you might be able to do that with noesis, maybe through an intermediate format.

why not just embed bsp files though? what weird stuff are you building again. 

I've been thinking about that, actually, but the way brushes are defined just doesn't make sense to me. But yeah, it'd be really cool to be able to do that.

Are you trying to convert from brushes into a model or a model into brushes? 

Can convert .map files to .obj model files. It copes with detail ok, anything smaller than 1 grid brush scale is broken but otherwise it is perfect for working out the scale of things. The obj file format can be read by most modelling packages. 

Model to brushwork actually. Would that even work? Some trisoup mess, and what about the skin?
Map to model is easier - I once successfully converted my SM spaceship to a model in some awkward procedure. But it was a poor job, because the touching faces were included as well.

It was just a random thought I had while playing Madfox's map, seeing the Gargoyle. Could make for some nice map objects, and help keep a map proper if Drew runs it with Quoth. 

mdl2map, it definitely existed - see #3884 above. Unfortunately, I cannot find it now. Madfox? 

#3884 in Mapping Help... 

I was thinking primarily model -> map but only as a means of creating planar stuff like tri-souped terrain, not sealed shapes. You'd basically be making the bsp program over again except in reverse. 

proudly announcing a new retexturing project. I have hired a re-owned artist to implement a faithful high resolution wizard.wad texture set. you have probably seen some of her art recently.

as you can see this is nothing like the usual fan made replacements but a careful work based on the originals. not only upping the resolution but also adding details you could only guess earlier. 

this is awesome..... :P 

re-owned? 

Finally we can settle the question of whether Jesus has eyes. 

the second one looks like something from star wars... imagining quake like that gives me a headache 

Can anyone suggest some desktop video & sound capture software (preferably freeware :E)?

I've been using cam studio which is fine for limited stuff but video quality is questionable and it fails to record from my speakers :(

The website claims it has an activated fraps version. Just need to download and install on your computer... though... 

I've already got a legit copy of Fraps :P

I mean something that can record my desktop not games :) 

This is how I dealt with the thieves in Skyrim. :P Clicky!

I guess you could pick out the most doped up people at any concert and the results would resemble that ;-)

ta Daz, does indeed look neat :) 

How broken is Windows 7's permissions system? I am download some installer, the browser will launch it once it is done. I browse on, type text and suddenly the form receives no more characters. I can still shift tab fine and use the mouse but no characters. I get mad and think it must be java or flash stealing my input. But what lurks in the taskbar? Some fucking "do you want to execute this file" prompt. Fuck this. 

I had that happen to me a couple of times, too. Very annoying.
