PainGod Posted April 30, 2002 Posted April 30, 2002 Ok, I haven't mapped since Q3 was brand new so I'm a little rusty... A tecnique I learned was to build a giant cube, hollow it, and you have a squared room to play with. The problem I'm having is that my floor keeps defaulting to water. Even if I texture it as a floor, my guys will happily splish-splash along the metal grating or whatever when I'm testing the map. How do I fix this???? Thanks in advance, Pg
PainGod Posted April 30, 2002 Author Posted April 30, 2002 Still having this issue, plz help someone!
UniKorn Posted April 30, 2002 Posted April 30, 2002 Send it to wrld_unikorn@hotmail.com (mapfile i mean) and I'll check it out.
Vorax Posted April 30, 2002 Posted April 30, 2002 Are you using a custom texture pack? If you are, and they assigned a sound to the texture, it won't work. You will need to edit the shader....open the .shader file and take a look at it. That is likely the problem. Just remove the line pointing at a q3map sound. Raven didn't map these out, it caused me to have to modify 90% of the shaders I was using But, it isn't that hard to fix. - Vorax
PainGod Posted April 30, 2002 Author Posted April 30, 2002 I'll send the file as soon as I get home, and no I'm using the stuff that came with the jk2radient download only.
PainGod Posted May 1, 2002 Author Posted May 1, 2002 Ok I've sent the file. I just got finished building a box room. This time I built all 6 brushes using the floor1 texture, dropped an info_start, bsp'ed it and entered the map. Same exact problem. Sounds like I'm running through water whenever I am moving around on the ground (and when I wall-walk). Just for kicks, I enabled noclip and went onto the 'roof' and walked up there - water. Water everywhere! So it's on all sides of my brushes!!! I am completely stupified. All I am using is what you get with the jk2radient download. Very depressed now.... Pg
camp3r Posted May 1, 2002 Posted May 1, 2002 make sure you're not using a "shader" texture. ie something that doesn't have a white border on it. some of the supplied textures have the water/etc sounds attached to them.
PainGod Posted May 1, 2002 Author Posted May 1, 2002 Ok, that was it. Floor1, which has no ambience to it whatsoever, no color, nothing, just a dull grey FLOOR ... is a shader. What the heck did they do that for? I always thought shaders were for cool gfx, like fire or lasers, fog, lightning or power coupling stuff. Why a simple, grey floor? RRRRAAARRRRGGGHH!!!
