A repack of monoxead HR textures combined with wulfen's texture pack 2.0 for DOOM 3
For details read the description.
Wulfen wrote in a post of the comments to his mod "wulfen texture pack 2.0" Moddb.com , that "monoxead's HR textures" mod is needed for his pack. As it is quite hard to find Monoxead's mod today, I searched it in the depths of the internet and merged it with Wulfen's mod for you. So my file includes both mods. The combination looks great. Just place the file in the "base" folder of the game.
I decided to use these packs, because I like to play the "OpenCoop Alpha 2.0" mod Moddb.com but had problems to get it working with the "Absolute HD 1.6" mod. Without the Absolute HD mod or the "sikkmod", Wulfen's texture pack causes buggy panels. So I deleted "the base_wall.mtr" file in the archive, what fixes that :)
This only works with the original game patched to Version 1.3.1. I suggest DOOM_3_1.3.1_Patch_Fixed_v4.2 to full patch the game. Moddb.com
And I recommend to modify your DoomConfig.cfg file, to set a custom resolution. For example:
seta r_mode "-1"
seta r_customHeight "1440"
seta r_customWidth "2560"
seta image_downSizeBump "0"
seta image_downSizeSpecular "0"
seta image_downSize "0"
seta image_lodbias "-1.0"
downSize and lodbias are important to activate the high resolution textures. Check those values first if your game does not use the new textures.
At last I saw that a "HIGH-RES PIPES (unoffical wulfen 2.0 update)" mod was released and I thought about including this too, but as I got CRC errors while I was packing the file and read from other users in the comments that this so called update also brings some worse textures with it, I decided to ditch it.
Update: The parallax fix from Wulfen was found by a friendly user :D So I integrated it. Some files have been swapped and some are new, but it is not a big difference. Anyhow it is slightly better now than before :)
Also a custom patch für OpenCoop has been released, and I suggest to use it Moddb.com
Have fun :)
Thank you for this!
Hey, does this include Wulfen's fix for monoxead's floor and door frame textures which was called zzz_parallaxfix.pk4? I cannot find it anywhere (on the internet). Is it already applied?
Also, when you say that you deleted "the base_wall.mtr" file in the archive, was this a file from either the wulfen or monoxead texture pack, or something from either OpenCoop or Absolute HD? In other words, is this wulfen+monoxead pack incomplete if I won't be using it with opencoop or AbsoluteHD because you've deleted a certain file from it?
Fyi, you can see what I'm talking about if you view the original thread that wulfen created on doom3world (via the wayback machine), here:
Web.archive.org
At the very bottom of wulfen's post it says "fix for monoxead floor and doorframe" with a link to the above mentioned zzz_parallax.pk4 file. Unfortunately, that link is dead.
I'm wondering if this package has that fix, or if possibly you can obtain it otherwise?
@ Guest: Youre welcome :)
@ lukeman3000: The zzz_parallax.pk4 file ins not integrated. I searched for it too, but without success. The the base_wall.mtr file comes from Wulfen and causes most panels ingame to stay black, so that you can not interact with them. The file only works correctly with the AbsoluteHD mod. And as I dont use it, the solution is to delete it.
Update: the lost file was found and the download than updates :)
Thank you! Appreciate the effort made for this
