^Thanks, nameless hero. 

Hi guys.

Is there any way to fix x an y axis in UV editor.
For some reason the texture in my 45 degree face is
sheared.

If it is angled on more than one axis, it might not be solvable in standard quake map format.

However, in Trenchbroom you should be able to solve it in "Valve Texture Mode"

How do you do this in valve format? 

And how can one change the map format afterwards?
I tried to copy and paste the map to a new valve format map but the editor states an error.

Could not parse clipboard contents: At line 1, column 1: Expected '{', but got string (raw data: 'Texture') 

-convert <fmt>

Convert a .MAP to a different .MAP format. fmt can be: quake, quake2, valve, bp (brush primitives). Conversions to "quake" or "quake2" format may not be able to match the texture alignment in the source map, other conversions are lossless. The converted map is saved to <source map name>-<fmt>.map.

Thank you! 

Pro-tips on lighting your maps when using delay and bounce is out of the question? 

use small, dim lights to fill in shadows cast by bright primary lights. This helps fake the natural bounce that light has. Check out my map sources, none of them use "bounce" and i don't think i use "delay" for anything (but i do use "wait" sometimes, not sure if that is off the table too.) 

also... lights on plane with a surface won't light that surface. So you can do this:

- With a recessed light fixture, place a light in the hollow cubby but co-planar with the larger wall surface. This fills the inside of the cubby but not the surrounding wall.

- Then place a dimmer light out in front of the wall a small amount, to give some light on the wall around the cubby.

- Or, if there is a perpendicular surface, like a floor, place a light on the floor plane, so that you can simulate light bouncing back up onto the wall. It won't light the floor.

- if a spotlight is shining down onto the floor, place a dim light just above the floor to create bounce light on the surrounding walls, this also softens the circular edge of the spotlight. 

Awesome, thanks!

Trying to take a gander underneath the hood, but I can't seem to in either Valve (first image), or Standard. Using the latest Trenchbroom. 

Select Standard mode in the drop-down and it should open. Bal convinced Sleep and ericw to change the default behavior. A decision that has caused confusion for people who want to examine older maps.
