The text color could be a little bit brighter. 

Just send Willem an email and ask him to delete the wrongly uploaded files or move them to the right directory. 

i forgot though, this is actually confusing and hard to find -- in addition to the stuff in gl_model.c, the actual UVs are calculated in BuildSurfaceDisplayList, which is in r_brush.c. 

Ok, my bad. 

Thanks! I've got all the texture loading code working now. It was a bit of a nightmare because I made some stupid mistakes and wasted a lot of time searching for really dumb bugs because textures were flipped and colours were wrong. Next step is to correctly assign uvs and textures.

Note that the textures can be stored in the .blend file. This is a pretty nice feature! It's still possible to export them, though I don't know if there is any way to get permission to save files anywhere other than /tmp/ from a python script in blender. For obj compatibility it will probably be needed... and dealing with special characters that aren't compatible with windows file names, like * in liquid texture names :( 

I'll be in Copenhagen for job reasons by June 18th-19th. If any danish mapper wants to meet there... just let me know ;)

Oh, and for all the perverts that think I am trying to date, just shut up :) 

 

... I hope it is not date + Copenhagen in post #22963 that triggered this spamming burst... though... :P 

would have loved to meet you! But I don't live in Copenhagen anymore and the dates you gave is spoken for!
But I hope you will like Denmark anyway! 8-) 

shit slow and hacky code in places, but it works:

Quake .bsp import script that imports hopefully any old .bsp as a textured and uv mapped mesh in Blender.

It's kind of slow. Sorry about that. 1 minute + for very large maps I guess. Still, that's much faster than building by hand :) 

if I don't preview, I know for sure there will be a mistake...

That's really awesome stuff Than. I'm sure that everyone would like to edit BSPs like that, and equally sure it would be a nightmare to actually implement. But I can see a feasible next step for someone who was keen: lighting! I actually suspect that it would be marginally easier to create the lighting in the blender editor and export that back to the BSP. I will admit that I don't know how good the lighting support is in blender though... 

about writing an editor that edits the BSP directly. I'm not sure if it's feasible, though, but I imagine it to be pretty cool. 

direct BSP editing would be pretty sweet, but I suspect making the hulls would be a nightmare with the sorts of geometry people would make 

hmmm... even if you could just load up a bsp mesh and bake new lighting in, it'd be pretty darn awesome. 

I made the script mainly as a way to convert bsp to a standard 3d format and learn python scripting in blender. I do think it might be a good place to start if you want to take some kind of beauty shot render of your map though, since you can add lighting, texture resolution and detail before doing proper renders using cycles or whatever you like. 

I'd love to see some of the classic maps lit properly, maybe I should download this blender thing
