What's your problem? Desired lighting- Yeah, you do need to do that. Mirrors and Custom Textures- Don't ask me about textures cause I don't know 'em.

"WARNING: textures/fogs/fog.tga has empty alpha channel" And when I ignored it and tried to test it, it either a)Crashes my comp to where I have to unplug and replug the comp, or, b)says it has an error and needs to close.Usually, it was the latter.

Obsidian-Jovani Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 You need to make a fxrunner entity. It'll be a blue box. After you place it where you want the fire add the key: fxFile and value: env/small_fire. Next add a light above your fire and change the color by pressing "k" and choosing orange. Compile and be sure to set your sv_pure to 0 (if this is a MP map). All done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgoer Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 Originally posted by OneWingedAngel The only pulgin I have is model You must be using one of the 1.3.x pre-release versions of GtkRadiant. In order to get the rest of the plugins (portal viewer, Bobz Toolz, GtkGenSurf, etc) you need to use a release from the "stable" development tree, I think 1.2.11+1.2.13patch is the most current "stable" release.

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about... A door is made like this... 1) Make a brush the size of your door. 2)Highlight only that brush and right click. Move your cursor over func and then select func_door. 3)Press "N". Put in the variable angle, then put the angel you want for the direction the door opens. 4)If you want it to look smooth, take the brush it's going to open into and cut a hole for the door. You don't have to do anything on both sides of the doors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Originally posted by Leslie Judge Did you read Kengo's thread he posted on that thread too? Here's a correct link to it: http://www.lucasforums.com/showthre...8746#post828746. Who knows, maybe you can find something useful there. Anyway, the solution can be the bigger samplesize (default is 16) for the light process of the compile. If you use JK2Radiant and/or sof2map still then try "bsp FullVis (1/2 LMs)". That will make samplesize 32. On the thread I mentioned they speak about changing the lightgrid size. I think it's not necessary because the error you got wan not "Exceeded max map lightgrid". So I think you can leave it as is. Hehe, I thought I asked this question before...

I know how to do it in Worldspawn, but how do I put it in my pk3 so that others can listen to it? All you do is put your music file in a folder called music inside your pk3 file. Then in the worldspawn make sure you have the correct pathname that points to that music file within your new folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mknote Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 At the start, when I get to General Concepts 101: Lesson 4, I get stuck. After I make the "room," I try to play it. However, even though I tried to place it where it was to be, I can't move. When I start it, I get stuck at the top of the room. How do I get passed this?

The best looking methods involve heavy patchwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
