surfaceparm landmine, still can't plant mines?

Jizaboz: The question is valid, because you can change some of the shader settings without a recompile of the map.

Chruker · 2004-06-18 13:59:15 UTC

Jizaboz: Could you post the output from q3map2 when compiling the map. Perhaps we can spot something.

MadJack: Sorry, I’m unsure of what exactly ivector is.

Chruker: Here’s some output of the compiler (with light turned off to keep it from being too long) and I went ahead and tried to set mines after this too just to make sure. “Cannot plant landmine here”. The only thing kind of odd I see in it is all the instances of shaderlist.txt, due to other .pk3s of downloaded maps. So here’s the output log :

Thanks again for helping me with this so far guys, I know this is probably starting to get annoying to you too :banghead:

Chruker · 2004-06-18 17:27:10 UTC

Hmm.

Nothing noticable in the log.

You could try asking this in the q3map2 support forum.

You could also try removing those downloaded pk3s. So that you only have the original and the GtkRadiant pk3s left.

Other than that I don’t really know what else to try.

MadJack · 2004-06-18 23:51:25 UTC

@ Jizaboz

The .shader file containing this:


textures/mars/terrain_base 
{ 
nopicmips 
q3map_lightmapaxis z 
q3map_lightmapmergable 
q3map_tcGen ivector ( 512 0 0 ) ( 0 512 0 ) 
surfaceparm landmine 
surfaceparm gravelsteps 
}

Change the Q3Map2_tcGen ivector to this


q3map_tcGen ivector ( 256 0 0 ) ( 0 256 0 )

What this will do is to scale down your textures. What it will NOT do is make it landminable. I want you to do that so we can see if the terrain shader is used. Meaning if there’s some problem with file names and such. If the terrain textures are not scaled down then your map is most likely not using the same shader file you’re editing. That will help diagnose the problem.

Note that changing ivector’s value NEEDS a compile to get the results in the map.

If that doesn’t work send me a PM. I’ll answer with my email so you can send me that .map and I’ll give it a spin.

Jizaboz · 2004-06-20 15:28:34 UTC

It’s fixed!

MadJack’s post reminded me of one thing I didn’t try. Removing my .pk3 of the map which I was using for multiplayer test fixed it. I thought that /devmap always ran the version of the map that isn’t in the .pk3, but I was wrong. Thanks guys. This thread became pretty long for such a stupid mistake, but I guess it makes a good referance now for new editors.

MadJack · 2004-06-20 16:24:21 UTC

Nothing overrides the pk3. In fact, the pk3 overrides everything else.

Unless there’s something I’m not aware of
