I've transferred the domain and linode server to Acts19Quiz, right now the DNS change is processing, so the domain isn't quite working, but hopefully that will be resolved in the next few days

I'm planning on handing over ifocserv to Acts19Quiz, the domain and the server.

I guess it's a good thing I didn't end up hosting the CQFF.

Some things have changed in my life over the past year (all good things) and to be honest, I don't really play video games that much anymore. It wasn't an easy decision to hand over the server, I definitely have a lot of good memories playing Doom/chex on there and hopefully you do too!

I think the server will be in better hands with somebody like Acts19Quiz who actually plays the games sometimes. I don't have a switchover date right now, but it should be happening pretty soon.

There shouldn't be any loss of files on the ftp, but there might be a bit of downtime while I transfer the linode and the domain name to him.

TEXTURES

SKIES AND BACKGROUNDS

Sky (knik1985) https://opengameart.org/content/sky-7 A dark stormy sky and some light puffy clouds that might look good in a skybox.


EVERYTHING ELSE

Zortch Unused Textures (mutantleg) https://opengameart.org/content/zortch-unused-textures Despite the title, most of these textures would be more at home in DooM than Chex Quest but many may be useful.

Zortch Unused Textures 2 (mutantleg) https://opengameart.org/content/zortch-unused-textures-2 As above these tend to be more DooMish than Chexy, but there are some nice computers.

Making your own stuff for CQ mods is hard, and swiping stuff from other people is bad juju.  >:(

There is a lot of public domain stuff on the internet, but it is in a variety of styles, most of which do not match the style of Chex Quest, and if it doesn't look or sound good in Chex Quest then it is not worth using.  :(

To make life easier, this thread is a list of public domain (CC0) graphics, music, and sounds that match the Chex Quest aesthetic or can be modified to do so.

Feel free to post anything else you find that is Chex Quest compatible.  Make absolutely sure it is in the public domain.

Whilst looking for a DooM meme called "WooD" (DooM logo upside-down, Marine with the chainsaw in a forest), I stumbled across a utility for DooM that generates tree sprites or voxels.  Since it can be useful for Chex Quest as well, I will add it here.
