oh can you do it in fitz too? cause aguire's engine doesn't have gl_farclip (i think metl added that himself?)

so you could do exactly what i said in fitzquake then. ^_^ 

Note: fitzquake doesn't use the farclip plane to do any visibility culling, so you probably won't get much of a speedup from it. Unless the video card itself discards the polygons more quickly, in which case you might get a speedup on the hardware side. 

aww, oh well. :) 

what is a good (yaw pitch roll) value for skylight? 

Depends on skybox's sun position, but generally yaw is an angle in 0-360 degree range, pitch is a negative value in -90 0 range and roll is null

Just test it, as example by default I use 45, -45, 0 is make the sun rising at 45 degrees on xy plan, with a incidence angle of 45 degree... It can be tuned if you want more/less shadows, more/less angles, etc... 

What's that site again where there are lots of textures ripped from games like Kingpin, Jedi Knight etc? I forgot the link. 

http://downloads.kingpinforever.com/textures/ 

I've already got the Kingpin set, and was pretty sure I got it from Qauddicted . . . 

there are texture sets from several other games as well. No wads but images (tgas and so on). 

but I found out they are rather ugly quality. Apparently all downscaled to 256x256 and somehow the colors look bad too. :( 

http://shub-hub.com/files/textures_wads/undying.rar

I don't know if textures are missing from it as the overall count is fairly low (~200). Most of them look good though. Unusual scale, yeah. Many 256*256 or 128*256 ones. 

you didn't mean Wadfather?

Well just wanted to say that my problem in HexenII (post #6177) is fixed.
Just in the rare case that someone will start a hexen2 map, It is necessary to add a -watervis command to qbsp.exe.
Hexen2 tools are really the worst documented tools, there is NO satisfying documentation avilable 

Know how to make the textures and 3D views a little brighter in WC 3.3?

BTW I changed to WC 3.3 yesterday and it is great, I was reluctant to change but its just as easy to use (if not easier) and the texture alignment bugs I was experiencing with 1.6 are all fixed! 

I used to have a 'mod' a long time ago, when I was about 15 years old and all it was was a progs file. All it did was produce zombie gibs (the ones they hurl I think) which would follow the trajectory of bullets fired into enemies and stick to walls behind, then slowly slide down to the ground, producing good old quake blood particles the whole time. I think it was really cool, but I cant find it anywhere and I wouldnt know where to start in programming it. Does anyone know where I could find such a file, or have the time to 'knock one together'? 

When did The Forge go down? 

It just does that sometimes. A pain in the butt when you need to consult the site but can't. 

I downloaded The Reckoning - the Q2 mission pack - textures (from Quaddicted) but they can't seem to work (wrong format or something) with WC 3.3.

It'd be even easier if I were able to rip the exact set of textures Lunaran used in Lunsp1. 

WC 3.3 has to convert WADs to HLWads in order to use them. If you are using the Quakeadapter package, theres some sort of program with it that automatically converts them for you, located in the program files\worldcraft folder.

Maybe this helps?

Alternatively get a program that rips mips from bsps and converts them into WADs, although WC 3.3 may still have to convert to HLwad to use them. Are you using the Quakeadapter package with 3.3? 

Will only work for Q1 with the Quakeadapter, unless you make your own version. To rip a wad from a bsp use TexMex, though you'll still have to convert it to use with 3.3, and if its bigger than 1024 textures then it won't load at all; you'll have to split it up.

The wads that TexMex creates are automatically usable for any Q1 specific editor - 3.3 was locked for HL1, which is why you need the adapter. 

Yeah, Q1 is the game I was talking about and yeah, Ricky, I found the texture converter and converted them to hlwads.

Thanks. 

Does anyone have scrolling rock/grass textures? 

Does anyone know where I can find Biffs new improved IDbase textures? 

You mean tiling? All should be if they're made for games. In both cases try Quaddicted;

http://www.quaddicted.com/wads/

Not sure if it has what you want, but its hard to imagine it not being there. 

I meant textures that give the illusion they're scrolling, like the waterfall textures (+1_fall etc).
