On occasion, I get the urge to make other content, mostly for Q2, and I figured
this would be a good place to put them, upon completion. As you'll notice, I
enjoy making new icons for my Heads Up Display(HUD) and sometimes I do a bit
of skinning for player models and weapons. I hope someone other than me gets
some use out of this stuff, so if you see anything you like, download it.
Otherwise, if you need something custom done, contact me, Whirlingdervish[Q2C],
and I'll see what we can work out. I'd also appreciate any fresh ideas as they
will help me create better content in the long run.

.PAK Files
Name: The Retro HUD Icon .Pak
DOWNLOAD
Description: This .Pak file contains new custom graphics for your Quake 2 HUD.
All of the weapon/armor/item icons were created by me with MS paint
and Irfanview. In addition, the console backdrop and inventory
window have been customized a bit, along with the new red console
characters and bright green HUD numbers.
I attempted to keep the icons as simple as possible to bring the
retro-gaming feel of early VGA games, while using transparency to
allow the player a slightly less restricted field of view.

Name: The Slick HUD Icon .Pak
DOWNLOAD
Description: This .Pak file contains custom graphics for your Quake 2 HUD.
All of the weapon/armor/item icons were changed by me with MS paint
and Irfanview from the original icons that came with Quake 2.
In addition, the console backdrop and inventory window have been
customized, there are 3 new crosshairs, and I made new bright green
HUD numbers that are much easier to read without taking your
eyes off of the action.
The icons, are much like the originals, but I removed the
worthless boxes that they were represented on, and drastically
increased the amount of viewable screen by doing so.
This is one of the first attempts I made at making new graphics
for Quake 2, and after I realized how simple the process was,
I really began to enjoy skinning for all sorts of stuff.

Name: The NO-HUD Icon .Pak
DOWNLOAD
Description: This .Pak file contains custom graphics for your Quake 2 HUD.
They are all made with the Quake 2 transparent color so that
you can take unhindered screenshots of maps and such.
Just replace your current pak8.pak with this temporarily,
while you are taking screenshots, and none of the weapon
icons or HUD text will show up..

Name: The Tastyspleen.net Themed Console/HUD .Pak
DOWNLOAD
Description: This .Pak file contains custom graphics for your Quake 2 HUD.
I incorporated some other people's work, with a bit of my
own, to bring you this .pak, and I really like how well
the different elements worked together.

The HUD numbers were converted from the Warsow HUD by some
great guys from clan [BTF], Adam and X'tyfe..
The HUD Icons are the ones from my "slick hud pak" that
have been editted from the original q2 icons, to include
a transparent effect instead of the green box background.
The inventory window has been streamlined, and recolored
to match the blue motif of the console characters and backdrop.
The awesome console backdrop was provided by Quest, who
made it for the Tastyspleen Logo contest.

Name: Low Poly Rocket Model .Pak
DOWNLOAD
Description: This .Pak file contains a custom model for the splash
that occurs when a rocket or grenade explodes in Quake 2.
It is made of significantly less polygons than the original,
so it should improve your client's performance and FPS during
heated battles where explosions are going off all around you.

Name: Bright .TGA Armor Skins .Pak
DOWNLOAD
Description: This .Pak file consists of models and skins for the stock
Quake 2 armor models that brightens them up and makes
them supremely identifiable from a distance, even on dark
maps or where you can only see a portion of the model,
without the loss of detail involved in most bright skin paks.

Name: Custom Sound .Pak
DOWNLOAD
Description: This .Pak file consists of some replacement sounds for Q2,
that seem to make the game much easier for me to compete at.
It includes different sounds for each type of armor pickup,
more realistic shotgun firing sounds, a completely new set
of sounds for the hyperblaster/blaster that aren't quite so
loud and annoying, and a very noticeable sound for the Megahealth
pickup. It does NOT contain any timer .wav files though, since
I don't use them.(they're a bit too much like cheating for my taste)
