HOOVER1979 UltraHD Texture Pack

UPDATED: The 3rd demo has most of the textures in a file/folder format with the exception to the final Doom overrides, which are still in PK3 files as I couldn't get GZDoom to detect them in any folder I tried. This means there is a huge boost in performance and 99% of the stuttering/freezing present in the second demo is gone. It is highly recommended that you download the 3rd demo and later demos as they are released so as not to have the stutters caused by GZDoom pulling the textures from PK3 files.

This is the second demo release of my work in progress UltraHD Texture pack for Doom, Doom II, Plutonia Experiment and Evilution.

The texture pack is in 5 files. One main file and 4 game-specific override files. this is not only so that all 4 doom games have their own skies and don't all share Doom 2's skies but because some textures in The Plutonia Experiment and Evilution use the same names as some of the Doom/Doom2 textures. for each game, you will need to load both the main file and the override for your game. For example for Doom 1, you would need to load the main file in a batch file and then the doom 1 override afterwards.

"GZDoom.exe HOOVER1979_UltraHD_Texture_Pack_02042018_Main_file.pk3 HOOVER1979_UltraHD_Texture_Pack_02042018_Doom_1_Override.pk3"

This pack is still a long way from completion and all textures presented in this pack are subject to change. I am teaching myself as I go, and as my skills further develop textures that aren't up to scratch with the developed skills will be remade so the utmost attention to detail and overall quality is upheld.

These textures are of a whopping resolution and this pack is designed for GZDoom. This pack will crash Doomsday/Risen 3D at multiple points with memory allocation errors it is due to some textures/skies being larger then the strict requirements the JDoom engine will allow. I plan to make a Doomsday/Risen3D compatible pack when this one is finished. I also plan on making a bright map pack for the GZDoom pack and a smaller 1k texture pack for low-end machines. I have only tested this pack with the 64bit Gzdoom 3.1 The same crash issues may be present with the 32bit version of GZDoom, but I am unsure of that as I haven't tested this on the 32Bit version of GZDOOM. Use this on the 32bit version at your own risk, and don't be surprised if you get crashes.

If you want to use any of these textures in your own project you are welcome as long as the following conditions are adhered too.

2: You must not claim my work to be your own

My health has declined significantly. My bladder is severely dehydrated and bleeding. My urologist said it's unethical to keep burning blood vessels off and said I need to drink 4L of water a day or I will eventually bleed to death. I struggle to drink water at the best of times, but 4 BLOODY LITRES?!!! I may not live to 50, so I may not survive to finish this mod.

I am still having serious issues with my PC (which is almost inoperable) and am stuck with a laptop that overheats easily, so I still haven't been able to make any textures. I also need to buy Filter Forge librarian, to use Filter Forge in Photoshop. I have no idea if or when I can resume making textures. This frustrates me deeply.

I hope one day you finish this wonderful project. Every time I play a Doom wad that uses original Doom textures, and your textures override them, it's super nice seeing them! Your work really is incredible! There are seriously no other textures that compare to yours for Doom!

Thanks. I just wish I could have my rig working properly to keep working on it. I am having major issues with my rig and also lost my local filter files for Filter Forge, meaning I have to buy Filter Forge librarian which is in US dollars and the Australian dollar is so weak right now.

I am at my wit's end about my PC and on top of that, I had a severe bladder/kidney infection with one of the most feared bacteria around (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus, AKA MRSA). I had to have hospital treatment including heavy pain meds to try to deal with the kidney pain.

I am on the mend now but for the life of me don't know how the hell I got that particular superbug.

I have some bad news. Yesterday my rig has become inoperable as after seconds from booting up the display gets cut and all my fans rev at 100%. I have to get it repaired but am worried I will not be able to afford to get it fixed. I am using my dad's laptop to post this comment, but due to the CPU being hot I can't use the laptop to make textures.

I just found out why my back hurts when I am hunching over my keyboard/mouse. I had scans done and I have a fractured T7 vertebra. I now have to take it easy until it heals (vertebral fractures take up to 3 months to heal, unlike other bones that take 6-8 weeks to heal). Now not only am I unable to do my textures but also can't play my games and am only using my PC for TV (I have an HDTV tuner) and watching movies.

I've had to take a break from texturing altogether. I am dealing with severe anxiety that even medical cannabis isn't touching and I'm having daily panic attacks and can't concentrate and also can't eat.
