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.

I have path with 3 path_corner ("wait" "-1"). I made 2 trigger_once for start func_train. But only one works. How to make to move to the next path_corner only in the event?

You can't... wait -1 stops the train permanently.

rubicon 2 source has this feature ... every time it's triggered it starts moving again.

I took a look at your source a while back, I'll add it to progs_dump for the next final release. It keeps coming up so ppl want it.

Quick Question.

I have seen in some maps glass that is transparent and I couldnt find any help on how to do this.
Can anyone tell me how to do something like this?

"alpha" key on brush entities, from 0 (invisible) to 1 (opaque).

Thanks!

Water Fullbright/minlight

#20115 posted by A_COC0NUT on 2019/04/14 22:08:48

Is there any way to make it so water is not a set brightness? I'm using waterfall textures from ikwhite that fall into a vanilla water texture. I need either a way to set the water texture to not be fullbright/minlight or a better texture set for a waterfall into a body of standing water. Thanks for any help.

I have not tried this but you try a func illusionary brush above the liquid with a black texture and set alpha between 0 and 1 (i.e. 0.5) to darken the brush underneath.

Good luck!

Thanks. I'll give that a try.

Different Music Tracks In One Map?

#20122 posted by GunSgtHighway on 2019/04/23 10:48:46

Hi!
I'm still trying to get more atmosphere to different sections in my map.
Does anybody know if there's a mod or something to play different music tracks in a map, activated by a trigger?

Has "trigger_cdtrack"

I'm sure you could look at the QC and use that in your own progs.dat if you did not want to use the whole Mod.

Noob Question About Removing Limits

#20126 posted by Strydom on 2019/04/24 09:24:54

Hi. I am new to mapping, and working on my first quake map, for AD mod. I am using the latest Quakespasm and Trenchbroom 2.
I am about about halfway done with the map, and seem to have hit the limits. When I compile, no lights and everything is dark.
From scouring the net, I understand I need to use BSP2 and sv_protocol 999 ?
How do I do this ? Where do I change these things ?

You 100% do not.

#20128 posted by bal on 2019/04/24 11:57:40

No lights and pitch black map does not sound like something related to hitting any BSP limits, you probably broke something else.
To test bsp2, just put -bsp2 in your qbsp.exe params.

Compile With Light

#20129 posted by Pro Tip on 2019/04/24 14:44:53

Try running LIGHT.exe when you compile. Tends to brighten things up sometimes.
