You could do it with the standard .map format by using texture names as flags... so a surface with the texture "*texturename*$lm256" or something like that would be flagged in the light compiler as using a 256x256 lightmap res.

Might be a slight pain to work with, but if you're only going to utilize the highres lightmaps in key areas, it shouldn't be too bad to set up

Nice, I really like the lava river ... the organic shoreline with the structure of the pillars works really well. 

Also what Warren said, lava river is the one. 

how big is this and when is it coming? 

Near completion with a few tidbits left to do.

Neat!

What editor are you using? 

Nice, I never say no to new Dook maps. 

Yeah I wanna play it :) 

Hi, I was browsing this thread and came across a screenshot on some blog, I'm trying to find it again. It was of a fairly basic scene, with two views. One with void or dark area, the other with lava. I'm pretty sure it was from this thread, a few pages back. Anyone recall?

The scene is of a corridor with a gap in the floor, which has lava in the second view. I think it's a single image of composed of two shots. 

In post #12241 there's a link to a map from jam5. It crashes my ezquake as it loads, did I install it wrong or is it for another client? 

ezquake is a quakeworld client, it is not meant for singleplayer, it will make you play a different singleplayer, it will not support mods, you should use quakespasm, fitzquake or directq. 

Use sv_progtype and sv_forcenqprogs 

AAS, I can load the map with both of those set to 1 but crash on spawn. With ezquake.

But jam5_hypnos2 doesn't look like the early shots from posts 12087 and 12106 :)

@WarrenM, @Shambler, thanks :)
@Nitin, 2-3 maps from me, no release date yet, still building stuff.

The AD MOD project is also designed to be a resource kit for mappers to play with and luckily MFX is busy creating a new map for AD. 

Looking forward to this MOD, more and more... 

sweet. you + mfx = me very happy.

From my first map. Sorry about the hud. Dig it and get out. 

Well, it looks better than my first map, which was a box covered in textures that came with the qED map editor, that said "qED" on them in big letters.

Pretty hard to see much in that screenshot, but the lighting from the sky looks good, could do with being lighter on the left side of the screen as I can't see anything. I think the engine/texture replacements are getting in the way of seeing whats going on. Looks like you're adding some nice detail to the computer section.

Would recommend downloading an engine such as Fitzquake if you haven't already.
