Open Quartz was a project to supply GPL’ed artwork in the form of PAK and WAD files to create a fully GPL game based around the GPL’ed Quake sourcecode. This includes models, maps, sound effects and textures.

Open Quartz stopped however on August 1st, 2004, the date of the last available package.

OpenQuartz 2 is the next generation GPL content, being Open Quartz’s sequel. OpenQuartz 2 will provide fully GPL’ed textures, sound effects, fonts and graphics for the original Quake 1 game. The latest events regarding Quake 1 revitalization, and the QSB, drove me to start releasing this Open Quartz sequel.
