Actually, have just slapped together some patches and stuff in the editor, haven't even tried compiling as of yet. May have more by this weekend, since SOMEONE ELSE has been trying to quick and dirty stuff, and I want to, too ;D 
Have To Share This 
it's on a desk in our office but it needs to be pointed out to the world

Heck man thanks for the maps! 
BJP Vis And Light For Linux 
I took the liberty of porting them.

http://qexpo.tastyspleen.net/booth.php?id=157

I'm porting treeqbsp, too, but there are some ... problems.

Enjoy. 
Now Inertia 
build that supercomputer so you can vis our maps for us. And build a web interface for uploading and downloading the bsp:s.

Didn't Willem or someone already enable multithreading? Don't remember.

GB: You're golden. 
Multithreading 
I don't think bjp's vis is threading.

But since we have

a) the source, compiling on *nix
b) people like Lord Havoc and Willem

we might have something like this eventually.

Full source goes up at qexpo tonight or tomorrow. I hope some of the people from 2) or similar get hacking on this soon. (qbsp doesn't compile yet, read PORTING in the source once it is up.)

Bambuz: Thanks. 
Re: #15072 
someone should make a distributed vis app that everyone runs on their computer (like the SETI@home thing) so every mapper can help vis a small bit of whatever map is in the queue.

Even retired mappers, and wanna-bes, and hangers-on can contribute! You can later brag "i vised that really awesome room with the pillars in that really awesome map everyone likes."

Or you could be the one that vised that dull corridor with the unfair trap. It's unpredictable! 
Also... 
Quake on Steam -- was it always this cheap? Quake 1,2,3 and their mission packs for $15:

I Got Quake 
on Steam, just so that I can access it from anywhere in the world.

It's quite handy, but the one downside is that you still need a CD for the music. 
Source Available 
bjptools for Linux here:

please read Changelog and PORTING.

If you can help porting qbsp, contact me.

This Weekend On Steam 
Straight from Steam:

"This weekend only, id Software games are 50% off. This includes the id Super Pack for only $34.99 (over $200 worth of games). Or take 50% off individual titles such as Doom, Quake, Wolfenstein, Commander Keen, Heretic, and Hexen. Offer ends Monday, September 8." 
Yeah... 
I took the id Super Pack, just to make up for the 1 or 2 games I never actually paid (probably heretic and hexen or something). It's really too bad Quake 4 isn't in it, but hey, that's not really an id game. 
Pvp 
... really did go down the tubes, didn't it?

Nice, but please (also) port TxQbsp as it's slightly superior to TreeQbsp. 
Negke 
OK, I included txqbsp. Coolness, this includes even more Windows-specific functions. :-( don't expect it tomorrow. 
TXqbsp 
What exactly does it do better than Treeqbsp?

It seems too hard for me to port because of (insert a number of weird things here). I mean, in Tree I can at least pinpoint the problem :-P 
AguirRe's Tools For Linux 
A full set of AguirRe's compilers has been ported to Linux. Treeqbsp, vis and light compile and work as they should.

http://qexpo.tastyspleen.net/booth.php?id=157

TXqbsp and bspinfo have been included and added to the Makefile, but do not compile yet. If anybody feels particularly brave and wants to help porting them, be my guest.

The next milestone will be to add multithreading to vis and light, following Willem's code.

The tools are open source and the working ones are released under the GPL, in accordance with id Software's re-release under said license.

Enjoy.
