Func_Msgboard: Mapping Help

This is the place to ask about mapping problems, techniques, and bug fixing, and pretty much anything else you want to do in the level editor.

Just use BSP2 - its not tied to the mod.

Looks like I've got recent post blindness.

Carve Functionality ...

#11642 posted by Baker on 2012/01/30 02:03:44

Do any of the following editors have "carve" functionality like Worldcraft:

1. Quark
2. QER (Sikkpin) or GTKRadiant or NetRadiant
3. ToeTag (I didn't see it anywhere)

I'm trying to grasp the concept of how brush splitting occurs in code and with the 3 all being open source.

sikkpin's qe3 and gtkradiant do, as does quark.

I am using NetRadiant (GtkRadiant) and when I right click on the 2d box, and go to func, I am missing some (e.g. func_breakable, and func_door)

Where can I locate and download these files?

I was also interested in finding some 3D models, if anyone ahs any links :)

in quark you can have subtractive brushes and there is a carving function too. and since it is quark you will probably end up with floating point horror in any case.

what game or mod?

#11648 posted by banksy on 2012/01/30 11:40:18

Urban terror

#11649 posted by negke on 2012/01/30 11:50:08

You need the entity def file for Urban Terror (probably on its website). If that one is missing the entities, you can edit the file with a text editor and add them manually. Just follow the pattern the other entities have. Or copy the missing ents from the default Q3A def file.

#11650 posted by banksy on 2012/01/30 11:50:45

Yes i have that, but i dont know where to put it

#11651 posted by banksy on 2012/01/31 05:07:54

I'm running NetRadiant on my mac, and I have tried putting UrbanTerror.def (The file with these functions) in every single folder in radiant, and in Urban Terror, but still nothing???

#11652 posted by digs on 2012/01/31 05:11:21

DEF file are best placed as a standalone game, but not as a mod. And do not forget to add UrbanTerror.game file in the directory "netradiant/games"

#11653 posted by banksy on 2012/01/31 08:52:41

thats the thing though, there is an urban terror game file in my netradiant/games
???

#11654 posted by banksy on 2012/01/31 09:42:08

isn't***

#11655 posted by digs on 2012/01/31 10:36:59

I'm sorry. It seemed to me that Urban Territory it is mod. Have you tried to do as well as for other games?

Urbanterror is standalone

#11658 posted by banksy on 2012/01/31 10:47:31

thanks for the link negke.
Though still nothing... maybe im just not placing folders in right area.
also, anyone know where i can find some pre-colured/textured models?

#11659 posted by banksy on 2012/02/01 08:21:15

Ok, i found out ow to do it. You need to right click on Netradiant App, then click "Show Package Contents, you then go to Contents>MacOS>Install>q3.game then place urbanterror.def in there

anyone know where i can find some pre-colured/textured models?

Now i have another problem. I have been working on a map for a long time, then one time i saved it as usual, and exit radiant. Then next time i load the map, the map is empty. Like all brushes had disappeared. I was very distressed, so I made another map, making sure I saved all the time, then today I exit, and came back later, and same thing happened.

What's going on???

#11661 posted by necros on 2012/02/01 21:09:53

you're on mac then?

have you tested it by opening up finder window to your save folder, and then saving?
does a file appear at all?
if it was w7, i'd say it was a permission problem... but maybe it's saving into /library instead of /user? just guessing here...

#11662 posted by negke on 2012/02/01 21:23:49

Could also be a case where Radiant has a problem with the entity definitions (improperly configured, syntax error, missing something). Or simply filters activated?

As for the models, just try the ones that come with UT. Not sure if you just need to point the program to the right folder/pk3 or actually have to extract them. Also may need to adjust config xml.

#11663 posted by banksy on 2012/02/02 06:25:06

Yes I am on a mac.
I will describe the situation.
I was making a map. And I had been saving all day. Then i saved, and quit Netradiant and had dinner. Then I came back opened Netradiant, and both my map, and the autosave would not have any brushes or models in the map. This is really weird, as it was only this map. All my other maps from ages ago still worked fine.

Also, i save my maps to my desktop, which has worked fine in the past. This error only really happened after i updated X11
