Easiest compilation is from the bsp menu within radiant, if you have the paths set right and jex's project file installed. Any of the full options will do fine for starting mappers.

Edit: strange, can't find it.

[remco138]

omg fuck you... i sayd q3map2toolz you idiot all my topics your make a first post and tell me crap.

when i go to the bsp otion at the toolbar of
gtk radiant 1.2

then its empty, there comes an dropdownlist with nothing in it...

pls help Mme

How hard is it to read that line. I bother to give you the simplest way to compile the map, i even put on my precognition and forsee the problem you will have and you refuse to even read my post right. Maybe I should write an essay on mapping for new people or something

Shut the fuck up. Why remco may be an unpolite moron, you did supply the wrong answer to his rather simple question, so do not blame his nationality, since that only works when you are from Poland.

OMG LMAO

And the right answer is? Really lava, jex's project file also adds bsp compile options to the bsp menu of radiant. This in combination with entering the right path for q3map2 which I also mentioned makes this a perfectly valid answer and simple at that.
 
Also q3map2toolz has a plethora of built in compile lines. He might want to check he actually selected one. He might want to check he didn't select the decompile option. His information is so incomplete I give the simplest answer I can.

Here have my project file, with the bsp options at the bottom, which are exactly the same as jex's because it is jex's.

pls!!

1. After you have installed the Q3Map2 Toolz, run the "Configuration Tool".

2. Fill the spaces as seen in the image:


3. Click "Add" and then "Q3Map2Toolz".

4. In the window that open select a map name at the left and choose any build options that have both BSP, VIS and Light swifts.

5. Click build and be happy if you are lucky.

A simpler program that can do the same is the Q3Map2Build that you can download here: http://www.bobdev.com/q3map2build.php
However, I recommend you using the Gtk build menu or create yourself a .BAT script to automate the process. Those automated programs are a little outdated.

...omfg

i start q3map2toolz and blalbabla i already have tremulous in hat list...
but when i select.bsp and my map and clock on build it autostarts tremulous.
 i dont want it to start tremulous but convert my .mp to .bsp!!!!!!!

[remco138]

BUMP

/EDIT... and even if i use that project file script and (yes i have setten the parhs good) i get an error when i try to compile, MAP LEAKED

[Warrior]

i get an error when i try to compile, MAP LEAKED

If you had compiled using Gtk it would alert you about the leak and won't let you compile the map until the leak has been fixed.

Also, try to write in better English next time. If you have Microsoft Word, try to use it to fix your grammar.

[remco138]

omfg awnser? i doh noht cer ef my gremar socks

why does it says map leak what dfo i do00oo oomhfg           (imdutchwhatdoesmapleakmean??)

when it sayd map leaked there comes an big red line that goes trough all the overmind, baricade,acidtube,reactor,and telenode.... just everyting i build, when i delete those it still says map leaked but there no big red line enymore

[Survivor]

Leaks are openings of the map towards the void. The area outside the brushes which goes on for let's say infinity. The red line comes from the first entity it compiles towards the leak in the wall. Usually these are either detail brushes as hull which is unlikely in your case or a hullwall/floor/ceiling which doesn't touch another brush on one/more side(s) resulting in an opening to the void. Usually if you follow the line and find the point where the line enters the outside area (void) you will have found the location of the leak. Fix it by closing the hole.

[remco138]

ty man!!  :eek:
now try to fix it lolz
   

when i open it (yes /sv pure 0) and do /devmap <mapname> then it goes loading and then it gives an error

[Thorn]

Entity leak? The entity is IN the brush?

Edit; What is the error?

[remco138]

omg i sayd it was cleared but when i try to open it in trem it says when the first loading bar  = at 60% re wordlmap:could not find <themapname>



KK HERE

[Thorn]

Run the compiler as a bat file through a command prompt, once its finished look up for any compile errors OR keep your eyes open for them when you are compiling.

[remco138]

im using not q3build2toolz anymore but survivor his project file (with my paths) so i can compile in GTK radiant

omg i sayd it was cleared but when i try to open it in trem it says when the first loading bar  = at 60% re wordlmap:could not find <themapname>

KK HERE

Did you do
/sv_pure 0
/devmap mapname
?

[remco138]

ok ty i missspelled  that set svc pure 0 ty now it loads fully buttttt


it says there are no spawns, so one question bout the mapping part,
how can i set someting precise at an brush (like the floor) so the spawn doesnt go trough the floor.

[Warrior]

how can i set someting precise at an brush (like the floor) so the spawn doesnt go trough the floor.

Put it some units above the floor (about 8 or 16 units is ok, but you can use more space between the floor and the egg if you want).

[remco138]

ok ok BUT i gives an error when i want to test it pls awnser that,
it says there are no spawns but there ARE

(how can imove someting a bit instead of  much cuz if i an hall with tunnels  and i paste an other wall against it it wil be ugly cuz it isnt precise)

pls awnser the first question first

[Warrior]

how can imove someting a bit instead of  much

Just set a new grid size using the "Grid" toolbar menu.
And please stop using this forum to ask such basic questions. If you can't do anything alone, forget the idea of mapping. Or try to learn by yourself. Don't forget you have Google to make searches. And you have infinite Tutorials and Manuals about mapping.
Also, please stop using that 2-3 year children language.
You will have no more answers from me for such questions.

Don't be so hard, maybe his english isn't very good or something and he said he used trem wiki, so he prob used it but couldn't find his answer
Ow well, who am i to join this conflict.

[TRaK]

Make sure you have an egg, a telenode, info_player_intermission, info_human_intermission, and info_alien_intermission.

And make sure none of these are touching brushes or in the void. To be safe, place them raletively high above the floor.

[Plague Bringer]

you only need an info_playerintermission, but the rest of your points are right ;P
