Thanks, looks like the editor runs that map absolutely smoothly. But can you give me the texture wad? There seems to be a glitch with the textures and I'd like to check it out.

I would have to extract it from the BSP. Can you do that? TexMex or similar on OS X?
No
#21364 posted by SleepwalkR on 2012/02/09 12:06:29
Maybe I can get it to run in my Win7 VM
Yup

That worked fine. Thanks!

Kinn, do you still have the sources for Bastion and Marcher?
I'm sure I must have somewhere, but right now I dunno where the hell they are - probably on a cd stashed in some obscure cupboard in an only partially explored area of my parent's house. I'll have a dig around next time I'm up there.
Cool

That would be awesome, Kinn!

Map Scraps
#21370 posted by Zwiffle on 2012/02/10 21:32:21
Is there enough interest (ie, any at all) for a map scrap dump + mapping project? Or maybe just a map scrap dump?
Even a small project emphasizing pretty set pieces out of scraps would be pretty cool. I know I've got plenty of half-finished maps and the like to provide if anyone is interested.
I'd Sure Like To Take A Look

I think some people already posted scraps in the GPL thread. Tronyn and czg have or had zip with a whole bunch of unfinished stuff. Mostly useless, but some nice bits, too.
I'm hesitant with advocating a scrap dump, because I fear necros might just throw out all his unfinished stuff, and that must not happen! ;)

If you want to pass that metal map back and forth, I can play ball with you ;-)

I think I have actually used almost all of my own scraps up in various maps over the last few years. I could still find the zip file somewhere and upload it though, but I expect anyone who has a look to recognize most of the scraps from actual map releases. If anyone has CZG scraps though, that'd be awesome.

Random request/suggestion for Quaketastic. Can you change the date display to also show the year a file was uploaded? Right now it's kind of useless without. Also, this may be just a personal peeve, but I hate the image previews/thumbnails on folders (main index). They should be shown only for the image file itself inside the folder.
#21376 posted by JneeraZ on 2012/02/12 18:59:57
You can change the image thumbnails showing up or not yourself - use the options combo box thing at the top. It's un-intuitive as hell but you'll figure it out :).
I can look into the date thing when I get some time...
Great
#21377 posted by negke on 2012/02/12 19:05:13
Ah, I never noticed the options menu. Though it's already too late (harm's been done) when I'm on the site. Besides, I assume it requires cookies to make them stay off?
#21378 posted by JneeraZ on 2012/02/12 19:11:32
Hey, that was easy! OK, year is now displayed and I went ahead and added 100MB to the upload limit since some people complained in the past.
#21379 posted by JneeraZ on 2012/02/12 19:14:17
OK, and I changed it so the folder thumbnails default to off now...
Thanks!
#21380 posted by negke on 2012/02/12 19:45:53
Now that's what I call proper service.
I Thought This Was Quite Cool

Just some dudes thoughts on the original Doom, but its well researched and interesting.
#21382 posted by JneeraZ on 2012/02/13 14:22:02
That WAS really good, thanks!
Yeah, Tis Good

Well, except for "'wolfenshteen' if you're pedantic"... :|

Listening to him talk reminded me of my early feelings about Doom and Quake and what drew me to them so strongly. Nice memory walk...
Yeah went over good stuff. His analysis of Half-Life is a bit off though imo. I agree with the stuff about Alyx (good character by not being a bad one), but as comments point out he doesn't place HL1 into the context of shooters at the time, nor does he appear to particularly like variety or the adventure elements, which is one of the reasons I find HL doesn't get boring compared to stuff like CoD etc.

.....and they still give it 9 out of 10.
The first part of the written review also, talks about how they player doesn't get many character customization options, and that the tutorial element is severely lacking.
..... and they still give it a 9 out of 10.
Unbelievable.
