Q3map2 64bit
Posted: Sun Sep 04, 2016 3:53 am
So after God knows how long of mapping with idtech3, I discovered some new stuff.
Mostly I discovered I really should read posts by Obsidian more often!
In a final push to finish my damn map, adding Hipshot's lovely launch pads, I once again hit some limitations. This time Q3map2 spat out a safe_malloc error.
After a bit of enforced research, I discovered there is now a 64bit version of Q3map2. Really? We got such things? Like I said, I really should pay more attention to Obsidian's posts about GTKr 1.6!
I had to drop a missing dll into the 64bit q3map2 folder in GTK 1.6 directory, is that normal?
Anyway, everything is good and I learned something new.
On the subject of learning new stuff, after many years of using q3toolkit, I also only just discovered it supports multiple q3map2 locations...I have to say, what a brilliant option that is. Toolkit is Eraser's baby, right? That feature alone is genius
