I'm having issues loading my map up, for some reason every time it compiles and I press a key to launch it just doesn't do anything, never gives me an error or anything. I just checked my output and where my map is located and they are both correct. Here's what I'm getting every time I compile it this is what I get.

Some pics with settings would be good as well.
According to pasted log I see Afterwards it has lightmap generated by light tool, then 2 files (I assume > The system cannot find the file specified. So looks like you need to check your paths? Specifically, for launching game/engine. Hey everyone,
I'm new to Trenchbroom and wanted to make a map with a central elevator that goes up to a new floor, then the player needs to find a switch to let the elevator progress to the next floor. I know you can use doors as elevators, but from what I can see, they can only move between two points. Is there any way to achieve what I want to do here? Thanks! You need will need a mod for that.
I added this feature in Rubicon 2, so it's surely also in Alkaline -- you can set a flag on a func_train to stop at each point waiting to be triggered again. It's spawnflags "1" I'm sure that AD and progs_dump and Copper also have similar features but they may be implemented differently. In original game (ID1) you can't do multiple-floor elevators, at least the ones that are controlled with the buttons to call it up and/or down between the floors.
I know that Mission Pack 2 (ROGUE) has such an elevator, but nobody maps for the Mission Packs. Such elevator is also implemented in "progs_dump" mod: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTbkLP3B2FE progs_dump has the mission pack 2 style of elevators with a good sample map you can study and cut and paste from
AND progs_dump also has the func_train "wait for retrigger" method metlslime refers to as well You can find progs_dump 2 here and version 3 will be coming out next week come hell or high water. No later than the 27th (if all goes as planned) You are welcome to come to the dev Discord and ask questions! https://discord.gg/bd7n4v2Xmj One thing to note is that the trains changed between version 2 and 3 so you'll need to tweak this if you start with 2 and move to 3. Thanks for the recommendations everyone! I'm doing this for a school project and I'm not sure if we're allowed to use mods, so fingers crossed.
Been tinkering with Quake mapping again after
At any rate, using Arcane Dimensions and wanting to start the player with just their axe. I see the "takeweapons" key for the worldspawn but not having a lot of luck getting it to do anything. And Google hits are very thin. Any guidance I could refer to? You may also have a look at the "Holy Quake Mapping Bible" written by aguirRe:
http://bjp.fov120.com/tooltips.txt This text file allowed me to solve 99% of the issues I face when I as mapping (one decade ago) Good read ! Just found the same question on discord.
Give the player a trigger_once hull brush. classname trigger_once target take Another trigger classname target_items items 4096 origin . . . spawnflags 2 targetname take weapon 4096 Player starts with only the axe. Thanks riktoi. With "wait" "-1" on the path_corner you want it to stop at. Train will start again when triggered (again)
I'm trying to compile my quake map and its not working so here's the error.

I'm new to this message board so I might not be posting in the right place. please help I wanna finish my map >:( Something is probably wrong in your setup, like directories or perhaps the paths have spaces in them (they shouldn't). Maybe something changed?
For some reason the QBSP log looks cut off and then immediately VIS log starts. Either way the BSP file either can't be created (maybe some user rights issue like you can't write to that folder or whatever) or is not created due to some other error. Put your tools (qbsp.exe, vis.exe and light.exe) in a directory such as c:\compile\, along with your map file.
Then click start, type CMD, press enter. You should see a command prompt. Type cd c:\compile Then type qbsp gamermap Then, assuming it finishes, type light gamermap If that runs, type vis gamermap then you can copy your map file to quake\id1\maps or wherever your maps directory is. Then you can run Quake, press the tilde key (`), and type map gamermap. The old fashioned way. You will probably find out what the problem is along the way. If not, post your experience here :) My map crashes the Quake Rerelease with this weird error:
kexTaggedMemory::Malloc: failed on allocation of 18446744073709453648 bytes (c:\jenkins-agen\workspace\_ii_silver_athena_quake_i_master\kex3_bastet\source\renderer\r_model.cpp:1145) It's vis'd properly with no warnings or errors and works in quakespasm and qss. Selected everything and moved the map so it's at the center of the grid and now it runs fine.
whenever i use Ctrl-T or click "select touching" in the menu, instead of selecting touching, it deletes the object i originally pressed. What am i doing wrong?
Are you using Radiant? If so, that is expected behavior. The four options -- "select partial tall," "select complete tall," "select touching," and "select inside" -- all assume that you will first draw out a temporary brush that you intend to use only to select "real" brushes. The temp brush then gets deleted as part of the operation.
In Worldcraft and other editors, you can drag a selection box to select brushes and entities. But in Trenchbroom there is no selection tool. So you make a temporary brush then Ctrl+T.
i've been trying to design some elevator shennanigans and the last blocker i am experiencing is a button i have that triggers several targets sharing the same name is also triggering an func_door that itself has no targetname. I don't understand how this button is doing is causing the func_door elevator to move once pressed despite seeming have no direct connection to the elevator. I think I've even recreated the brush at this point, deleted and drawn a new one, and structuralized the old one... it seems like it's a proximity thing, like the button is triggering it just by proximity!??
If doors touch, quake will automatically link them to animate together (so that a two-part door will animate in sync.) Could that be your issue? If so, there is a spawnflag on doors for "don't link", see if that helps.
Thanks for the suggestion, testing this out inevitably lead me to fixing the problem which I think had more to do with some nearby doors. I don't know what about them was the problem exactly... but I had three brushes rising up out of the ground to form a wall, and two of those brushes were grouped as one func_door with the other working as a func_door on its own. Ungrouping these and turning them into one func_door seemed to fix it. Why I had it any other way in the first place I cannot say. But that's another blocker overcome, wooh!
after compiling my map properly (using ericw's tools, i've been doing the fast mode for a bit), a brush that is part of the walkable section of a floating platform bridge I have built it suddenly not solid, causing the player to fall through it. i've tried switching the brush to an entity and back to structural, replacing it with a duplicate, adjusting the geometry. the only thing that makes it solid seems to be placing a duplicate of it directly underneath it - and it does work, the player does not stand on the duplicate's geometry, it's like the brush's geometry is suddenly solid again.
i don't know what's up with this! |
