Q3 MOD & Foghulls, dont work, (not yer typical foghull p

(Axedup) #1

:bash:

Hello, Ive been making the basic map inside q3 and the foghull works beautifully :slight_smile:

Its come to the point for creating the map to work for the specific mod and when I load it up the entire map is black

If u run r_showtris 1 u can see all the brushwork but everything is pure darkness.

I retested it in q3 and all ok.

I deleted the fog brush, and pasted the foghull with a normal sky texture and it worked.

I Thought foghulling was a q3 specific trick which should work on all mods that are q3 based.

Plz help, coz this is a major kick in the plums :moo: :banghead:

Thx in advance…

Try that for your skybox:

textures/axedup/foghull_grey
{
qer_editorimage textures/axedup/fog_grey.tga
q3map_surfacelight 25
q3map_sun 1 1 1 100 90 60
surfaceparm noimpact
surfaceparm nolightmap
skyParms textures/env/foghull_grey/foghull_grey 0 -
}

You can play with all the values and use q3map_sun OR q3map_surfacelight or both as showed above.
