Quake Epsilon Build
If you haven't already, you should really check out the Quake Epsilon Build on Ultra Graphics Settings. It's amazing, the textures are extremely high res, along with the models, lighting effects and physics. It's by far the best mod for Quake I've ever seen in terms of enhancing the visuals and atmosphere while staying true to the original gameplay. http://www.xpfree.org/epsilon/

I personally can't agree more. I love Epsilon but sadly, due to loading times on it. It makes it unplayable for me. Even though when I can play it, It plays at 60FPS on max settings. But great mod though.

Even when installed on my SSD it takes about 30 seconds for each level to load up. Why is that?

I'm not pooping on anyone's preferences here, just throwing my own 2 cents in:

When I'm in the mood for goosing Quake's looks I tend to prefer Quake HD (there's also a http://quakeone.com/forums/quake-talk/single-player/7306-quake-hd-new-spawns.html). If this is your sort of thing then you might want to give that a look too. I think it's been put together pretty carefully & has about as consistent a look as is possible, given the wide variety of source materials.

I do think that the original Quake campaign and most third-party maps look better without any texture replacement or special effects, just because that's not what they were designed for. Most of the time I run things pretty vanilla except for higher (and widescreen) resolutions. But it can be fun to experiment with the visual addons from time to time.

I have version 2.5.2 of Epsilon, and I'm missing some textures, such as doors, the slipgate detailing, and others. Could someone help? I have the graphics settings on high; I know for a fact that as old as my PC is, and the fact that it only has on-board video, that it can't handle Ultra. I'm actually surprised it can run High at all.
