Hipshot,
that was the reason for my disappointment. After all this time, and I am way way waaay behind the times... this should have been fixed long ago. Oh well... I did note though that the preview images do exist for Extras maps in their .pk3 folder.

@AEon: All Workshop items (like maps) are stored in the workshop folder: ...\SteamApps\workshop\content\*numbers*\*more-numbers* There are also no levelshots for the Extra Arenas. So look out for the QL logo in the Current Areans menu. Or try to start the map via console: \map arenagate ffa Thanks....

>> Can it be that not every map was converted from Q3A to QL? Q3DM1 comes to mind... You need this mappack: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f ... ext=arenas Hmmm... I subscribed to that mappack (that really should mention the included maps by name), and Steam seems to have downloaded somethin...

Some other things I am wondering about... Can it be that not every map was converted from Q3A to QL? Q3DM1 comes to mind... I have noted that there are now white cross markers in the maps that seem to denote TP destinations . Are these added by the game dynamically, or has it become a tradition for ...

sst13,
ah... great visuals on the global ammo... so one would really want to add those global ammo boxes to old maps, less of them obviously. OK... good to know.

Hipshot, I think the only time I actually used the Botroam "weight" key was in SolarAE ... and that would be another map I would want to port to QL as well... since it is one of the few maps where I really loved your original layout. Not using "weight" should be possible... back ...

cityy, Well... I actually was here... I turned into one of the "lurkers" :)... thanks for the feedback... that cleared up a lot. The only thing I found a bit disappointing with QL was, that *really" creative maps, with alien or very modern architecture are not in there. It seems like ...

I recently started playing through the many new maps for Quake Live, and especially liked playing them in Instagib mode. This made me think of updating several of my old maps, to make them run under Quake Live... I was thinking of new compiles, not just bsp file hacks of the version number, what Hip...

Interesting retro-style. I especially like the PG screenshot... looks really elegant.

Been seeing a few reviews on the GTX 1080, and thinking "damn it"... but then it turns out that card is not that significantly better than my GTX 980 Ti... so all is still good... for now.

IIRC, the grid size is set by the keys 1 to 0, and 4 was the default 8u grid (been a while).

You can go below 1u grid size, though I would not recommend it.

My set was fun to make, but the textures where strange as well. They where intended to be used as templates only... to then later retexture the map... but somehow, at least when I used them, the latter retexture never happened.

Har... the link still seems to work to the AEcell template texture set. Nice...

I think what is happening is this: the jump down for the bots is too dangerous, i.e. they would lose significant (in the AI perception that is) amounts of health if they jumped down. The only way to fix this, IIRC, is to use brushes covered with "common\cushion" on them. And place them on ...

Ah... I am not hip enough to know such things .

What does "OP" mean though?

The hardware has thankfully been working really well. And I have become used to Win10 too, sorta... though I am pretty sure I am not nearly using many of the OS' new features...

Because "my croud" is here... though it could now be moved. Even as mod I still don't know how to do it... never did.

As I recall it fixed things... so it would have had to be part of Vanilla Quake 3... though that never happened... so yeah... that went bad.

Awesome demo shots to explain the effect of a lightmap... neat.

For those still thinking about upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 10, as I did a few days ago, the following tips might make it less painful, of sorts. Want your preferred Win7 Gadgets back in Win10? I have been using System Montitor II (CPU usage, temperature, memory usage, CPU clock), Network Met...

Started build on March 14th with the hardware I had, to then complete the build on Wednesday 16th. The latter, integrating all hardware and cabling took just four hours (plus the hours on Monday). Windows 10 install was pretty quick, and it took me another few days (until the 18th) to get "all&...

Are "washers" something like "spacers" (preferably made of something non-conductive)? If so I read about, the screws on the far side of the mainboard dragging into the pathing there, if one is not careful.

Shadowdane , liked your suggestions, thanks, updated my build accordingly.

Hipshot , my experience with that site was more or less 5 or so EU either way. 25% would be really really exceptional. Shadowdane , thanks for the suggestions. Checking...
