Talk about anything in here. If you've got something newsworthy, please submit it as news. If it seems borderline, submit it anyway and a mod will either approve it or move the post back to this thread.

I Hate Making Ceilings!

#22788 posted by FifthElephant on 2013/05/10 00:39:44

Anyone else hate making ceilings in their maps?

If you could outsource any part of your map making process what would it be?

heh, I have become quite interested in ceilings recently. there often is some kickass structure hidden up there especially in quake3/-live maps.

Texture Alignment

#22791 posted by Cocerello on 2013/05/10 01:46:23

But mostly in base maps.

With some especific textures that tend to require a very specific brushwork.

Layout

#22792 posted by quakis on 2013/05/10 01:59:43

I love working on the structural side and decorative details of mapping; but putting together a good layout? I lose the ability to think.

appears to have volunteered to do all my ceilings! YAY! ;)

My God...

I don't know. Can I?

I don't know. Can I?

No you cannot due to your double secret probation...

Dear map authors, please test your maps in private before release so you have one release and one release only.

Heh I Did It Too

Well, it's your loss if your map has not one but two pages at the greatest Quake site on the internet and votes and comments are spread. But as Drew said, no reason to care if you don't care, I don't; I like this sentence.

Yeah

#22804 posted by RickyT33 on 2013/05/13 12:01:20

I mean once you notice a bug, you have two options - fix and update, or leave broken.

Sock and myself chose the latter. I can live with the consequences. :)

Just know that it was never my intention from the offset. And you are right - more testing and I could have avoided it.

Quake Font Tool

#22805 posted by FifthElephant on 2013/05/13 19:12:32

Ever wanted a nice easy way to type out the Quake system font? Well, I asked the website admin at NFG to upload the Quake font to his Arcade Font Tool.

Just select the font from the drop down menu and type away -

I always just used this tool, which also gives the proper characters to use in Quake

This

#22807 posted by FifthElephant on 2013/05/13 19:49:48

also includes a speech bubble tool, creates an image at varying sizes etc.
It's more for putting onto images, it's not really intended for making a fancy quake name.

Damn

#22808 posted by erc on 2013/05/15 11:57:22

I woke up to a dreary day with replaying some pre-2000 maps in mind, only to find out that Quaddicted is down (?). Have to dig up that DVD backup again.

#22809 posted by Spirit on 2013/05/15 12:12:57

Sorry, the rest of Fileplanet is being a bitch. No idea why the webserver is dead (is it or is it just slow?) again. Will check later.

Spare Copy Of Borderlands 2

#22810 posted by than on 2013/05/15 14:43:18

I just realised that I bought the 4 pack ages ago and one friend didn't want it and I still have it.

If anyone wants to do a swap for some other game or games of approx equivalent value, let me know (mail andyp.123 on Google Mail).
