If you want more info on Q1 GtkR then you'll have to come onto irc.gamesnet.net #terrafusion (or irc.telefragged.com #qeradiant) and ask SmallPileofGibs. I haven't tried it yet so this is all just stuff I've heard people say. 

Was made in the q1beta of gtkrad.

It works fine, its just that the editor needs to be able to load wad files, atm u have to type the name of the textxure onto the brush :/ 

does it work the same way (besides textures) that the regular gtkr does?

what do you mean by type the name of the texture onto the brush 

type the name of the texture onto the brush

Ewww. I'll stick to the texture extraction + map conversion method like I did in my sm48. The map sucked, but at least it had a good solid dome. 

currently when you start a map from scratch you have to select the brush/face and bring up its properties, then in the texture box you have to type in the name of the texture you want that brush/face to use.

After you have done that the texture appears on the brush and in the texture window. So basicly you need to do this every time you add a new texture. 

brutal. 

any1 knows of unreal2 textures -> simple bitmap cconverter that handles multipy files 

Found it. Pretty good explorer/converter that supports many games :

treebsp doesn't like aligning textures right. Is there any way to avoid this problem? 

previous posts in this thread (#429 and forward) and see if that helps. Otherwise I need more details (editor, compiler options etc).

You could also try my TxQBSP version, it's very similar to TreeQBSP in performance, capacity etc. 

thanx, that's exactly my case.
I just use WC and compile without those options.

I just haven't seen those posts, cuz wasn't able to visit func for 2 months and then there were TOO many new posts to read them all. 

i know its not really a mapping help, but i need help so i can do some mapping.

anyway. quiver!! the quake1 map editor... does anyone know where i can get a working link? the official site has it down. wrote the dude 2 weeks ago and nothing!! :(

agh. i wanna make maps using my macky. :) 

Yes yes, I am using Quiver at this very moment.... I thought I was the only person on the planet who still did. ;0

Scott Kevill definitely does not give a rat's ass about Quiver anymore, I'm sure he does not have it. I have it of course, but no place to upload it to.

Also, If you have Mac OS X, it is possible to compile GTKRadiant, but that is not for the faint of heart (It runs as an X11 app using Apple's X11, XDarwin, and Fink). read the mailinglists on zerowing.idsoftware.com for more info on that. 

GTK radiant? agh. i dotn wanna learn a new editor. hehe. damn.

i ahve os x, but its 10.0.4 or something. the first version i think. hehe. damn. i hate apple for making us buy jaguar!! :)

hmm... if i give you the link to an account at briefcase.yahoo, would you upload it for me if its below 5mb? :) man. im desperate. i'd do anything!! (except gay stuff, thats just.... gay)

hehehe. damn. 

If you've been annoyed with the jagged edges in some shadows in Q1, you might want to take a look at my latest Light 1.23 version available at http://user.tninet.se/~xir870k .

There are several new options for various speed/quality combinations. 

Will you be adding support for coloured lighting/.lit files to your light prog at all ? 

whoa aquirRe, you appear to the 'teh r4wk'... i can't wait to try out your light prog, especially the -extra4 you mentioned 

Thanks AguiRe. 

you won't be disappointed.

Abyss: No current plans on coloured lighting. 

it really made an improvement, i ended up with some very smooth edges, will carry on using this i think, it coped with the tyrlite parameters very well 

the new light util is very cool, just been playing with it, makes those shadows look so much nicer.

Recommended to any q1 mapper :) 

Firstly, "Abyss: No current plans on coloured lighting." :(

Secondly, Is there any problems with say compiling with tyrlite, for coloured lighting/generating the .lit file, then compiling using your light prog for the new features -extra4, -soft etc?

I have tried it on a small test map, all seems to be fine, and in the end I get my coloured lighting. 

As long as TyrLite doesn't change the entity contents in a way that information is lost it should work fine, I think. Normally it doesn't.

TyrLite will then first generate both the .lit file and the normal light data lump in the bsp, then my Light would make a 2nd pass generating another light data lump in the bsp replacing the previous one.

It seems like a good idea, Abyss! 

is lighting a map twice. and if the lighting process takes a few hours or more... *shrug* 

Talent, however, is another matter
