Brings Quake 4 to modern standards by fixing the obvious bugs. Until we get a remaster (if ever), this is necessary. This is tested for Steam only. Untested on any other platform or retail, but should work fine. Some launch parameters are needed, so figure out a way to launch the game with those if not on Steam.
What this mod will do:
- Fixes the infamous low textures glitch;
- Removes framerate limit while keeping game physics working properly;
- Makes shadows not pitch black anymore;
- Fixes Steam Overlay not opening;
- Fixes the stretched UI to display properly;
- Applies fixes from Quake 4 Tweaker (HARD REQUIREMENT) by default;
- Fixes the problem of sound card not being detected properly by the game via DSOAL technology;
- Increases FOV to more acceptable levels;
- Fixes the slow and clunky movement by replacing it with Quake 2 physics;
- Changes the ugly default crosshair and replaces it with the classic white cross from Quake 1;
- Enables visual improvements from Sikkmod by default except for HDR (it kills performance);
- Other small tweaks I forgot about that you will thank me later for including.
FOLLOW THESE STEPS CAREFULLY, OR THE FIXING WON'T WORK.
