Are there any tutorial Maps out there?

(ssj3alan) #1

I was wondering If there are any tutorial maps out that have some of the new keys included in q3map2 ie bumpmapping, fur, ink, lighting. Thanks

I’m currently working on one. I still don’t have an idea of how long it’s gonna take me to finish it, but be assured I’ll be posting here once it’s ready…

quite good, especially if you’re mapping for quake3 i guess. (I’m working with sof2)

Good Day All

Franco’s link above is great info for any Q3 based game.

I got a small bumpmapping tut here:

Just point at main and unzip.

Is there a sample map for Quake 3 with bumpmapping that I can download?

I want to convert all my textures and have normal maps, etc for them all, but I don’t know if it’s worth it yet. Any samples online?

Also, is it “Live” like, when you shoot a rocket, do the dynamic lights affect the bumpmaps?

umm, this is how I understand it…

The bumpmapping is simply a very high quality lightmap, so your
moving dlights will illuminate your surfaces, but the orientation of
the bump mapping will not change, as it is fixed in the lightmap at
compile time.

Then I guess the best/only usage for me would be if I ever use tiles, bricks, stones, or rocky terrain.
