Quake 4 texturing and normal mapping!!

Post by **Pectabyte** » Mon May 21, 2007 3:45 am

I've been mapping for Q3A for a while using GTKradiant 1.5. I am also familiar on normal mapping. If I have a standard texture and a normal map to compliment it how do I get both into Quake 4's editor and working properly? I.E. Displaying on my brushes in game?

You need to write a material file. see example
/materials/yourfile.mtr

textures/pectabyte/texture
{
diffusemap textures/pectabyte/texture1_d.tga
specularmap textures/pectabyte/texture1_s.tga
bumpmap textures/pectabyte/texture1_local.tga
ger_editorimage textures/pectabyte/texture1_d.tga
}

you will now be able so the texture in the editor

bit of a typo there:
qer_editorimage, as opposed to ger_

/materials is the folder in the baseq4 folder where my .mtr file must be right? It cannot be in /textures ?
