I WANT A NEW BLACK & WHITE GAME!
There's this project, but I don't know how far they've come https://github.com/openblack/openblack

Who owns the rights to this? Because I'm BEGGING for a REMASTER!
Few people are remaking the engine, the project is called openblack. The project is still in very early development but the idea behind it is the same as openmw for morrowind. It will still require a copy of the original game, but I hope this will make it easier for modders to eventually remaster the graphics.

Study Shows Anti-Piracy Ads Often Made People Pirate More
I came across an open-source remake of Black & White (2001) yesterday, but to run it, you need the data files from the original game.

- Openblack: Open-source Black and White (2001) written in modern C++ and modern rendering engines (OpenGL, Vulkan)

Quake Brutalist Jam II
> Personally, I prefer https://github.com/Novum/vkQuake because it allows disabling texture smoothing.
All hardware-accelerated Quake source ports that I'm aware of allow you to disable texture smoothing, going all the way back to the original GL Quake (if not earlier).
It was historically set through the console (rather than through a graphical menu), via the `gl_texturemode_ command
On modern hardware capable of trilinear filtering, the appropriate texturemode to disable texture smoothing (which keeping the other niceties of hardware acceleration was
gl_texturemode "GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_LINEAR"
For the Ironwail engine, which is the currently preferred Quake source port for modern 3D hardware, options on whether or not to use texture smoothing (and other "retro" aesthetics like whether to use square or circular particles) are things that can be toggled in the video configuration menu.

Are there Open Source Games?
That last one is an open source engine for a trio of existing free games, but if we count open source engines for commercial games the amount of famous examples grows exponentially. All id Software games up to Doom 3 have had their engines made open source and have a huge number of modern versions available for all of them. So Arcane Dimensions, the greatest by a mile Quake campaign ever made, was completed just three years ago and you need a modern open source engine like vkQuake to play it - even the Quake Remastered engine can't handle the huge AD maps. There's also an open source Morrowind engine, an open source Freespace 1/2 engine (Diaspora above actually runs on this), an open source point and click engine called ScummVM that runs so many old adventure games it's almost an emulator...

Elevator Jank - why does this happen and how do I fix it?
A better solution - and one that lets you run the game at any arbitrary framerate you want - is to switch to a fork of quakespasm with framerate independent physics. I'd strongly recommend playing with Ironwail, but vkQuake is also a great option. Both of these ports offer significant performance improvements over vanilla quakespasm and some other nice rendering features.

best qauke 1 source port?
If you plan on playing Arcane Dimensions with all features like custom HUD and particles then the best choice is VkQuake. It is also able to play the big and complex maps at very high FPS, which most other source port struggle with.
