Map Problems in Q3A

Post by crimsonisland »

First, if some or all this information is posted some whee, plese let me know.

I installed Q3A and the 1.32 release. I installed a several (65-80) maps, then I realized I need Threewave for the textures. I found and downloaded 1.7. Most of the maps showed in the proper game selection screens. I then downloaded several models and unzipped them all at once to my baseq3 folder. One of the screwed up the graphics in the game, but I could not figure out which one. :icon23:

I uninstalled Q3A and Threewave. I reinstalled and patched both, then installed the maps. Now only a few are showing in the menu selection screens.

What happened? I heard that you can repack current pk3 files into another pk3 file to help with the number in the baseq3 file, but how do you do that?

Thanks for any assistance.

On your OWN risk (no support, still beta):

Post of Tubs repacker

This post comes from this thread (opens at the page where Tub posted his zip file).

Some people have reported some errors, for others it works. As far as I know, there never was an update for it.


Another way is to do the hard work yourself... unzip the pk3's then rezip (there seems to be a max limit of 2GB per pk3 after repacking).
