RichDiesal is a bit old, a tiny bit misleading, and written for Jedi Outcast, but the basic principles are covered really well and it's certainly enough to get you started. You won't run into problems with his inaccuracies until you're well on your way. :)

 

There are also plenty of other forums to check out, such as levelsource.com and map-review.com. Map-Review also has some specific tutorials when you get beyond basic principles and want to learn some other cute tricks.

Perhaps someone could write official "map-review" tuts for all the basics.

Ah, Q4 will most likely be based on the same basic principles. A Q3 tut would only have to be modified, not rewritten, to fit Q4.

 

The real question is when a Q4 Star Wars game would come along, because without THAT, this community is headed downhill. (Well, maybe Republic Commando will help, but with that I've found a game that my computer can't run...$&@# pixel shader 1.1...)

I wouldn't mind trying, but yeah, time would be hard.
