Presently it is becoming very clear that I have to use the GTKradiant
Region command (here for
v1.4) to let me more quickly change/test/fix the lighting, the full map compiles simply take far too long (light 800+s).
It seems you can select a area via brush in top/down (XY) view, then via
Region menu, Set Tall Brush, everything covered by the brush is left *in* the map, turning the current file into a
.reg file. You should then be able to compile only this region via
Bsp menu entry (e.g. one of the final settings). I also noted you should turn on
BSP Monitoring in the Prefs (
Enable BSP process monitoring, Stop compilation on leak, Run engine after compile all turned on).
Alas the compile using (Q3Map (ydnar) - v2.5.11 - I have 2.5.16 installed though), complains about
Code: Select all
************ ERROR ************
LoadPortals: couldn't read D:/Games/Quake3/baseq3/maps/aedm7160.prt
Thanks.
Hi, I had the same problem about regions compiling recently, and I read the official GTKRadiant manual found nothing, no matter how many times I tried to adjust the map, it always come with the same compiling problem. Have you resovled the problem? Could you please tell me how to do the region compile?

hi there!
Is tehre a possibility to quickly selecting the brushes via frame?
in the gtk 1.4 or 1.5 there was the possibility with SHIFT + LMB to make a selectionsframe, like in command and conquer and select every brush or entity in the 2d or 3d viewport.
greetings: Phobos

Just create a brush that covers the stuff you want to select and click "select inside" in the main toolbar. (left button next to CSG Substract)
Hope this helps

That's how I replicated the bases in GUSQ3CTF3. I am planning to the next CTF map to be Asymmetry however...
