Func_Msgboard: Fullbright Patches For Existing Maps

Posted by chedap on 2019/09/29 09:45:59

Hard to believe Quake is 23 with all that fullbright acne all over the place. And while I think some of you mapping folk should really know better by now, even that's not going to help the maps released during the dark age of GLQuake.

From what I can tell, no one else seems to have bothered in all these years, so I decided to step up and comb through 150-ish top maps on Quaddicted to produce fullbright "patches". I'll keep at it, but that seems like a reasonable starting point.

I'm also putting up some tools I've cobbled together to mostly automate the task. So now you can fix things yourself - even if you know nothing about scripts, mapping, modelling or texturing - in about 10 mouse clicks.

There seems to be something wrong/missing with skin exports. Python doesn't seem to be included. Even if you install it manually, the script yields an error with mdl_extract_skins.py, saying "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'qmdl'".

The readme says about those scripts:

"These last two are only needed for operations on models. They are written by me and require Python 3.6+ with Pillow and qmdl installed (tomeofpreach.wordpress.com/qmdl)"
