yey glad to see two kick ass mappers willing to help me with my map.

lol dele ive read the site about hinting like 3 times now.. =)

i just wouldnt know where to hit in the map

im gonna try a few more test to get a farther understanding..

now areaportals and skip i so far dont have a clue about those...

and was the smoothness in jumping actually noticeable?? if so than NICE!

areaportals ;

all corners of the areaportal must be in a solid wall, while still being wide enough to fit inside the door.
texture all sides of the brush with skip then select one face(that you will walk through) with areaportal. done.

hints, I could have a whack at hinting the map. hints are confusing

[Delirium]

Hinting seems fine,
I mirrored it here

also i think the theme can stay but next time you need your own >:]


_ALSO_ the only thing that really needs fixing, is the teleports. NOONE likes to be teleported into a wall, you need to have the teleports so you can jump again almost instantly, and further back so you cant block as easily

[Muffie]

there is no hinting done yet afaik, just the normal vis compile.

i just dont want to risk tele frags.  maybe put the teles like in the back center of the jump and have them facing out towards the jump?

muff ill send u the updated map when i get a new version and u can have a look if u want.

so u want the areaportal brush like 1 unit inside the door? do i have to make my own skip shader? cause i dont think its in common... idk i didnt look yet but i dont remember seeing it there. dele i can get the skip shader from the forum link u sent me.. i saw the there.

[uJ|V00d00]

The key to telefrags isnt misc_teleporters.  Have about 4 of them.

The key is to split your teleport brush into many pieces, so if a player falls in two seperate places at the same time the teleporter logic doesnt crash and send them both to the same teleporter pad.

yes, the copy and paste that, and add it to the bottom of your common.shader

if you run round with r_showtris 1 you can see that q3map has done its job, unless he wants to add more details i cant see it being a problem as is
