there are no textures in the first picture because the pak files were missing.
here's a picture with textures (although some textures are not drawn because there's some issue with the shaders)

I'm going for a walk right now, but when I come back, I'll try to fix the nextbundle shader issue.

Dang, you guys are doing awesome! Is there anything you want me to specifically start on? Iv'e been picking at things little by little, but no sign of progress with it yet, but since you got the maps and shaders working maybe I can come in now.

Excellent job!

I fixed some of the texture glitches (and broke the lightmaps...).

However, I fixed the lightmaps later on.

These come from a later engine build that aready has it resolved:

Thanks, guys.

Yes you did see the Quake logo, our engine is not self-capable yet.

I've been working on terrain rendering today and got some sloppy results. It's not functional yet, but not bad for a start, especially considering the fact I coded this feature entirely from scratch. Here's a screenshot - the black crap is the terrain, everywhere around it there's the hall of mirrors effect:

So far there seems to be no performance impact at all, even though the renderer is a brute force one (i.e. it does not try to reduce the triangle count).

so will this run faster than the original?

Thanks

Not necessarily, but it's possible it will. My point was that despite quite a large number of new triangles and vertices being added to the scene the game didn't feel any slower than without the terrain being drawn.
