After many years I still remember my login here .

Wouldn't mind joining this Discord server to catch up on things in a more casual setting.

Taking those German Language classes definitely was worth it .

You basically just create a patch-mesh and mold the vertexes in a shape that resembles a curve to that of the corner. Anytime you are dealing with patches you have to seal them off by creating a caulk hull around them so your map doesn't generate leaks. Alternatively, you could just use the clipper ...

Try using one of the default liquid textures by ID Software. Black and white grid is usually associated with the texture being missing / can't be found. Or there could also be a shader conflict with another .pk3 that has the same texture being used.

Stairs are mainly made up of rectangular brushes either in size 8 or 16 units. The maximum step size bots can use are 18 units, but to make a smooth stairway I'd suggest using 8 units. You can also make curved stairways by just creating curved patch meshes and then clipping them to make steps. Ramps...

GTK Radiant should have the latest q3map2 in-built with its respective version. However, texture alignment is done through the editor, not within the compile process? (Am I missing something here?).

Here is a link to one of the sites: http://q3map2.robotrenegade.com/

I also see a few other maps on there from authors such as wviperw, Nunuk, and Evilair that were converted by random people. I'm not entirely sure if this is legal, considering that permissions were probably not sought out, or the fact that anyone is free to convert standard Q3 maps to Quake Live wit...

I gave up... of the map, maybe also of the plugin, to restore mapping for Doom and Unreal Tournament. If you give up (permanently) so easily, you are never going to get the experience and achieve the satisfaction of finishing a WIP. I suggest making a single thread per map, that way you are going t...

Is this map still "in the freeze" or have you been doing some ninja updates over the past 4 months?

Why hello there. I would like to have this:


Title: Reality is a lie.

Thank you.

If you mean "What can I do to further enhance my map?" then there are a few general ideas I have in mind. By watching the trailer, I see some rather large and open distances in the mid-section which would most likely lead into total railgun domination and camping - especially since you pla...

Strange is that it all works for me, I just use GtkRadiant inbuilt AAS and compiler and no errors I think... Though probably that's just because I have retail Quake 3 instead of QL. Anyway, instead of HexEdit I would recommend XVI32, it's simple and still advanced. (Just recommendation! Don't need ...

There is a major issue with gusq3ctf3 of the fact that it crashes the game when trying to scroll through the 'skirmish' menu for the map. Fix any errors within the map and re-compile as the error message had something to do with 'at compile time' errors. I've tried your gusq3dm6 map and I'm not real...

I made a last attempt called gusq3ctf3, but the spawns are bugged for some reason... (people spawns at the wrong base) Use the team_CTF_blueplayer and team_CTF_redplayer entities for the initial spawn locations for blue and red team respectively. team_CTF_bluespawn and team_CTF_redspawn entities ar...

And it looks really basic. Is this your first map? But with "gusq3dm6" meaning 6th DM map...?

Nevertheless, I'm always in stride for map creations by people that may not have that much experience in mapping.

So does this mean if you basically played Quake Live through the standalone client / browser option, you can't play the game anymore since it's only available on Steam? Seems like a punch in the face to all those people, and unfortunately I'm one of them.

Have you tried a fresh installation of GTK Radiant 1.6.4? If not, try reinstalling the program to see if it will fix the issue. Otherwise, try a previous version to see if the issue remains.

If this value is set on 'Wireframe' change it to 'Textured'.

Thanks for the explanation. I've noticed that you use the 'Skip' common texture for all sides of the brush besides the side that has the 'Hint' texture on it. But, when I read the GTK Radiant manual (Essentially the same as the original ID Software manual for Q3 Radiant) it says this: Skip Location:...

I tried doing a search with Google prior to asking but unfortunately didn't get explicit answers to what I was looking for. Thanks for the link, Donkey, really helpful and on-point article. I understand mostly all of the article, however, the problem I'm finding most difficult to understand is seen ...

Is VIS Optimization still being used by mappers to this day? Given the technological advancements from the early 2000's to now, should you even worry about VIS optimization at all? Regardless if it's being used or not, I vaguely recall there being multiple methods of optimizing the VIS component of ...

I'll only post a few things just by judging the screenshots alone. 1st Screenshot: I'd refrain from putting both the Red Armor and Regeneration so close to each other. The Red Armor is one of the highest priority items for FFA / Tourney play, however, team that +100 armor boost with a regeneration t...

At the PG the interesting steps, the first lowest step is dropped into the floor, brushes here can and should be deleted since it looks strange presently. Maybe I should have included more detail in that area of which I'm planning to do in beta. I'm guessing it would make that step that is currentl...

ALPHA 3 Released! Sorry it took so long to bring this new alpha release to your doorstep - Had a break over Christmas and New Years and am back into business. Have updated the OP with the new download link and some screenshots. Will be looking forward to hear from you all once again. Happy Fraggin'

I was thinking before I released alpha 2 that I may have a door-phobia with the release, seems like I was right. Anyway, I have updated the OP on releasing Alpha 2b. I hope that the issue with the doors has now been fixed and thus have also fixed the Line of Sight aspect to the 2nd alpha now. Also, ...
