> 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.
This claims it would do the trick: https://github.com/fzwoch/bsp2obj

I also know https://www.halospawns.com/app used to have quake maps (dm6 at least), but can't find it now.

I just learned about this [1] yesterday but seems to be the first data point I've seen regarding something like you describe. Very cool to see, and it definitely blew my mind that things like this are now being developed.

Q2Pro is the standard in the servers. You'd get kicked or see warnings without it:

This is cool.
I'm trying to make a push to get richter/antiquake to compile to wasm. I think I can knock it out this month. I just want to host my own Slide Quake server on a Cloudflare worker.
