Could you build this?
No A custom Quake engine rendering pipeline or SRP (Scriptable Render Pipeline) requires deep knowledge of low-level graphics programming, shader authoring, and legacy game engine architecture.
What it would actually take: Requires C# and HLSL/ShaderLab expertise within Unity's Scriptable Render Pipeline architecture to replicate Quake's BSP map parsing, lightmap baking, PVS (potentially visible set) culling, and retro rasterization techniques. The primary challenge is building a custom rendering loop, managing low-level GPU render passes, and correctly handling vintage map asset formats and lighting models.
