You should never have to ask about caulking if you map properly to start :p The original and still best method to map is to build the structure totally in caulk covered brushes then texture visible faces ONLY.... [Read More]

BSP versions vary, well their version numbers and contents do anyway. As for using Worldcraft I have no idea, tbh I would be surprised as hell if that were the case. You could always test it out and compile, see how it comes out!... [Read More]

Ok now is that in a new .shader file and if it is, have you added the name of that file to shaderlist.txt ? Shaders will NOT be parsed if they aren't in a file referenced in shaderlist.txt by the compiler. The game doesn't need shaderlist.txt but the... [Read More]

If it's big and simple then you can fix it by simply adding a key of _blocksize and a value of 4096 4096 4096 to the worldspawn. If it's complex and you haven't made any brushes detail - if you don't know what that means then you certainly need to d... [Read More]

It never hurts to delete unseen faces, even if it is low poly, your ship may be spawned into a map where the poly count is already high, any extra faces are gonna affect the game. Of course it takes extra time and the affect may be minimal if it's on... [Read More]

Once you do the Ctrl+K thing you're giving the func_plat a targetname (it's how the model is linked to the func_plat). Whenever you give a door/plat and so on a targetname (which you automatically have done) it expects to be triggered manually - i.e.... [Read More]
