looks promising! eager to see your redux version.

for the sake of comparison, here's a blockout i did some time ago - https://www.dropbox.com/s/a8z23tg7xxqa7 ... olence.pk3

Hi All! Some years back I somehow extracted and reverse engineered a (slightly buggy) QAA asset pack. Did you manage to extract the assets with file and folder structures intact? Extracting with quickbms produced a flat list with generic file names and extensions. Locating the BSPs wasn't hard, but...

Any mods? So EntityPlus is discontinued? :( Sorry to give a short and sooner answer before. We're recreating Bid For Power, one of the first mods of Q3 era (1999 - 2002). The source code was lost and we're retrieving with programming gamecode. Any contribution to accomplish the main goals is welcom...

I wouldn't hold them to the standards of a competitive map, more to the level of the majority of the official Q3A maps. It's a bit of Quake history for anyone who's curious.

Here's a bit of reference:

Hi All! Some years back I somehow extracted and reverse engineered a (slightly buggy) QAA asset pack. It has been sitting in limbo until recently when I decided to finally polish off the maps and release 'em. I haven't quite reached a final product for these just yet (almost there!), but my lack of ...

"wrong hole dude" :olo:

excellent work as always sst

Looking good! The ceiling above old adren/ladder should be lower. You should scrutinize ceiling height based on whether or not rocket splash can damage you while standing under it - if it can in the original it should in a remake. The line of sight is also out a bit - the doorway should be lower to ...

Loved the original myself, played a big part in my mispent childhood! Very good work, after a quick play through it feels like I remember it. Visually does well to pay homage to the original, modernise it a bit and keep with ztn's visual design goals for the map. Nothing against foralarx but his did...

If all it needs is some strings changing for Q3Rally, maybe you can get away with some hex edit hackery of the executable?

Almost everything is stretched in ioquake3.

I wanted to move over to netradiant-custom... I really did. It has impressive productivity features and fixes loads of bugs. I just can't get a handle of the controls, and after asking Garux for a Gtk-style prefab he declined (https://github.com/Garux/netradiant-custom/issues/61). So the majority of...

Easy solutions from the top of my head: 1. Send vieworg information from client via server command, probably not network efficient 2. Add thirdperson cvars to clientinfo (CVAR_USERINFO flag), mirror CG_OffsetThirdPersonView on server side using said userinfo to predict where vieworg is. What are you...

press button, and then go to spec.

But it kills you instantly before you can press it (even with god mode), and can't be activated by shooting it...

Loving the new Quad room! The changes overall are nice and makes the map more interesting - I can't get enough of maps that encourage you to search for hidden details/secrets!

I can't press the button for the last secret - how do you press buttons as a spectator? :olo:

It is a matter of pros and cons indeed, but I think Gtk still comes on top despite the many problems with it. For instance, since switching to a new PC last year I can't select multiple brush faces. Well I can by holding and hovering, but when I try to click to select another face, the other face(s)...

Indeed, it seems a bit rough so far.

In other news NetRadiant-custom has had a major update: https://github.com/Garux/netradiant-custom

Something that might be of interest to a few folks here:

Fantastic work as per usual!

Also: the golden buttplug :olo:

Outstanding work again fKd, especially bones. It'e great to still see maps developed. A few minor nitpicks for bones: - the fence shader seems to have a very high sort and will draw on top of simple items and the mega health bubble - there's z-fighting on the ladder to RA - the nook to drop down to ...

I'm a huge supporter of pushing the limits of what can be done graphically, but it's the CPM philosophy which becomes confused when there's aesthetics at the price of performance - that was the concern I had. I'm sure there'll be more optimization before final release anyhow. Weirdly, it is indeed a...

The box map assumption was based on being able to move across the sky box, right across the map. Along with the lack of culling and short of actually decompiling the map, it seemed safe to assume the level was surrounded by a box to avoid leaks. I can imagine it's not an easy layout to optimize but ...

The maps look great. However they are all (with the exception of cpm3b) very dark in places - even Tornado is far darker than in QL for some reason. Most of the maps' vis culling is almost non-existant (drawing >90% of the map at any time) and cpm30 appears to be a box map with a lack of clipping? A...

A sneak peak of what's to come (excuse the horrible, laggy video recording/compression):
