There are several mappackers outside but none of them is really good.

If anyone feels fancy to code one, this would help a lot of mappers out there.

All *_funcs with the ability to spawn a dynamic model (model2 key) are equipped with a "color" and a "light" key. Dedicated to lit the model this also lits the world around. :eek: Check out my sample map and shit bricks: http://sst13.de/map-d-light.pk3 (25kB) :D The "light&...

Thanks for your suggestions. I tried different blend modes but the result was always too dark or it was fullbright.

The sort values have the problem that weapon marks will be drawn behind the decals.

Decals are awesome, but I run into one problem that I can't figure out why it happens. Dependant on the players vie angle, some decals in my map start to show z-fighting. This usually only happens on axial walls and not on floors. Anyone has similar experience or in idea how to solve this? http://i....

I second that request - i don't want to work without this very useful tool

I remember getting that error when using ClampMap in a shader stage.

Not meaning to thread highjack, but I also have a trigger question, similar to the OP. I want to set up a delayed teleporter. Basically my map is a little tropical island set in an ocean. When players fall in the water I want to teleport then back on to land after a few seconds swimming about. Trig...

Won't work. If you move brushes with a lava/slime shader (on account of the brush being part of a func_ entity) then for some reason the volume of the brush that hurts you isn't moved along with the brush itself. I ran into this problem in my EntityPlus example map, at the end where the lava is dra...

@sock: haha, good one!

Wow, looks really nice sock! The lighting is better than before imo. Textures are great as always.

Only the scale of the marble texture on the pillar looks too big for my taste.

Only those links below are misleading...

I didnt know where to download at first look. The huge "DOWNLOAD" looked like a headline for the following links that are placed under it.

1) Try using a tga file that you it works (some stock tga for example). Same problem? If not, then there is something wrong with your tga (which settings do you use for save).
2) Same effect for jpg files?
3) Do you have an old (and maybe corrupt) version of your texture in another pk3 file?

- Buttons for filters could be useful. Like filtering, patches, entities, models. - Button for loading\unloading portal files (.prt) - Adding buttons for most common used entities like trigger_multible, target_position, info_player_start - the right-click menu can be pain in the ass sometimes. But a...

You can have several func_trains in your maps but there are player interference problems around certain func_rotatings and func_trains. Eraser, you can check if the train also stops at that point if you move there via noclip. Like I had that problem with a func_rotating: I couldnt pass through the b...

Is a func_rotating close by? You could also try to move one of the horizontal path_corners 1u up or down that the train does have to move bit up or down. maybe this will fix it.

Is there some kind of entity (weapon, ammo etc) close that could stop the train?

Yea, really cool o'dium. Only thing: The tip of the fingernail is a bit too shiney.
Hm in general, the whole hand looks a bit too shiney (plastic like) to me.

Eraser, a prediction spawnflag could be cool. So the shooter doesnt aim directly at the players position but at the predicted point. Edit: What is really fun to use is a different grappling_hook style. DF offers the following possibilities: \df_hook_Type [ DEFAULT: 0 RANGE: 0 TO 3 ] - physics - grap...

An option to hide autosave files from the .map list would be nice... That not so easy, because in the standard file-list you can only filter files, by extension. Excluding single files is not possible. Writing my own file-listing will be needed. Not having to switch to the .bsp file in order to lau...
