Quake 1 on Unreal Engine 4

Thought I'd put this out here, for those who haven't seen it yet:

Just a small glimpse, doubtful that some progress will be made, looking at the date of the posted vid, but you never know.

Quake running on Unreal Engine might be heretical too, but it's also true that id Tech 6 isn't quite as accessible as Unreal Engine 4 is, as it's more of a "in-house" engine for Bethesda's own titles.

Looks very nice, except for the bolts. They seem to be a bit too present for my taste.
Too bad the project probably won't be continued.

I sooooo look forward to id eventually making a new Quake game that is thematically faithful to the first game. /throwsmoneyatscreen

My personal fav is the Quake HD Pack based on Darkplaces but with a bunch of extra stuff. Check it out if you haven't. I just found it this year after having used vanilla Darkplaces (with hires textures) for years now. Made it even cooler. :)

Meh, Tenebrae was doing Doom 3 effects before Doom 3 officially came out (2003):

It's a pain getting it to run on modern hardware though, so Darkplaces is, indeed, the best graphics mod for Quake nowadays.

shrug niggurath

you need a significant overhaul of geometry to make things look modern, not just some HD textures and lighting changes (especially since lighting is contingent on geometry anyway)
