If there is not a brush covered in the system/ORIGIN shader as PART of the func_rotate, it will rotate about the MAP ZERO, ie, the point where you see a little XYZ drawn in the 2D view: (0, 0, 0). Make a brush covered in system/origin, place it at th...  [Read More]

You've made a couple early-beginner mistakes that, if rectified, could turn this into a quality map. 1) Large, boxy architecture. Make smaller rooms in general han those in, say, the first shot, with the exception of large hangars/cargo bays. And wh...  [Read More]

OK...yeah, you might want a layer of fog hugging the ground. Can you explain why it didn't work before? A single brush covered in a fog shader should do the trick. (You can always try a different fog shader if the one you're using borks.)...  [Read More]

Please don't mind mslaf, he has a tendency to make things WAY more complicated than they need to be. A .pk3 is NOT for overriding game files, it's merely a way of compressing game content, specific to the Q3A engine. It's an efficient way of packagi...  [Read More]
