possible a sorting issue for some things like the doors..


if the fogs are cusom made, try playing with the sorting of the green versus the orange and see if that divides them.. ive tried getting water not to draw in front of fog and couldnt get it to work.. though i did give us after a while.. possible has a method which works..


1. are the faces where the two fogs meet the only visible faces of both fogs?

have you put sorting on the door textures so they draw at the back?

where the two fogs meet.. you may not be able to sort them opposing each other properly.. one may be sorted to draw at the back.. but the other wont.. the wize option for that spot is to seperate them. provide a small not filled with fog area, between the two.

Corpse, please try to find your own host for those images. Image uploading is usually used for archival purposes here. We have limited file space on the server. There are a number of free image hosting services on the internet that you can use.

Sort doesn't affect the fog surface itself. Fog is a volumetric effect, not a surface shader. You might be able to force the door to draw above the fog, but it'll draw above everything else too, so it'll look weird.

Fog is a very picky feature with limitations. It must have one and only one face "open" to the rest of the environment. I suspect this isn't the case in your map. If the other side of the door is exposed to "air" and another part of your fog as well, it won't work. Also, fog volumes shouldn't overlap or meet face to face.

Those arches look like they are floating on the fleshy surfaces. Make them look connected to the rest of the structures by adding thin pillars and maybe even a few beams crossing the roof, like a bulkhead.

What exactly do you mean by thin objects? You can change grid by pressing 1-9 or selecting one under Grid in the menu. Zoom in and out with the mousewheel.

Select the patch with Shift+LMB and press 's'. There are options for patches.

Under the menu you can find icons for rotating stuff. Also under 'Modify'.

Thanks, the rotating button works! But Surface inspector just shifts the textures.

There are buttons for fit, natural, set and cap.

Forgot to tell you that you need to press CAP (in surface inspector) 1-3 times.

It's possible then, that you've stretched the patch into a shape that can't be properly mapped. Especially if you have been indiscriminately merging control points.

Don't bother calling tech support when you are running Windows 95.

It was an analogy and you completely missed the point.

Q3Radiant 202 is ancient. If you have problems using it, don't ask people to help you since it is no longer supported and no one uses it anymore.

Probably. Light coloured fog has an additive effect.

Also, it seems that some fog shaders make the texture give off light. I have seen some maps in the past that use fog as light sources.
