models and such please help

[vash_a_2004]

Whats up guys. I need some help. Im makeng a relly big map and when I make it hallow and bsp and then play it, it leaks everywhere. Also i want to know how to make models apear in the sky for instance courisant all those big buildings in the background are models but they are part of the texture, also with tatooine when you use noclip and fly around outside the level you'll see a floating model of tatooine buildings and you'll notice that they are the ones in the background as well. How do you do this ?????

see the thread below for Portal skies - that's what you're after.

Patch up the leaks first and then test it. If you want to set a height limit to your map, then you can just use a normal sky "brush" (or box, though I'm not fond of the term skybox, as it confuses me, lol).

I still dont know how to the make a portal sky with the yavin portal model........ someone help me !!!!!! also does anyone know where to find paths for fog textures??? I looked in assets 0 , 1 , 2 , and 3 but I couldnt find any fog textures. I want to make a world fog with the yavin fog texture, I think its called yavin2 or something. Its located in the brush pull down menu in GTK RAdiant, its located under fog but I need the path???

for the fogs, extract the file: fogs.shader from one of the PK3 files and open it up in notepad, and you'll see a list of all the fogs in the game.

 

For the portal skies, have a look on http://www.map-review.com and you'll find a tutorial under the "tutorials" heading on the bottom left hand corner.

Make sure that structural brushes separate your map from the void everywhere. Filter out entities, detail brushes, and patches (press CTRL+D, CTRL+P, and ALT+2), and make sure you can't see the void from inside your map.

The Jedi Academy editing tools. Check PCgamemods or lucasfiles.

Icarus II comes with the latest build of GTK.

I have a problem with Those gen terain tools. When I extract the metashader it says I need Quake 3 and I dont have it. Is there any other way around this ????

I almost forgot, How to make 2 textures on one brush. How do you do this ???

[Jlowry1974!]

Just select one side at a time and apply the texture you want there. Umm ctrl+shift+left click the side you want to select(or ctrl+left click- can't remember right this sec)
