I just made a test map with a regular func train (no model) and it worked fine. So yes, you can put moving objects in the sky portal. It will work with models as well because models targetted towards an entity get baked into the BSP so they'll work...  [Read More]

The leaves on trees are several flat images with transparency, when you look through the gaps between trees you're actually looking through an invisible part of that leaf image. The result of this is everything behind it has to be drawn through a tra...  [Read More]

OR for testing purposes just type sv_pure 0 in JA before loading your map and it will check the folders in base. Also (again I say this...) they must be standard encoded (NOT progressive) and the dimensions of the images must be powers of 2, a 256x2...  [Read More]

You'll be needing an fx_runner if it's a static model. If it's a ship you're modelling then that's a whole different ball game....but still uses efx files :p...  [Read More]

Bots in JA = totally and utterly crap. Why? Before JO appeared, EF and prior Q3 based games used aas files which were created by a second compiler, these aas files contained information about the map and how bots can get from A-B in every single way...  [Read More]

You can use a single script and specify the ref_tag it has to go to on the button on a key of "parm1" then in Icarus you can get the value by using get("SET_PARM1", string) or vice versa. Look at the generic elevator script that...  [Read More]

If you know anything about Icarus, it's a pretty simple task, you simply move a func_static to various ref_tags, each ref_tag determines a stopping position and you call the func_static to that ref_tag....  [Read More]

Yes, higher samples values will perform more smoothing but will increasing compile times exponentially. If you want to use a high samples and try and cut down compile times, func_group brushes and set _lightmapscale keys on them, use 4 or 8 when you...  [Read More]

Gridsize won't affect lightmap quality, the gridsize affects dynamic entity lighting (such as players moving around). A larger grid means there are less points with light data stored so your character won't be lighted properly according to his positi...  [Read More]
