OK i've uploaded some very early screenshots of my newest remake of q2dm3 the frag pipe. the layout is pretty much finished and i've started to texture the lvl out im still testing various things on this map nothing really certain on what the outcome will be.. Anyway here's some screenshots: http://medlem.spray.se/reboots/quake3/maps/req2dm3.htmPlease note that there is no lightmap that's why it's overbright. |

It looks pretty awsome from the screenshots, though what piece of your work doesn't?  |

It was never really one of my favorite maps in Q2, but still good to see it in the works! Is that a bouncepad up to the rocket launcher I see? We have working ladder code in Gen. If this is a "made for Gen" map I'd strongly recommend taking advantage of that for old-school maps. If it's a "general release for Q3" map then I suppose the pad is a necessity. If you would prefer to create ladders then speak up and we'll see about getting the info over to you on how to get them workable.

Boot: Awesome. We'll see about getting that to you. I think there's a special shader that needs to be applied, or a brush, or something. I know that Kirien's gen-q2dm7 map uses it, and it's worked on every converted q2 map I've used for testing so far. I think Mastaba's converter puts it on automatically though.
Edit: Just found it. Here it is:textures/common/ladderclip
{
qer_trans 0.40
qer_editorimage textures/common/bluegoal.tga
surfaceparm nolightmap
surfaceparm nomarks
surfaceparm nodraw
surfaceparm nonsolid
surfaceparm playerclip
surfaceparm noimpact
surfaceparm ladder
}

Just as a head's up, fragpipe really needs an industrial texture theme, not a 'tech' theme.
I know it's just in beta, but I'd be looking for dark, oily, metal-and-rust type textures.
But who am I kidding? You always do a good job man.

/me agrees too ;]
the frag pipe was slimy, gritty and generally a cross between a factory and an oven.

That main room looks HUGE! Very sweet.  Ok I am mainly posting just to let you all know I am not dead... I figure most of the pepole who will remember me being on these boards will probably be reading this topic at one time or other so I just thought I would say this here instead of taking up bandwidth with my own "I am coming back" topic. I am still working on that level that I posted pics for a few months back... I have just been busy as hell, I have a full time job pouring basment walls, and a part time job at a party store, I also have been having more computer troubles then any one man needs to indure. - So with that I guess I will be back when I get this level goin, hopfully within the next couple of weeks. Thanks to ReBoOt for not getting to pissed that I used his topic for this.... Your not pissed right?  |

I have seen the screenshots posted for req2dm3. In order to help retexture it, may I have a test version of this map (req2dm3) to help create textures for it? Some of the Q3A textures serve it well, but others could be improved.
I promise to post screenshots if given a test version of Q2 maps (in general) I think someone mentioned q2dm5 "The Pits" was being remade as well. The lava and slime in Q3A look better than in Q2, but many other wall textures could be improved to look more classic.

Karen: well those screenshots is quite old the map has changed alot since then Sure as soon as i've completed the basic layout, there are still areas that needs to be changed, and i need to set some basic textures, then i'll give you a alpha of this map. Yes im also remaking q2dm5, the layout is pretty much complete but finding any suitable q3 texture for that map is really hard so im gonna need your help on that one |

The good news is that I've a good percentage of the textures in q2dm5 done - the better news is that I know to concentrate work on some of the textures which still remain undone. For instance, that map uses textures like: e2u3/blume9_2e2u3/blume7_2e2u3/blume6_11 of 4 button animationsI noticed in some Gen maps that the crosshatching floor texture just looks really bad - it's a cheezy low res. I have several suitable replacements. If you see me in IRC with the lowercase name "karen", then I'm probably  sleeping or nearby doing something  - you can type "!karen" to trigger a song to play to get my attention (it's a song I like, so crank itup!) Otherwise, you can email me with the button down there. I'd like to help in any way I can. |
