Information
Same story for this one as for the textures of ik2k and ikbase, I searched over the internet to see if they were still existing. Surprisingly, it was way easier to obtain them (although in .wad-file) than those of Fingers. There still was the problem of not being able to unzip a .wad file, but after using QuArK it wasn't so tough anymore (weird program though).
The website where I got them from is right here (somehow a doom-archive).
The textures itself were originally aimed for Quake 1, hence why the quality isn't that great (floor textures are only 128p, trims 32p and lights even 16p). Then again, what would you expect after 15 years?
So, the quality isn't outstanding, yet not that bad when used with textures of a similar size (or when aiming for a Quake 1 theme). You can always scale them down by half or quarter (to increase their pixel-appearance) if you want to.
Although there have been stated that the texturepack includes 67 textures, I've increased the number by adding glow-maps (while 1 texture couldn't be ported to .png-format).
There is a second version of this texture pack (called jf2), but it has such restrictive license that there's no use to port it to any Cube Engine 2 at all.

Credits
I would like to thank John Fitzgibbons for these missing textures.
I don't need any credit for this at all and I'm not caring about ratings. I do care about if they would be used in one of your maps. So use them and credit John!
