cel shading & lightmaps

(JonTart) #1

My map has the _celshader key applied to the worldspawn entity so the cel.shader applies to all textures in my map. If I texture a surface with a shader it doesn’t seem to have a lightmap, is this correct behaviour and if so is there a workaround so that shaders will have a lightmap despite the fact that they are cel shaded?

my shader

textures/tart_cel/blue
{
	q3map_nonplaner
	q3map_shadeangle 60
	qer_editorimage textures/tart_cel/blue.tga		
	{
		map $lightmap
		rgbGen identity
	}
	{
		map textures/tart_cel/blue.tga
		blendFunc filter
	}
}

any surface with the above shader has no lightmap
I’ve also tested with some stock Q3 shaders and they have the same behaviour

Ok, I’ve just figured out that no cel shaded surfaces have a lightmap, I read the cel.shader included with q3map2 :slight_smile:

so what I need now is a way to better blend the vertex lighting between two adjacent planes (see the pics below, click for a bigger version)


I’m not sure if what I want is possible, but any help is appreciated :smiley:
