how do you to convert q3 maps in ef maps ?

It's for my personal use

thanks to answer

A pk3 file is just a zip archive. You can assemble it using 7-zip or any other zip utility. Are you asking about just composing the archive, or actually building the files that go into it?

I have always used my Winzip

Hey v1|3, give 7-Zip a try. Just as good, but no cracks, cash or trial notices to contend with.

Also opens .rar with no extra software needed. Greatest win.

7-zip

I'mnot-aRat: You need to detail exactly what you are trying to do and what you have tried already. Otherwise, it's hard for anyone to answer your question.

[v1l3]

Hey v1|3, give 7-Zip a try.

I actually do have it, but I've just been using Winzip for so long that it's hard to switch over I guess..I don't have any trial notices either, and I never payed for it. I was in a clan back on 1.16n days and a clan member sent me a crack for it so.. Maybe I'll give the 7-zip a better look over.

it's because I've got a pk3 of a q3 map that I've download (with permission) and I want to convert it into another pk3 files but for ef...

Well, I opened the pk3 files and now I don't know if I have to convert all the archive or just the .bsp file so ...can you help me !!!

[I'mnot-aRat]

well... I want to convert the pk3 file of a q3 map into a ef map.
I've got q3map2 but I don't know if I must compile the pk3 file,all there is inside or just the .bsp file

[I'mnot-aRat]

also I would like to know what to type in the console

thanks to answer

The first post in Salinga's thread covers the general steps. You have to modify the .bsp file to use the correct entities for EF, then re-create the .aas file for bots, and you'll probably have to fiddle with some of the other files as well (as Salinga describes) to deal with texture/shader issues.

If you're not already familiar with Q3 or EF mapping it's going to be a quite a bit of work to get all the details right. I'd say to first try asking Salinga if he would convert it for you.

STOP SPAMMING THE FORUM THREADS WITH THE SAME QUESTION!!!

You've created a thread, then posted in others and I've gone through all the trouble of moving them all back here. If you have a question, post in here instead of spamming other people's threads. If you post the same question on another thread, I will delete it.

Johnny Law already answered your question. If there is any part of that you don't understand, ask someone to elaborate what part you don't understand instead of asking the first question again like a skipping record player.

[I'mnot-aRat]

I didn' t want to spam the other subjects with my question I ' am sorry if it is the case

[I'mnot-aRat]

And if it's possible can you tell me where can I find the first salinga's post ........ cuz I'm a really IDIOT

[obsidian]

I'm not pissed off in the least. There's a certain amount of forum etiquette you need to follow. I'm just trying to help you learn how to post questions on an internet forum.

(BTW, try to keep the rainbow colours and smilies down to a minimum, thanks. )

[I'mnot-aRat]

Hey hey!!! It is still me and my question rotted!!! How we make to convert models q3 there models ef. It is not the punishment(effort) to ask me what I have already begun(undertaken): I not ais nothing begun(undertaken) I land as a moron.

[obsidian]

You can't extract models from the bsp. You will need the original model files.

[Dark Metal]

This obsidian guy sure has a lot of patience...

[obsidian]

Tell me about it... I had to sit through dinner sitting next to you.

[Dark Metal]

At least you knew enough to keep your mouth shut.
