Hd textures for monsters and weapons for Quake 2. Classic style.
This pack is work in progress but for now are finished some frequently used monsters and weapons.
Primary I use AI upscaling but this is not only simple upscale and after upscale all textures are manually edited. Especially faces on monsters and some small details distorted after upscaling.
I prefer KmQuake2 for play Quake 2 and I testing this only with KmQuake 2 .

thank you

Any likelihood of adding in support for the Mission Packs (Ground Zero, The Reckoning, Zaero)?
i must say, your SG skin looks better than mine, also i saw your post at the Cafe, the monster skins needs some tweaking, in fact i suggest using the old beta promotional monster screenshots and Q2test for their faces.
But now that QC has finally released all of quake 2's armory outside reckoning and the ETF rifle, i would edit that ammo drum to look closer to the QC skin, but i dunno how to do perspective textures and my hard drive with the stuff is inaccessible for now... :\
Is there any way to get this working on the Quake 2 VR mod for Quest 2 by drbeef? It uses yamagi q2, I know the weapons are not going to be working, but the enemies would be great.
Hi,
I did this primary for kmquake 2 and I do not try yamagi Q2 but I think this must working. Try open pk3 file from my mod and "models" folder copy in baseq2 folder. I do not know what files support yamagi but maybe this will works.
As Yamagi apparently supports .zip instead of .pk3 extension, you might just change the extension, should work.
I made my account purely to give my feedback to this awesome texture pack. Just completed the game with your textures, and they were pretty awesome. I love how you kept their classic look, while recreating them, I very much appreciate this addon.
You made my Quake 2 run a bit better, game looked smooth as heck. Thank you.
Thank you very very much :)
Nice weapon textures! I too would love to see mission pack weapons :)
