Quake3World

This is a news brake to say that ,i, CrinklyArse, have made my first successful room using GTK Radient!!!!!!

An amazing screenshot (i know its great but try to hold in the tears of joy please):



now there is the great task ahead of linking it to another room....
i may need another drink...

best box ever!

You are now forever lost. There is no turning back from whence you came.

Looks good mang! Took me alot longer than one day thought to figure out how to create a light map though. :icon19:

i better get started then

N1, glad to see you have started mapping!

Wait until you get your first frag in your first room. The rush is incredible!

Weird, first time i started mapping it was a fullout ctf-map with reasonable lighting and some good bots and gameplay but man it was ugly texturelike. I could do some neat tricks now but NEVER EVER ask me to texture something.

yet you still won worst map ever...

o couple of questions while im on:

how do i do a map in the open, like a space one or somethin? how do i do skies?heck, how do i do anythin except from little rooms? any1 got any realy gd tutorials?

p.s :please no one link me to the sticky, ive been there

edit: 'm sure you guys have seen this before but i mean open areas and shizzle like this:

Remember first time i started mapping i wasn't trying to win worst map and it was what 2,5 years ago. Like i said in that thread i haven't mapped in a long time.

Skies are boxes but usually with shaders on them or skyboxes which are boxes with still images. No linky though

Woohoo i'm the devil :icon34:

i will have to experiment on my own until someone finds some or i find some
Remember if you find any post them here straight away!
Also, another question can you take maps that are already in the game and edit them eg, add bits on etc If you can then please can you tell me how?
thnx very much

Holy crap man! That is a hell of a box. Can I make music for it? It'll just be one chord...

Like maybe search the LINK THREAD for skybox or sky my pal. ctrl+f is your friend too.

I can see it already, make me hear it now :icon31:

your all just jealous...

start searching the linkthread boxboy. I expect great deeds from you.

i am searching it!!!!!!!
can you tell me about editing already made maps though?

Impossible unless you get a program that converts them back to map files and then you'll still lose some info. There however is 1 map that comes with the installation of radiant which you can edit. Just stick with making your own. Much more fun too.

that sux.... than for the info anyways...

edit: i'd love to make one like the screeny i put above.. bet it would take yonks though

i just found this in the sticky, im set for weeks, thnx man!!!!!!!

Chrused. :icon19:

Btw, you make a space map the exact same way you made that box above...just alot bigger.

To make the sky, go to textures/skies.
