why would people here not help you? Even the jerks around here are addicted enough to quake to help anyone as long as they get their quake fix ;)

Seriously though peeps are cool around here and will help mappers out, even going to lengths like editing the map files for you and bug fixing :) 

This should now be fixed in the Jury-Rigged BJP Tools as well.

Test-Build ( will likely become main package soon )

Detail-Brushes should help even in open maps, as their portals will not complicate the vis calculations.

I just tried this and there was no change to the marksurfaces count. When I tested the Tyrutils v.14 version last night, I got almost a 5% increase in marksurfaces. 

Maybe I should move my map away from that boundry point. 

are you guys going to give me my map file that you changed around? or should I continue on the one I currently have? 

Just substituted a bunch of textures, saved it in Netradiant, and compiled with Tyrutils v.14

Yes, you need to center the map. Right now it's mostly in the bottom right quadrant and actually extends past the 4096 limit along the right side. Select the entire map and, looking down on it from above, move everything about 1024 units toward the upper left. Not real sure how Trenchbroom views work, as an angle, move everything in the 135 degree direction. 

I'll do that if I have time. 

I just had to get rid of the leaks in my map and compile it. AND EVERYTHING IS WORKING! There's still tiny bugs I can fix but I can't thank you guys enough for helping me fix my first map! I'm starting to love this community! :) 

 

When I try to play a map I'm working on I get the following error from fitz and quakespasm:

Compile Error:
FGD - doesn't need to be merged, but doesn't seem to have everything included?
Mod_LoadBrushModel: maps/smqx11_drew_rumble.bsp has wrong version number (1112756274 should be 29) 

dr who stole the telephone cabin.

so, let there are going to be more screenshots 

Looking good, But I think it would be better replacing the textures on the rocks to make it look natural. Just my opinion on that. 

with different textures 

Same sort of comment; I'd go with a stone blocks type of texture for the castle walls, and something more like rock and less like sand for the island it's on. That said, looks very impressive with all the little details, the Arabian-style arch on the bridge is interesting too. 

texture alignment is for mere mortals

markus? 

and that's all I'm gonna say about it. 

Texture of the rocks looks a bit flat indeed.
I'm more concerned about the broad space, as it is only a small part of what happens inside.

Strange the alignment crashes while changing the map from Radiant1.5 to Quark6.4.
I had to start again several times because all rockshapes were scrambled. 

but I do like the look fo the castle! 

 

but I have done a bit of work today...

Had to rework areas a few times, creating map 1 of the episode was easier but that's probably because I now have more experience with making something good with the base texture set. 

Something weird going on with textures in shot 2 though?
Anyways, looking forward to this!
