Title: Quake 2 Explosions (can they be done in q3?)
Post by: gnear on 2004-05-16, 09:05
Hey,

I'm new to the forum, though I watch and play generations arena heaps.  

one thing I didnt like from the old release is the strogg explosions.  It looks like it came from duke3d or somthing  :shifty:

I was wandering have you changed it for the new version, or what would be cooler is remake the original Q2 explosion <3 , I know that would be a lot of work because its a 3D model "I think?"

for authenticities sake  ^_^

Thanks,

Actually, the original explosion .md2 from Quake 2 has been in older versions, just to see if it would work. It did. A while ago now, I completely remodelled the explosion from scratch, and was in the process of making a texture for it, when my disk crashed. Since, as you say, it is indeed a lot of work, I didn't feel like doing it again soon after :]

Don't worry, it'll be there ;]

Don't get me wrong here, I did make backups. It seems real men forget some directories, sometimes :]
