my email in my profile, u can send it to me if you wish (send it with a pointfile) 
On 
its way. 
 
just got WC 3.3 - How can I adjust texture brightness? More importantly, I don't seem to be able to select brushes in the 3D view... any way to make that possible? Haven't even tried to compile yet... 
Yeah 
furthermore, I'm currently unable to apply textures... what the fuck? 
Turn Off 
3d accelartion in the options menu - thats some stupid shit default on that does nothing, as far as I can tell. Apart from fuck up moden PC's that is.

That's proably everthing solved, if not (texture correction) then ask Baker. 
Eh 
I fail to see how hardware 3D acceleration is a bad thing, assuming of course that it works. :D

I had the same problem with Stoneless after a certain DirectX version (many years ago). I guess the obvious answer is that they were using functionality that changed or was removed in later versions. 
It Doesn't 
 
Not Being Able To Select Brushes 
I had the same problem with brush selection in the 3d view, and had to downgrade my graphics driver by several versions to get it working again. I'm currently using omega drivers, version 5.12, which might not be the most recent version which work, but were the first ones I found which still did. It's also possible newer drivers fix the problem, it's just too much hassle for me to keep upgrading them to find out. 
Nah WC 3.3 Need Hardware Acceleration. 
Adjust the texture brightness using your graphics cards setup menu.

In WC1.6 hardware acceleration is B00rked from my experience. Use Software

In WC3.3 hardware acceleration is fucked up. It works, you need it, but there is no option for adjusting the texture brightness, which is something that WC1.6 does have with its old slow shitty software renderer.

I use 3.3 for many much debated advantages, I like it and im comfortable with it, but I have had to play around with the settings on my graphics card (Nvidia Controll Center) to get a good brightness/contrast in Worldcraft. I mean how do you have your graphics card set up? 
 
I'm pretty sure Preach nailed it. I've been having to start fitz in window mode and then go fullscreen since I updated my drivers. The brightness I can deal with, but not being able to use the 3d view to map is like not being able to use my hand to scratch my balls. 
It Worked! 
Thanks Preach! 
ATI? 
 
Yep 
 
.pak Files 
I am trying to extract the files from .pak files but am getting a "sharing violation" error with pak explorer. Know of any programs that work in Vista? thx 
St3ady 
That error pops up when the relevant game is running in the background, or you try to open the same .pak again. 
 
heh i guess i didn't think that HLSW (a server listing program) would cause quake to be running in the background. Thanks erc! :) 
Screenshots 
whats a good way to take screenshots in fitz or darkplaces? I want to remove the hud and crosshair and be able to get a good angle, is there a way to go into observer mode in first person? or should i fly and notarget? is there a good .cfg for this? thx 
Copied From My Own: 
Paste these three lines to your autoexec:

alias clean1 "echo Screenshot Mode -ON-; bf; r_drawviewmodel 0; crosshair 0; viewsize 120; fov 120; bind F1 clean2"

alias clean2 "echo Screenshot Mode -OFF-; bf; r_drawviewmodel 1; crosshair 1; viewsize 110; fov 90; bind F1 clean1"

bind "F1" "clean1"

..and change the key (f1) to your liking. The included commands are pretty obvious.

Dunno about an observer mode. I use notarget. 
 
thx erc :) 
Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah 
Damn Quake's 15 characters texture name limit. 
Esc 
anyone experience a weird occurrence where the escape button no longer functions in radiant, i rebooted in order to fix it
i have some other programs running at the same time: -Tread -Firefox -Photoshop -3dsmax
:/
