]

I'm actually really looking forward to the donner-dentata nightmare of Shub the most, although there is something about that ogres eyes that I find quite appealing.

[morari]

This is really, truly great work! I'm glad that you've decided to put such effort forward, and share it with all of us! Thank you!

I can't wait to see the Orgre and Cthon. I always kind of thought that the Ogre would look nice with a burlap sack on his head... like in Resident Evil 4, or the Scarecrow in Batman. *shrugs*

Is there is a reason that only one of the versions of Shub-Niggurath is available? I'd like to give them both a spin.

[Lightning_Hunter]

This question has probably already been answered, but are the head skins going to be created? I assumed they would come out when all the skins are done, but I just wanted to know.

[DeadTenor]

Awesome, thanks for the new material on the site.

[seanstar]

nice job on the skins...the knights look really good.

well done, im waiting for what should be your best skin the ogre

[Alfader]

Of course, Lightning, our plan is to release a general version, High and Ultra, including all the quake skins with their "heads". One of these days we update our site
We're glad you like them, if you have suggestions we accept them with pleasure .. soon

I have a few suggestions, actually!

-The Knight, although awesome looking, has a very odd hue to the skin. Note that I'm using the Qrack version. From a distance, the Knight almost looks like a photo, rather than being crisp and clear. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it might be related to the coloring. In addition, the blood splats on the Knight's chest are too blotchy. The result looks more like polka dots on the Armor rather than bloodstains (like a clown). I think the Blood on the Armor needs more detail - such as damage on the Armor itself, or different shapes (not so circular).

-I would love for you guys to make an alternate version of the Shambler that has fur instead of skin like the current version (which would be more true to the original skin). I also wish it was more white, rather than brownish like the current versions. I think the current Shamblers remind me too much of the Barons in Doom3.

And of course, there is my previous suggestion that you guys merge the gloss, norm, luma, and default textures together for the Qrack version, since the Qrack engine does not apply them. I did this myself to a few of the skins, including the Hell Knight. After applying the gloss as color dodge and messing with the opacity, the Hell Knight had more color. The default Qrack skin was too plain.
