[bluntz]

Mine doesn't feel very q1 ish either its too BF2.
with the console down its like riding with the hatch up and tailgunning..lol
I gray toned it for a better feel but now it feels wolfy so I am going to do something else eclipse like.This is the 99 eclipse

Make it more red/yellow and you'd have a "Heros" conback

Maybe i am just being stupid but i can't get the conbacks i have for MP1 and MP2 to work, i placed them in the MP GFX folders, named conback.tga. But once i start SoA for example i just see the QUAKE conback instead of the new conback. Anybody got a idea what i am doing wrong?

[grave_digga]

Should go like this:

\QUAKE\hipnotic\gfx\Conback.tga

or

\QUAKE\rogue\gfx\Conback.tga

Thanks for the reply grave_digga, i got it like that and it doesn't work... Weird....

[grave_digga]

With which parameters did you start the game? darkplaces.exe -hipnotic ?

[LambentHammerBurst]

Do you have any pk3's in either of their folders? Ensure none have a conback in them.
I have also noticed PNG's are executed after tga's. So if any conback.png's exist they will take over the tga.

Thanks ooppee & grave_digga for the help, it was the png issue, all is working well now, learned something new today about tga and png in DP

Nice conback bluntz!

Yes it is the same eclipse but shot at a different time.
Quake had the theme before Heroes was ever thought of though.
The eclipse from last year in India is a better one.
I am looking for hires ones of that.
This one is from indonesia 2009 National geographic I think.

The first or last one would be the best choice, if you angle it right you got the crescent of the Quake logo, so then you could simply edit it slightly to become a full Quake logo

My head works in somewhat disturbing ways...
