Quake II Enhanced [DX11]



geo-11 fix for Quake II Enhanced, using the DX11 renderer.


Fixed

  • Lighting and shadows.
  • Skyboxes.
  • Added dynamic crosshair depth, but it won't work well in splitscreen local multiplayer.
  • Motion blur.

Installation
  • Install the game and make sure it runs in DX11 mode. The "%USERPROFILE%\Saved Games\Nightdive Studios\Quake II\kexengine.cfg" file should contain this:
    seta r_rhirenderfamily "d3d11"
  • geo-11 fix (with build v0.6.182): download this file and extract its contents in the "Quake II Enhanced" folder, where "quake2ex_gog.exe" is (at least that's the exe name for the GOG version). Remember to edit "d3dxdm.ini" to change your "direct_mode" to the output you need. It's sbs by default. For 3D Vision monitors, "direct_mode = nvidia_dx9" is the only one that works (in both borderless and fullscreen).

Hotkeys
  • F1: three convergence presets. By default the middle preset is used.
  • F2: static HUD depth presets (0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%). 0% by default. Crosshairs are dynamic, so they are not included in this hotkey.
