Open up the Hoth Siege .mapfile. You will notice above the map a small box with a portal_sky entity in it. You will also note a terrain model inside it. Just copy the whole thing and save it as a prefab under edit. Now load your Hoth map up and import that badboy in there. If you need help with a skyportal go here:

 

PORTALSKY

 

But this portal is already set up nice for ANY HOTH map.

The fog is just the right density now. That PORTAL_SKY makes it look so much better..good stuff man! Let's have a BETA :p

 

Big maps will always take forever to compile. Look at SithJs Kamino map..it's just amazingly oversized. He has the biggest BSP file I have seen...................EVER! 52000kb!!! :eek::drop2:

Ehh...exactly how did you add it in? Did you import it and use that tutorial link? If your map is more than 8000 x 12000 grid units then yes...it will lag unfortunately. Endors outdoor areas collectively are about 12000 x 4000 grid units. I get a 3FPS loss after adding the new portal_sky. If yours is twice as big as mine then double that. 6 FPS loss is quite a bit on a low end card like mine. But on a 128 you might lose 20 or more.

passage memory is so bad on mine i have to fast vis now :p

 

LDJ...use the newest Q3map2 batch file. When you edit your batch file put this switch in the BSP phase:

 

-lomem

 

Will help a TON. ;)

I'd be honored to beta test! :)

 

TK8252MJL @ hotmail.com is my MSN.

 

I'd like to be a beta tester because I love JA Siege more than any other game. I'm always eager when there's a new Siege map in the works, especially a Star Wars-based one. Hoth has always been one of my favorite battles (maybe because the Imperials won :p ) and this one looks very promising. :)

 

I know a guy who would be able to host a server very lag-free; next time I see him I'll ask him about this.
