I haven't played it, but it looks beautiful, foogs.

The megahealth seems out of place. I guess I would've expected that the megahealth be on a platform or stylish place, and not just on top of a couple of beams.

I noticed that you have some items placed right at the edges. Is this because to allow players to grab those items without actually landing there? Isn't that a little too forgiving?

I've been out of the quake scene for some time, so I don't know if that's a trend now, to be so forgiving like that. 

I'd say the quake scene is pretty forgiving. 

That looks really good.

Are you sure about that black sky? I'd just put a ceiling there, myself. 

Be sure to release the source when it's done so somebody willing can make a SP version... 

I wrote up a quick OBJ to MAP convertor program so I could do stuff in Modo and import it into TrenchBroom. First test - successful!

The little "S" shape was modeled in Modo and converted ... It's alive. ALIIIVE!!

Granted, there's no texturing info but, hey, the brush shapes are better than nothing...

dude... that's... really awesome. 

It's the simplest conversion possible so it isn't like it's breaking up a mesh into convex chunks ... you have to build like you build in Quake. But at least you can use a high end set of modeling tools to do it...

ah ok, that's still really cool though. :) 

That is something that I keep coming back to for several interesting applications in TB. If I ever get it working, it could be used to turn obj into brushes as well I imagine. 

More quick fun testing : https://dl.dropbox.com/u/161473/Misc/QuakeStuff2.jpg

I tried for a long time to get it to work as I wanted that feature for ToeTag. I could never get it to work even remotely reliably. Now, granted, I'm awful at that kind of code so you may have better luck.

If you DO ever get it working, it'll be a Quake editing renaissance. :) 

more flexible vertex editing. Would be great if you could push a vertex inward and magically create new brushes, and re-merge them when you move the vertex back out again. But yeah, it's very complicated. 

...

I can imagine some really interesting maps coming out of all these new toys!

I always like individual broken brick-work. Good sky texture too. 

Looks great! I've been mapping too, but not with Trenchbroom unfortunately. But with 1.05 now in my possession, who's to say. 

addon =)

Now go map some more broom. 

2013 mapping clich� will now be "terrain maps!"

Look what you've done Sleepwalkr, stifling creativity in the community ;)

Map looks cool scampie, finish it, bitch. 

How about you show us how to avoid the clich�s, eh? ;-)
