Tenebrae... How easy, and is it worth it?

How hard is the conversion?

I'm not part of the Qmod Community, and haven't worked with mods since my Wolfenstein3D days...

I like the look, but is this conversion process a difficult one?

...AND... are there any mods similar to this for Q2?

I think I have enuff HP for tenebrae (Xp1600/ti4200/128)... and am looking for a shareware or retail copy of Q1 as we speak... If anyone has any links for getting ahold of that, PM me...

all you need to do is install Quake 1 and then download tenebrae, unzip it into this directory(forgot which) and then run their executable to use it. You can download new and better textures and models. It is very easy and looks rather nice. The models look kinda ugly cuz its the same old ones but you can always make new ones or download new ones.
