Why does my sky look so shitty?

[Thomas M.]

Hi!

I'm using HiRes-Textures and R1GL, but my sky looks very shitty.
Is there anything that can be done about that? Do you need more information??

The hi res texture paks don't include new skies.

Hmm. They should, if you ask me.

By the way:

1.) Are hires-textures for the monsters and items available somewhere?
2.) Or new versions of the original monster-md2s with more polygons??
3.) Is it useful to convert the original q2-sounds to 44kHz and letting them play with this sampling rate with set s_khz "44" or wouldn't that make any difference???
4.) Does a CIN-Viewer exist????
5.) Is it possible to use a different character set in the console?????

Questions, questions, questions...

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

There are a few paks with hi-res items and some hacked up Q2Evolved paks with new monster models, but you'll have to go hunting for them since there are some dubious copyright claims floating around. Converting the original sounds won't help as s_khz 44 already upsamples everything to 44khz, the only benefit you would see is slightly faster loading time on the sounds. I don't believe there is an external CIN viewer, and the character set is hardcoded to QWERTY.

Cool, thanx!!!
