The Quake 2 RP Team is currently working on a promising high quality texture pack for id Software’s classic shooter, Quake 2. This pack aims to introduce new textures as much as possible close to original but with new shaders and 2K resolution (textures are made from scratch using Zbrush and Substance Painter).

The textures will also have PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials and the shaders that have been used support Albedo, Roughness, Specular, Parallax, Normal mapping, though there is currently no support for a “metallness” shader.

I have that huge mod collection that was released for Quake back in the day - I'm wondering if they may work, so if there is no official HD mod, I'll try the ones on that disc. There is a new update for Quake2Quest, and it includes the HD textures. At last, 4 years after we started the Mission Pack 2 sub project and 20 years on the day since Quake was released, we can finally reveal: The MP2 textures are 100% done! When the MP2 development came to a halt in early 2013 it felt like we would not make it – ever – but somehow the inspiration to complete the textures returned and here we are! The Quake 2 Neural Upscale 1.0.0 uses AI techniques in order to enhance and improve the game’s textures. This pack currently only overhauls the textures of its 3D models, and does not feature any. May 28, 2016 Well, now that the brightness and the other bugs have been fixed, I am setting off to get the textures and such upgraded in Yamagi Quake 2 on OS X. I downloaded the one from the readme for the textures and it works perfect, but what abou. The update to Quake2Quest that changes the underlying engine to the fantastic Yamagi Quake 2. HD Weapons and Textures are included Included in this package are modified HD weapon models that have no unsettling hands/arms, as well as HD textures and model packs, so no need to install anything yourself.

It sounds interesting and although the modder has claimed that this pack will only work properly with Quake 2 XP engine, we really hope that it will also work with the real-time ray tracing mod of Quake 2. As we’ve already stated, Quake 2 has some really low-resolution textures that look awful when ray tracing is enabled, so here is hoping that this upcoming HD Texture Pack will be compatible with it.

Although there is no ETA on when this pack will be released, the team has released some comparison screenshots between the original and the new textures that you can find below.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
