Entities. Any incarnation of radiant throughout its history, from QuakeEd to idStudio. Any form of rotation, though it is most obvious in free rotate.

I'm asking because I've been working with idStudio for three years now and this bug has been there and nobody wants to fix it, and I'm wondering how far back it has been lurking in the codebase.
It would be "hilarious" if this was something that has been there since Q3 days or something and nobody's fixed it because id have just ignored that functionality.

When you describe free rotating entities I automatically think "don't do that," so maybe I learned that because of this bug years and years ago myself, and have since remembered only the lesson and not the cause.

Doom3's builtin radiant let you rotate individual entities, I think, but only Doom3 introduced having the whole transformation matrix for an entity in a keyvalue rather than silly old quake _mangles, and free rotate is the only way to create that keyvalue since you'd be silly to try and type one in. That's probably where the bug was introduced, if I had to guess.

I Frapsed It

This is what happens and I hate it.

Bad framerate because of fraps.

Disappointed it seems to be a relatively recent bug then.

Well, if you hate it, then don't do that.

Oh Ok.

yeah, czg, never seen that. :(

it's pretty tho!

Jam 3 Idea?

#24799 posted by quakis on 2014/09/25 03:58:35

Combining two contrasting map themes together & perhaps the gameplay centres around this combination?

ex; Runic & Nature / Idbase & Medieval / Egyptian & Snow

Perhaps too broad for a Jam though?

Jam 3

i agree with truepurple, zer is da theme
why not? we've got the zer itself, i dont't like the half of the maps though, we've got an additional pak(negke/drew) and thats all folks

definitely zer

tribute to Trinca

Yeah

#24802 posted by oh, that person on 2014/09/25 17:22:02

As ericw told me on #tf, it's probably for the best to keep the jam themes as expansions of existing map packs. Like how jam 1 was an expansion of Honey.

Is there a chance for a new spy map, then??

That would be cool, too. I could imagine an rtGnosis jam. But other than that texture set the amount of Unreal wads is pretty unremarkable.

#24804 posted by spy on 2014/09/25 17:54:54

Jam3 Theme: "The Living End & Elder World Waystation"! I might even map for that.

also sounds open enough and yet evoking a specific theme/feel.

Re Unreal, I thought over the years most the textures had been converted?

As far as i know there is only two texture sets from Unreal on wads for Quake1 (Skycity and Nalicast), with 448 textures counting both of them.

That Unreal 1 Rock Texture

#24817 posted by DaZ on 2014/09/27 14:15:53

Is still the greatest rock texture ever created. You know the one I'm talking about!
