2d Sprites?

Post by Guest »

This may be beyond quake's capabilities, but I do know of a friend who did it with jedi knight. Anyway, is it possible to make it so all of the enemy sprites and weapon sprites are there 2d sprites? Since this is all at high res they should look better then the originals! I'm pretty sure it's possible, it would just look weird at extreme overhead angles since the sprites would look like spinning paper standups, but it would still be cool nonetheless.

2D md3.s with the animations and view angles would probalby do it. But we are in the process or making all new 3D models for each item. I'm skinning faster, really I am :(

Cruaich, you are doing just fine. ;) Keep it up!

A while ago...
I thought up a thing, and I thought it up quick,
I thought of a feature that would proove quite sick!
The sprites just like paper and pixel combined,
The images old were afloat in my mind!
A mode of nostalgia! How brilliant, how great!
Now, I just need one who this, can create...
The models all lucid, none showing at all,
But only the images, flat as a wall.
The monsters from Blood, and the weapon and item,
Just like before, with the spray can you light 'em!
Original pictures the same, yet anew-
And ye slay once again all those villans you slew...

Thank you, thank you very much!
