Quake1 , being ported to CryEngine3

[Mindf!3ldzX]

While this is by no means a 100% realized "Effort to port the ENTIRE Q1 game" , It's still leet as shit and E1M1 looks great.


Surprise surprise; Quake comes to CryEngine 3 with Crysis 2 – E1M1 – The Slipgate Complex | DSOGaming | The Dark Side Of Gaming

i love that quake is on everything! i love it on my wii just wish it did mod and maps better if its not in a normal pak file its a no go...

when i get a card for my kids Nintendo ds its gonna og on there too!

i just wish that there was a split screen to play dm and coop on the other gaming systems

last night i read something from a old website saying they were going to port it to a old school atari but i dont think that ever made

the port to wii is what was brought me to quake one in the first place and now im playing it on my pc like back in the day with all the bad ass q1 addons

[Mindf!3ldzX]

well, Q1 is hardly on CryEng3.... although if I had to give percentage chances they would be..



Chances of Id Software making a ID Tech 5 version of Q1 / something close to Q1 : 30%

Chances of this guy fully porting Q1 to CryEngine3 without being raped by Bethesda/Id : 40%

Chances of this fizzling into nothing more than a few screenshots : 30%

Here's where I will go out on a limb and say ; none , partly cloudy, with a chance of grapes.

well so far you have the 'none' part right. It's a beautiful day here.

I don't like how it looks. It looks even more colorless than the original and everything looks like it's made of shiny plastic.

Are you kidding me? WHAT!?!?? Seriously bro, if someone created a solid gold shambler figurine and gifted it to you I bet you'd say "Too shiny,looks like plastic" even then too

Truth be told, the Engine could be tweaked via CVAR to remove that effect, so you're criticism there is a moot point.
Colorless?I'll be back with more later! edit ; back,with color counts

I didn't bother getting the color counts on the last before/after set. My findings speak for themselves, the color counts are anywhere between close to being doubled, and that first comparison shot we are seeing the color count TRIPLED / ALMOST QUADRUPLED.

[MadGypsy]

I have to agree^.. Quake original is just a lot of muddy colors. Bloodshots work brings those colors to life (imo). I also like how he didn't just 100% remake e1m1, there is a bit of "executive" decision making going on in his map, without it seeming like a completely different place.

I'd give this project some thumbs up, but I only own 2 and I don't think that's enough {borrows mindzs thumbs}

4 thumbs up!

{hands Mindz back his thumbs}

Mindz: "Did you have to cut them off of my hand?!"
me: "I sorry "

[Mindf!3ldzX]

haha , I wonder if this continues to be worked on HMM

Color count is worthless in this matter, because it represents mere numbers, but not how they spread across the color spektrum.

If you compare the color curves, original DOS Quake has less colors and thus not a "fluent" curve, but the colors it has ARE more diverse.

if someone created a solid gold shambler figurine and gifted it to you I bet you'd say "Too shiny,looks like plastic" even then too

This is a nonsensical comparison and you know it. You're comparing monetary worth of a supposed real object to taste and opinion towards some screenshots on the internet.
If you like the CryEngine shots, good for you. I don't like how they look and that's all I said. I don't see the big deal with it.

A very true and intelligent comeback
