Hi everyone, i know its been awhile since ive been on here, school became a very important matter and i had to stop mapping for awhile. Well i got my map done and all i need is 2 things answered. What i need to know is, how do u make it where people can plant Land mines in ur map and also, what program is good for making a command map?
To tell the truth, i dont even know where to begin with command maps, could someone help show me or give a good tut?
OK, what exactly are surfaceparms, ive never heard of those
textures/mp_siwa/lmterrain_0
{
q3map_baseshader textures/mp_siwa/lmterrain_base
surfaceparm landmine
surfaceparm gravelsteps
{
map textures/desert_sd/sand_wave_desert.tga
rgbgen identity
}
{
map $lightmap
blendFunc GL_DST_COLOR GL_ZERO
}
{
map textures/detail_sd/sanddetail.tga
blendFunc GL_DST_COLOR GL_SRC_COLOR
detail
tcMod scale 6 6
}
}
Do not add this to shaders already created by other people. you will need to create your own, but I am sure you know that part. Shader Manual.
ok, trojan and one of his friends help me pull my pk3 together, but the map doesnt want to appear on my list when i start up a server. I was wondering if i coudl put my pk3 on here and let some of you experts look at it, but how would i put it on here?
you could also have too many pk3’s in your etmain. Are you testing in a clean environment?
also make sure theres a .arena file in your pk3 in the right place and that the part map " "
contains the correct name of your bsp in between the " and "
the part longname " mapnamehere " will be what appears in your list.
also it would be far more better if you made your own pk3s then you would know exactly what went in, try downloading pakscape from here
its nice usefull tool for making your pk3s should be pretty easy to figure out providing you know what folders go in and all that, if not iam sure theres a tutorial flying around, cant find it atm, anyway hope that helps.
