Text hints that they are not giving any game for free. Just mod. That's why they mention having Full or Shareware version.

One thing that has always bothered me about Quake 2 was how some of the weapons just didn't have muzzle flashes when firing. I mean, even Wolfenstein 3d had that (for all of its three weapons...)

I have quake 2 in gog. Unless the RTX thing is available there too, I hope I can just copy over the files and make it work with the steam version of q2 rtx ... if it doesn't run at 15 fps or whatever on my 1070 :P

Great game for its time, sure. But today its an archaic piece of junk. RTX on it is the proverbial lipstick on a pig. Shoot an enemy and he breaks up into pixelated, blocky chunks. Gameplay, combat mechanics is just too primitive for today. What next? RTX on Minecraft?

I think I'd just like to play Q2 again - regardless of the lick of paint it has got.

Is it just me or did the RTX version lose some details in the Nvidia supplied picture?

I wonder if it can be enabled on a GTX 10 series card since they can now do ray tracing albeit slower.

I love how they're selectively using modder's assets for this (textures, etc). Cheeky! I'd like to try it out, although without RTX (my poor GTX 970 would 'splode)

i have quake 2 on disc someplace, but it having ray tracing? isnt gona get me to want to install the game again. dont get me wrong i like quake 2 and the strogg invasion, but I fail to see how quake 2 being as old as it is was good choice to show off ray tracing?, maybe the performance hit being non existent on such old game make good choice?

I'll check it out just to see how it runs and looks.
