Doomsday Engine/Build Engine etc, Texture Packs

[andyhamer]

Would any of the myriad of high resolution texture packs available for Doom 1/2, Quake 1/2, Duke Nukem 3D etc work as is on the Pandora, and if not could they ever be made to work?

Not sure. But WOW they look freakin' awesome!

I seriously doubt it: RAM would be a problem.

I seriously doubt it: RAM would be a problem.

Duke was designed at a time when 4MB of RAM was a lot. These textures are about double resolution, so you're looking at 16MB or so. I would be very, very surprised if the Pandora ran out of RAM. Seriously, 256MB is a LOT.

I remember upgrading to 8MB around the time of duke nukem ... Good old 486DX2 66MHz (thats when the turbo button was on )


Most of my friends then already had pentium 90's though
