ASE and vert 'error'

I could have sworn ASE models could have more that 1000 verts but one I'm testing now is giving me the following error that I've never come across before

Code: Select all

rb_checkoverflow : verts > max (1670 > 1000)
I know it's refering to the model but in relation to ASE's I'm kind of supprised.

The thing is, now that I think about it I've never actually used a model that's over 1000verts before as they've always been small objects or cut up into smaller section for other reasons.

Incidently using -meta in BSP during compile fixes the problem but I'm trying not to use that for 'external use' reasons (use of the BSP outside of Quake 3 - so I don't know what effect -meta has on the BSP and collision data).

I always though q3map_forcemeta was supposed make allowence for big vert count models?

Yeah, thanks for confirming that Kaz. I wasn't sure if I was going mad as this is the 1st time I've actually set GTKRad up 'properly' for an external mod (using the tools but not the engine).

You get so used to doing things a certain way that when you have to think you just hit a brick wall.!
