Is there a modern engine with hi-res support capable of running Q1 and Q2 WADs?

For Quake 1 its Darkplaces[1] or Quakespasm[2] (the former emphasizes more features, but has been dead for some years, the later is meant to be a more honest upgrade). There are HD texture packs like Quake HD[3] and Epsilon[4] on moddb that work with either. All HD modpacks for both games are just like any mappack. For Quake 2 I use Yamagi[5], but there is also KMQuake2[6] which is like Darkplaces from Quake 1. For HRT packs the only one I know of / have used is Berserker[7]. I think all those moddb packages are prebundled with Windows executables. You can just take the data directories and use them with your engine of choice.
