Is there any interest in an updated Quake engine?

This forum is for discussion pertaining to homebrew and indie software for the Dreamcast, such as homebrew games, emulators/interpreters, and other homebrew software/applications. Porting requests and developmental ideas are not to be made here; you can make those here. If you need any help burning discs for homebrew software, this is the place to ask as well.

Done:

  • Faster BSP z-buffer rendering
  • Faster surface cache drawing
  • Lightmap dithering on surface caches - this is only calculated when lighting changes, so the impact on performance won't be noticeable
Still left:

  • Faster texture rendering (for BSP, SPR & MDL models)
  • Faster sky rendering (with no blending and no fading)
  • Proper high-res underwater screen warping (this may not make much visual difference, but is also faster)
  • High-res turbulence on liquid surfaces
  • Stippled translucent liquids (water & slime only)
I'm not sure about the stippled liquids, though.
