For people who have no idea what quake textures are could you post screenshots?

Isn't this blocked by sv_pure?

on sv_pure 2 its blocked, but its still nice to have on scrim servers and pubs

Would I have to take it out before playing on an sv_pure 2 server? Or will it automatically just not work?

Automatically won't work, sv_pure 2 just means no mods will work as all the textures/models are grabbed from the server/GCF

could also DL from this thread

The gamebanana page for these was actually taken down, and I was looking for another download. Thank you.

Sorry to bump but I felt I needed to post this:

Last night at 11pm I downloaded the materials.rar and extracted it to my tf/custom/my_custom_stuff/ folder. Before doing so, I renamed my current /materials/ folder to /nonquake_materials/ just in case I wanted to switch back or something. Well, when I put the new /materials/ in my /my_custom_stuff/ folder, I got an error about the path. So I opened up the new /materials/ folder and lo and behold, I see that within it, there is a /my_custom_stuff/ folder. Not sure how, but when I opened that up, it had all of the subfolders I had in mine. So I deleted it, thinking it was a copy. Started tf2 and it opened fine. Realize that my hud is missing. So I open up my /my_custom_stuff/ folder and some of the subfolders. They are all empty. I start panicking because I was an idiot and used Shift+Del to permanently delete the old /my_custom_stuff/ folder. I did end up recovering everything, but I am not sure why the /materials/ put my original /my_custom_stuff/ folder inside of it and why it deleted all of the files from the /my_custom_stuff/ folder I put it in. So please be careful.

can someone mirror this to zippyshare or mediafire? apparently my browser isnt updated according to mega.co, except it is.

Is there any fps improvements on this, and will it mess with my fps config?
Was also wondering, isn't this quite just like the flatworld textures?

no fps improvement, and it shouldn't mess with your fps config. i'm pretty sure these and flatworld textures are the same thing.

thanks! :D

Ok so, after restoring all of my files to their original folders (had to manually put them back since they came out all separate from the restore) I am getting an engine error on launch:

 Engine Error
CResponseSystem::LoadFromBuffer: Unknown entry type 'zq', expected 'response', 'criterion', 'enumeration' or 'rules' in file scripts/talker/response_rules.txt(offset:2)

Additionally, I randomly get this error instead:

Invalid or corrupt background texture
materials/console/background_upward_widescreen.vtf

I tried validating the cache, but still getting the error. I also tried opening response_rules.txt in /custom/my_custom_stuff/scripts/talker/ but I only saw Chinese letters and assorted symbols so I left it alone. Any idea how to fix this?

This appears to have enabled dx8 or something along those lines, even thought I have dx9 in launch options. This messes with my spec killstreaks (minor gripe but I would appreciate a fix). Also I thought the entire point of this was to boost FPS?

the odds are your computer isn't going to see much FPS boost from reducing vram used

is it allowed in etf2l ?

etf2l cfg will block it

Dude, don't necro...

it won't work on sv_pure 2 servers. (To play a match your servers needs to have sv_pure 2)

Actually, it does still 'work' somewhat....
Just when sv_pure is set to 2 or whatever the ETF2L config is, some textures go all fuzzy-line-like....

How do you uninstall the textures? Ive tried replacing the files with the default texture ones which I backed up as well as deleting them entirely but I can't get rid of it.
