UNSC Labs

[Paradox]

This is my serious in development map, unlike fusion, which was cool, but too big of a load and not finished. This one i actually present a screenshot!

This map will be much easier.
I will have a nonlinear, asymmetrical layout, as it is supposed to be a HUMAN feeling map. I hope to include a collider with particle scripts, as well as quite a few game models. The idea of the map is that it is a human facility for studying the aliens.

• Added another screenshot to show new lighting and new textures

AWFUL LIGHTING!!! LAWL

[Paradox]

Can you understand alpha .00001?

[TinMan]

It wasn't labeled, and you shouldn't go more than 2 decimals in.

[Paradox]

Bite my shiny metal battlesuit ass lol

[Steely Ann]

Just so I can beat everybody to it: "Nice rack, Paradox!"

After all the hype surrounding Fusion, I must say that this pic is a bit of an anticlimax   .

That being said, good luck and hope this turns out well.

[Kaleo]

"UNSC"...

Aren't you just ripping off Halo?

[Steely Ann]

Geez, Kaleo.

Just...wow.

[Kaleo]

lol batlesuit shuld b jus like mastr chief LoL omg wtf bbq

Then the Aliens are like the c...


Nah... Just dosen't work...

[Shadowgandor]

Hmm, looks like it's going to be a map with a lot of details, like the weapon rack and the aliens in cages. Good luck with it and don't listen to what the others say, just go for it

[Paradox]

The aliens in cages will only work if i can get the models to render with a texture.
How do i set it to work? The model loads, but no texture.

I am also trying to make the textures stand alone from karith, fine for the regular textures, but i cant get shaders to work properly. Here is what i have for trimlight in my UNSC_Labs.shader :

Code Select Expand

// - by Evillair - edited by Godmil
textures/UNSC_Labs/e8tmtllight2_nonsolid
{
qer_editorimage textures/UNSC_Labs/e8tmtllight2.tga
q3map_lightimage textures/UNSC_Labs/e8tmtllight2.blend.tga
surfaceparm nomarks
surfaceparm nonsolid
q3map_surfacelight 950
{
map textures/UNSC_Labs/e8tmtllight2.tga
}
{
map $lightmap
blendfunc filter
tcGen lightmap
}
{
map textures/UNSC_Labs/e8tmtllight2.blend.tga
blendfunc add
}
}
Exact copy of the karith shaders, except with line changed to UNSC_Labs instead of karith. I also moved e8tmtllight2.jpg and e8tmtllight2.blend.jpg, because they were the only 2 textures. There was no e8tmtllight2.tga
Now in the map, i get almost no light from these. I have put the shader file in /scripts/

[Taiyo.uk]

Did you put your mapname in your shaderlist.txt?

For my custom shaders I needed to add the name of my map to tremulous/scripts/shaderlist.txt before they would appear as shaders in radiant.

[Paradox]

Where, at the top?
Does the file have to be named shaderlist.txt? Mine is called UNSC_Labs.shader, like kariths
Oh nvrmind, i got it.
Thanks
I still cant get the e8tmtllight2 texture to render, but my other textures appear. Problem is, i have to align it to make it have luminosity.

[Odin]

you need to finish the fight first

[Lava Croft]

Fucking fantastic crappy screenshot coming from a man that promised us Fusion...

[Odin]

im making a new map called fission...

[mooseberry]

:eek:

[Paradox]

Can anyone actually help me with the problem? If i cant, ill have to change some dependencies.

[Dracone]

Lol I made a map...here teh screenshot...c ppl say gud so it must be...clik it 2 c up closer lol.

[Plague Bringer]

Nice FPS.

[Steely Ann]

Dracone

Blue monkey hell, how am I supposed to run that?  Optimize it sometime, jackass!

[Plague Bringer]

2023fps, that's optomised. Where'd you get those chat bubbles Dracone? That's pretty neat. Oh, and how the FUCK do you play with those graphic settings?

[Dracone]

Yeah I know. Jealous of my fps like everyone else...*tsk* It goes too high sometimes and I have to kick my computer because it's annoying seeing numbers across the top of my screen.

And those graphic settings...pfft, it's a secret. But I know you're jealous.......ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh yes you are.

Still, it's a good map.

[Paradox]

Could i actually get some real help?

[.f0rqu3]

The aliens in cages will only work if i can get the models to render with a texture.

problem is there is no texture defined in the md3, as player model it uses the .skin file that defines what part uses which texture

I know only one solution: add|modify the shader paths in the md3
a) hexeditor
b) blender import -> export
c) NPherno's MD3 Compiler

I suggest c

[Paradox]

Ok, i got that, and i follow what it says in the readme.
I can load the goon model fine, but i specify level3 in the shader field, and get no change?
Am i supposed to use the level3.tga or the nonseg_default.skin
