master_thomas Posted June 14, 2003 Author Share Posted June 14, 2003 Okay, but I was hoping for some ideas for the imperial section, which makes up most of the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master_thomas Posted June 23, 2003 Author Share Posted June 23, 2003 I've resumed work and completed resizing (actually, I rebuild the Bespin section). Pictures tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master_thomas Posted June 23, 2003 Author Share Posted June 23, 2003 Oh no. My most hated error. SV: Set Brush Model: NULL. How can I fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master_thomas Posted June 23, 2003 Author Share Posted June 23, 2003 Never mind. I fixed it. The culprit was a door, which had nothing wrong with it that I could notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Business_Eskimo Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 Originally posted by master_thomas Hey, Business_Eskimo; was this what you had in mind earlier? Pretty much. The real reason why i suggested that at all was I was working on a bespin kind of themed SP map myself, and I was doing that. This is what mine looks like: http://www.geocities.com/businesseskimo/shot0023.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lassev Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 Thomas, be sure not to take the habit of making very thin walls (including ceilings). It will give you trouble afterwards. Otherwise your mapping skills are improving. Just keep up the trend of reviewing your work and looking for places and techniques you could improve. It takes time, but is for sure rewarding.

Business_Eskimo Posted July 5, 2003 Share Posted July 5, 2003 Thats sort of odd... have you got it figured out yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master_thomas Posted July 6, 2003 Author Share Posted July 6, 2003 I haven't done any work on the map lately, (last two days were pretty busy) so no. It might be the cause of the weird area portal problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master_thomas Posted July 8, 2003 Author Share Posted July 8, 2003 Okay, I'm not going to get any work done until the Monday after next. This week I'm going to be very busy and the next, I'm going on vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master_thomas Posted July 12, 2003 Author Share Posted July 12, 2003 I had one free day. Yesterday, I wanted to work, but I need some time to plan on the extended Bespin section of AoY2, so I started work on AoY3. It's coming along nicely, but I only have 46 entities and 117 brushes, so there's not much to take pictures of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's coming along nicely, but I only have 46 entities and 117 brushes, so there's not much to take pictures of. It's always a good thing to plan long ahead, but don't overdo it. You'll get maps release sooner, if you finish AoY2 and only then start AoY3. And that also makes sure you don't do any needless work, if you suddenly feel, while mapping AoY2, that something should be changed, something that would affect also the later AoY3. Well, I might not the right person to give this kind of advice, having released nothing But it's just a thought. Nice thing you are mapping as hard as ever. Lighthouse_2 (Lighthouse topside, the last map of the three) has over 7000 brushes and something like 1078 entities. There won't be more brushes, as it's mapped architecturally completely, but some waypoints and cameras are going to add to the entity count, before I'm finished with the last cinematic.

master_thomas Posted July 12, 2003 Author Share Posted July 12, 2003 Lassev, I did go through a major design change and I need to plan that out, but I suddenly have trouble mapping Bespin. I felt like doing something in which I wasn't bound to get it look like somthing that already exists. Everything in AoY2 is figured out, except for the detail placement. AoY3 is planned out as well and I decided to get some work done on that since I'm not doing anything for AoY2. Maybe during my vacation I'll get some inspiration for my Bespin and Imperial sections (one is like cloud city, the other looks like an imperial installation), which are all that's left of AoY2, big, though, they are, once I get to work on them, it'll go fast.

master_thomas Posted July 22, 2003 Author Share Posted July 22, 2003 Well, I'm back from my vacation, which was full of pain, boredom and returning to my house, which was full of flies. I thought about the Bespin section. I decided the banquet room where Han Solo tried to shoot Darth Vader, some carbonite chambers, and I have a strange desire for a large extravagant room, but I don't know what exactly. I could use some ideas for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagBag Posted July 28, 2003 Share Posted July 28, 2003 Well Master Thomas I see this work here and it looks promising. Keep at it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master_thomas Posted August 13, 2003 Author Share Posted August 13, 2003 Well, to those of you who don't know, I've been on hiatus. I was just opening radiant, eager to resume work, when I get "Warning: Line ****** is Incomplete [01]" in the status box over and over again. I waited 20 min. and it never opened. I tried again and again and all that happened was that the number of the incomplete line (the ******) changed and it still won't open. I posted this at jk2 review a week ago, but no one could answer.

Kengo Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 The colour scheme on the forums here seems to be changing daily, but I kind of like the temporary upheaval! OK, well you got the BAK file, and then the snapshot files in maps/snapshots. Also, making sure you have a backup, you can open the map file with a text editor (say notepad) and look at all the lines, trying to find the problem. Could be something to do with the Worldspawn maybe? I accidentally deleted mine once and had to re-insert it with notepad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master_thomas Posted August 13, 2003 Author Share Posted August 13, 2003 Interesting. When I checked the .map, it didn't go up to the number of the line that was incomplete. Now, that I changed the bak to a .map, and checked it with wordpad: "// brush 62 { ( 1911 257 -2321 ) ( 1923 257 -2321 ) ( 1911 1023 -2321 ) system/caulk 0 0 0 0.250000 0.250000 0 4 0 ( 1923 257 -281 ) ( 1923 1023 -281 ) ( 1923 257 -2321 ) bespin/wall 0 0 0 0.250000 0.250000 0 0 0 ( 1905 703 -3616 ) ( 1917 703 -1576 ) ( 1905 703 -1576 ) system/caulk 0 0 0 0.250000 0.250000 0 4 0 ( 1905 577 -3616 ) ( 1917 577 -1576 ) ( 1917 577 -3616 ) system/caulk 0 0 0 0.250000 0.250000 0 4 0 ( 1911 257 -2321 ) ( 1911 1023 -2321 ) ( 1911 1023 -281 ) system/caulk 0 0 0 0.250000 0.250000 0 4 0 ( 1905" (it still won't load) And it ends there. I'm guesing that I need to somehow finish the last line and adding end-brackets below, but how do I finish it? I'll try a copy and paste first. EDIT: Okay; I fixed the line. It's starting up. Now for the moment of.... "GTK radiant has generated errors and will be closed by windows. You will have to restart the program." Okay, that might not happen again. One more try. :) It worked!!! Thank you so much Kengo. Why do I always forget about the .bak file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
