what would you do then? Would you have to setup an areaportal stop the engine drawing behind it? I don't really need to use mirrors, but it would be handy for future reference.....  [Read More]

If push comes to shove, copy all your geometry, flip it on the z-axis and join it onto the existing geometry. You can then use common/env_glass to split this room in two and make the floor shiny. You won't be able to see npcs or other players in this...  [Read More]

for the fogs, extract the file: fogs.shader from one of the PK3 files and open it up in notepad, and you'll see a list of all the fogs in the game. For the portal skies, have a look on www.map-review.com and you'll find a tutorial under the "tu...  [Read More]

I'm not planning on using it in multiplayer so it doesn't matter too much about lag. I've only just got into scripting so I wouldn't feel too confident about setting up a load of moving traffic. I'll have a look for some tutorials on it though. My...  [Read More]

Portal skies are awesome, normal skyboxes aren't! that's the main difference. What a portal sky basically is is a a box made of 6 brushes covered on the inside with the sky texture and on the outside with caulk. This box will be outside the normal c...  [Read More]

On the func_train itself or the path_corners? I'll have to have a fiddle with it - the speed at which my Star Destroyer moves over head would create hell of a lot of air displacement that would flatten my city:) Also, what method would you recomme...  [Read More]

Yeah, I tried it last night with a wedge shaped brush (representing my star destroyer). Portal skies are possibly the greatest creation for the quake3 engine. I've made a couple of city based maps and have had to model all the buildings in the city t...  [Read More]

Does anyone know if entities such as func_trains work in Portal Sky boxes? One of my greatest desires for JK editing is to have animated skyboxes and the thought of a Star Destroyer cruising overhead is something I think would be EXTREMELY cool. Ha...  [Read More]

You could just use the "cinematic" flag in the entity properties window. There shouldn't be much difference between using the normal ghould model and an exact md3 replica of it, especially as there would be no AI loaded for it. Apart from...  [Read More]

I get a very similar problem with the narshada/plant.md3 - the pot or base of the plant shows up, but the actual foliage does not, even though it casts shadows! I think i'm using q3map2.11 - could this be a bug as a lot of other models seem to be wo...  [Read More]

I'm pretty sure the cvar is sv_gravity. Type it in the console - the lower the number specified, the lower the gravity. You could probably set this in the .cfg per map and wouldn't need coding or compiling....  [Read More]

Gravity. Seriously - there's a gravity cvar that is set by default to 800, so if you change it, you can change the trajectory of it. This would affect other weapons as well and projectiles such as the grenades etc. My 1st post in the coding forum -...  [Read More]
