A modification to Quake 2 Delphi that uses Vampyre Imaging to upsample textures using Lanczos filter.
The Lanczos filter gives most visually pleasing results of all upsampling filters. The performance hit is minimal as textures are upsampled during loading (which slows loading a lot).
Also fixed one bug with lighting caused by incorrect porting from C and added blurring / warping the view underwater similar to what happens in software renderer of Q2 and Q1.
I am sorry to say this but it doesn't recognize wide screen monitors, assuming it'll always be 4:3

Sources are included, BUT in delta form, i.e. only the files modified relative to the original Quake2 Delphi sources which you'd have to get elsewhere. You also have to provide Vampyre imaging sources.
I haven't compiled this since 2008.
Needs Turbo Delphi (or, possibly, Delphi 2006?) to build.
Win32 renderer DLL included.
