And is mapping same as in Quake 3....brushes....etc...??? Or it is something new...??? I am out of all informations, because I am not in mapping anymore....but Quake 4, sounds good....might get back to it ( mapping again )....

it will be similar to q3 mapping (as d3 mapping is) but not exactly the same.

That would definitely be cool. MP madness through Halloween...

auto-downloading too - betamap feedback without even asking for it!

Texturing and lighting is obviously different.

Yes....a lot to learn than.

I am just interested is main construction made with brushes or you have to model it in some other program...???

Brushes and patches as always, and import models the way we do now. It's still Radiant, just tweaked.

Whatever you do Fjoggis, make sure you finish/release it.

I'm forcing the following goal on you :
Make a map w/ great gameplay and design that gets to be one of the most popular custom maps in Q4 mp.

Post by **Fjoggs** » Mon Oct 10, 2005 7:49 pm

Hehe, I'll try my best. Can't garantue it'll be one of the most popular though :P

fjoggs don't! please god! I hate dm6 !

I plan to make a DM map for Quake4 when it is released. I've had a few ideas floating around for quite sometime. Can't wait

I have a question that maybe someone could answer? (pjw?)

Will the Quake4 editor open Doom3 .maps? Doom3 doesn't like Quake3 .maps, but that is somewhat understandable. I would assume Q4 would open D3 maps, but then again it may not if Raven added some new hotness to the engine, thus possibly changing the .map up a little.

Can't wait to see what people produce for Quake4. Another exciting time for the mod community is at hand I believe.

I hope so.

Oh yeah, and Fjoggs. I have seen like 100 awesome, even revolutionary screenshots from you and no maps. WTF. I am fucking hating this. Everything else is green was awesome, but was that seriousley your last map? Come one man!

Sorry man, I'm being very careful not to step on anyone's toes--I like this gig.

The easiest way to cover myself is to just shut up about pretty much anything and everything until the game is actually on shelves, and then I'll be happy to answer any questions to the best of my ability.

Heh, no worries. I was merely joking around, but, if no one else does it, i'll at least make an alpha and see how it plays.

Cheers for that. And yeah, I'm horrible when it comes to finishing maps. I want to say that Fjo3tourney1 is finished, but the hinting is bollocks, so I'm still working on that.
I hope to finish a CTF map I'm working on too though.

I'm planning to play a lot first, then look at adding my own assets later.

Post by **StormShadow** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 10:45 pm

dm6 is already a map in q4. There are a few other q3 remakes that will ship with q4, including q3tourney6 and dm17.
