Didn't get around to trying this out before now, but yes, apparently putting the commands inside quotes work. At least, the compiler seems to recognize the parameters "-extra4" and "-etp" as "Extra 4x4 sampling enabled
Enhanced Texture Positioning enabled" appeared in the compile process window, but "-soft 1" and "-gate 1" gave an "unknown option" error for some reason. Also it didn't seem to make any difference whether I compiled with these parameters or not, here's two comparison shots from compiling with and without: http://i.imgur.com/IlsWS.jpg http://i.imgur.com/36dNX.jpg try compiling from batch files/command prompt, or try my ne_q1spcompiler thing.
i seem to recall running the compilers in the editor console wasn't good for some reason. maybe someone can confirm/refute? Your compiler thing did the trick necros, that's quite a nifty tool you got there! Though I noticed I couldn't choose a map saved as
jt_, soft1 and gate1 also gave the "unknown option" error. Guess the in-editor compiler isn't all that. Also, while I'm at it - know if it's possible to list textures after which wad it appears in with Hammer, like with QuArK? At the moment every texture (1000+) from all the wads I've imported appear at once in the texture browser, which makes it quite tedious to find whatever I'm looking for. no, -soft # and -gate # are the correct syntax.
as for textures, hammer has a filter where you can type in to just show textures with that string. you could rename all your textures from one wad with a prefix of some kind? i don't know much on that score-- hl2 has the filters all set up via scripts as well as filename. so you type c17 and you get all the downtown textures. Yeah I tried adding a suffix to all the textures so I could just type in the suffix and sort them that way, but I'd have to search and replace each texture I've already used in my map with the renamed ones, which I haven't been arsed to do yet. Eh, I'll probably work it out.
there's a program out there that, i think, will batch import tgas into a wad. you could extract the wad, use a batch file renamer (google) then use the batch wad importer. i think baker made it? i just remember seeing it a while ago somewhere, probably i3d.
Yes - work in
What is it that scrags are such fucking divas when it comes to the simple task of flying into a teleporter towards the player???
They are awake and fly back and forth in their closets but they carefully avoid the (touchable) teleport trigger most of the time. And then, when it's too late, they sometimes all teleport in at once.
Are you talking about teleporting in scrags? Why are they awake before they teleport in the first place?
All monsters are woken on map start. They don't have their own teleporter each to save entities and make for a slightly more random spawning effect. I might put a door behind them that slowly pushes them into the teleporter, or just leave it like that as they apprently all do spawn eventually.

I have done very little since the last compile, when this worked just fine. Added a door with a clip brush. It needs at least one brush with a visible texture. Clip brushes in funcs only work if the boundaries are defined by visible brushes.
The TxQBSP program failed with the error:
Entity with no valid brushes or textures on line 15942 What you need to do is go to Map => Check for Problems Then you need to scroll to the bottom and look for something like "entity with no brush". Highlight the error, then click on goto, close the dialogue and press delete. When you press 'goto' or 'mark' (i forget), it will send the 2D view to the middle of the map. I want 6 buttons which will target a trigger_counter. but I want each one to also target an info notnull explosion. I know in Quoth I could simply make target2. Should I be relying on relays here or what?
You'd need to give each button a unique target and give the notnull the corresponding targetname. You'd then need six relays each triggered by one button, so that all the relays target the counter. Each relay has a different targetname, but the same target.
some of the face-coordinates are too close together, and may cause troubles for some build-tools
error Quark6.1 ~ QBSP If I ignore it compiles fine. I couldn't find it in ToolTips. I have some small brushes on lights that are ore only 2 units. If I turn them into func_wall they may be no problem for vis but then I loos my light additions. What can I change, surround it with a brush clip? Re: scrags vs teles
Apparently flymonsters need a little more room to move for said setup to work. The teleport triggers were 8 units wide and placed against the wall. Making the room some 32 units longer, so they are now more in the open, allows the scrags to touch them properly when flying in the direction of the player. Seems they clip differently to the world than walkmonsters or something. this is supposed to be an SM but still having problems here. a trigger, which was targetting a door, is no longer targetting a door. It is set up to do so as any other trigger would be, but it isn't working. any suggestions regarding what could be the problem/questions that might help?
door_dont_link on/off on the doors in question? that will be 90% of the problems with doors. :P
also note, linked doors with a target on each will trigger multiple times, just like unlinked doors. linked doors with the same targetname will have problems too. i think they just don't open if there's an even number of doors.
