thanks, fixed it now.

Bloughsburgh, thanks! :) 

 

Water alpha is a console command, type "r_wateralpha 0.65" to see how it will appear. In the final pack, this will be applied automatically, but it's best to have the same setting while you're making the map to see that it looks OK.

Reminder: if you want to add e.g. lava to your map and have have it opaque, there's a trick you can use. Add a normal lava brush, then create a thin func_illusionary entity with the lava texture enclosing the top surface of the lava brush. There are ways to make this a bit neater using skip textures but it's 99% good enough like this. 

@in your readme, you can instruct the player to set r_wateralpha to whatever value you want. In Quoth you can add an info_command_spawn entity with a "message" key of "r_wateralpha 1" (no quotes). In vanilla Quake *I think* you can do a similar thing with an info_command entity but I haven't been able to get it to work (in AD at least). 

Naitelveni, assuming that's a map you're making, when you compile the map I believe you need to use -transwater as an option for qbsp. Otherwise the water won't be transparent at all (unless a client sets r_novis).

Once the water is transparent then the client's settings for r_wateralpha will determine "how much transparent" it is.

(I could be mistaken about this though, since when it comes to Quake map compiling I'm only a spectator.) 

N�ytt�� hyv�lt�, jatka samaan malliin.

Everyone, maps are looking great 

Sweet man. Looking good.

Naitedawg, don't really like the blue, do really like the rest of it, especially the first shot.

Nice one guys. 

That's exactly how i imagined this request to be.
Outdoor canyons, then inside a temple, then outside again.

Reminds me of Valley of the Kings and a few SS Beta maps. 

Is the deadline midnight on the 30th? If so which time zone etc? I am in Los Angeles. 

yeah my submission won't make it, I'll do a separate release. 

where's quaddicted when I need to play aome oldskool maps for inspiration? 

whatever conversion you need for timezones.

It may take me a day or two to get submissions in but the pack wont be extended beyond this week. 

Is my deadline. I'll give it my best - thanks. 

Playing around with the theme... 

I wonder what is down the holes... 

newhouse: Dude, thats creepy! how did you know im finnish? XD

My progression at the moment: im done with the lights, now im moving on for monsters and triggering and after im done with that I'll probably add some detailing around the map and check for bugs.

Is it ok if i dont include difficulty settings?
Ill 

Love how the bricks catch the light! 

What time zone? 

I am in Pacific Time Zone. Los Angeles. GMT -8 (I think) 

Huomasin miten nimesit noita ryhmi� TB'ss�, ehk� tulevaisuudessa tehd��n yhteisty�t�*

This jam iso going to be quite large, hopefully everyone had enough time for finishing their maps. I have to cut down a lot, since scripting in vanilla Quake is much slower yet how to teleport enemies instead id just spawning then. Also My map included a lot of traps and puzzles.. So that is the reason it might not Be finished 

 

which is to say they're still pretty weak as opposed to crap-crap. Still not gonna fuck around with colored lights until I have more time to fiddle.

Rockwork's still a mess hehe.

Gotta say I love the colors in sock's WAD. 

lpowell,with coloured lights you want to give them alot of white, otherwise the colours will look too saturated. example, if you want a red light, pick a light pink colour, it will look very red in the game. If the colour is too deep the end result looks silly(in my opinnion).

Newhouse, We can most definetly collaborate in the future! :)

Taking a break and watching a playthrough of Ancient Aliens only to see the exact same textures you've been working with. 

I've just googled it, I wasn't aware of it - I haven't really kept up with Doom news since I reinstalled Quake. Sounds fun but the tech parts look very... disco... Nonetheless, I'll try it someday. Thanks for mentioning it.
