Sounds like a custom shader file from a map you may have downloaded. And are you trying to load a map in the game or the shader file itself in the editor?...  [Read More]

I've found that you have to make a pk3 w/ your map and custom textures in it if you are testing it in multiplayer. You don't have to make a pk3 if you are testing in single player....  [Read More]

If I remember correctly, in JO a trigger_hurt would give health if negative in sp mode, but in mp it would play the falling death thingy. But I haven't tried this for JA so I don't know what it will do for sure....  [Read More]

Well, I can't tell you much about scripting except you should download the SDK they just released. It has BehavEd in it which you can use to make scripts. As for mapping, I recommend going here to get started: http://richdiesal.jedioutcastmaps.com/...  [Read More]
