This MOD is a (much needed) graphical overhaul for Quake 1.5 Public Beta 1: a set of texture-replacements taken from other MODs and here and there in Internet and added together to Quake 1.5, so that it also looks acceptable - or even very good! - for modern standards. Making these texture-sets work in Quake 1.5 has required a certain amount of effort, due to the complexity of the internal structure of Quake 1.5 itself. Therefore I decided to create a new MOD, name it "Quake 1.5 HD", so that everyone can easily enjoy the new weapons and the new gore system in combination with high resolution textures.
I like how they redid the water here, but I don't like the new textures and patterns at all. This addon creates the impression of those same Doom megawads, where normal textures are replaced with 4k textures. Or in the most unfortunate of cases, upscaled textures with AI. On the contrary, such improvements destroy the entire atmosphere of the game. I would really like to see the original textures and models preserved (or do their job well I don't know), at least as an additional feature.
