Is it safe to overwrite v.2020.2 or should I delete it first? And if later, where does TB store building tasks config? 

Any preferences or configurations you've done are stored in a place that depends on your OS.

Windows C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\TrenchBroom

macOS ~/Library/Application Support/TrenchBroom

Linux ~/.TrenchBroom 

I have a problem with textures in the engine. They like small black/white rectangles but in red color. 

Pink/black checkerboard pattern in game is an indication that the textures are missing from the BSP file, which means the compiler probably couldn’t find the wad file, or the wad does not contain all needed textures. 

If you having issues in mapping Quake, always check your paths in your tools.

Thanks to you and ericw for all your hard work on this one. Can't wait to crack this open. 

that is big. thank you for all the hard work! 

TrenchBroom 2022.1 Release Candidate 2 is out: https://github.com/TrenchBroom/TrenchBroom/releases/tag/v2022.1-RC2 - this is just a minor update that adds Quetoo support, more installers for Linux, and one bug fix 

Just in time for your hot summer mapping on the northern hemisphere: TrenchBroom 2022.1 https://github.com/TrenchBroom/TrenchBroom/releases/tag/v2022.1 

So, linked groups are like prefabs? Can we build a few and share with others? 

Geit it here: https://github.com/TrenchBroom/TrenchBroom/releases/tag/v2022.2 

 

MD5 support is huge. Thanks! 

TrenchBroom 2023.1 Release Candidate 1 is out now. This is mostly a bugfix release with a few smaller enhancements. Get it here and don’t forget to report any problems: https://github.com/TrenchBroom/TrenchBroom/releases/tag/v2023.1-RC1 

Thank you SleepwalkR! TrenchBroom is amazing and it is awesome to see it becoming popular across multiple modding communities and also indie game dev circles. 

How close is the q3 support?

Is it close enough that if I put together a theoretical q3 mapping set for TrenchBroom with some asterisks that it would be "worthwhile"?

As I understand it, TrenchBroom uses .def like Radiant. Does it also support .fgd? I only ask because TrenchBroom features have grown over time, I wouldn't be surprised. 

Things missing:

Thanks! 

The only part of those that functionally matters, for creating new maps, is patch editing. For the map format just use "valve 220" which modern compile tools also support. 

I go to start TrenchBroom, get pretty excited since it has evolved since the last time I used (and as a mostly non-mapper that was years ago) ...

I click Quake or Quake 3 ...

TrenchBroom.exe has stopped working.
(TrenchBroom 2023.1 Release Candidate 1)

This is the 32 bit build for Windows, I am on Windows 7 at the moment .. this machine has had previous versions of TrenchBroom on it, it may be possible old config is messing it (where do I need to look?)

Will try prior version and 64 bit ... 

Hmmm ..

64 bit -- TrenchBroom 2023.1 Release Candidate 1

"TrenchBroom.exe has stopped working. "

64 bit -- TrenchBroom 2022.2

This is after I select "Quake". The folder is set to c:\quake ... 

Works fine on my Windows 10 laptop, which is enough for me to do what I'm trying to do here, make a q3 map set for TB.

I like the improvements in TrenchBroom since te last time I used it.

Very nice!

And .fgd support.

Wonderful!

Now I only need to make a .def file if I decide to support Radiant, reigning champion of least user friend map editor ever created.

Anyway, awesome advances in TrenchBroom compared to years ago! 

Note that TB also supports ent files if that helps at all.

This is the second report I get of TB not working on Windows older than Windows 10. Could you post the crash report if you got any? It should be in your home folder.
