Underdark Overbright
An episode with seven medium-sized levels plus remixed/remake versions of the original start and end maps. Mostly Wizard/Medieval/Runic style textures; the map sources are included. The episode accompanies the release of the Copper mod and serves as a showcase for the changes.

ABOUT - COPPER MOD
By the end of Quake's development in 1996, the id software team were burned out and just wanted to ship something and take a break (something I've come to understand quite a bit as a game developer), and Quake became a compelling but hurried Doom clone sewn together from dark fantasy. Over the years since, several high-profile single-player mods have sought to expand Quake's breadth, perceiving problems in its design as gaps that need to be filled and new content as the solution. I wanted to instead polish Quake's existing gameplay the way id might have if they'd taken the time to do so, to improve its depth and clarity as much as possible before considering what could be built on its foundation.

Copper is therefore meant to be "Vanilla+", targeted at being a drop-in improvement to stock /id1/ gameplay and an equally suitable basis for new mods. It neither adds nor replaces any items, weapons, or monsters. It is not intended to be a kitchen-sink supermod like Quoth or Arcane Dimensions, nor move Quake towards a new vision other than what it already is trying to be.

A summary, if you'd like to just get the broad strokes and go play:

Weapons fire is not blocked by monsters in death animations
Ring of Shadows makes enemies less accurate in combat
Vore missiles have a less-than-perfect turn rate
Ogres are 'partially' Z-aware
Zombie edge cases are fixed
Nightmare skill is 50 max HP instead of turret-monsters
Cooperative limits respawns and makes death dangerous
Plenty of bug fixes and other thoughtful adjustments
