Well, I'll write in the whole "detect missing textures/shaders" deal, that shouldn't be too difficult. As for including any textures/shaders which are property of id Software, well, I'm working on that.

Avatar of Woe, give me like a day, and then I'd love to work with you and your situation.

[Hybridesque (old)]

Yup, that was one of my fears of this thing... as it appears it can handle maps that aren't compiled with Q3Map2 as far as we are aware.

I've spoken to Illogical on this subject and he's going to monitor this very carefully.

Besides, a change in the ents for ET-Urban Terror would stop the output maps from working properly in ET-Urban Terror, at worst... anybody that tries to pull a stunt like that would only be able to use it in FFA.

I can't honestly expect SID to modify the entities and .def file in such a way anyway... they'll just modify things a little.

That's great work, illo. And hell yeah, we really need a func to include custom textures in the port process. I am currently beginning a map with many own textures and I am wondering how difficult the port will be....

[6th|illogical]

Some general rules if you want the port from Q3 to ET to be as painless as possible...

1) Make sure all of your textures have dimensions that are powers of 2. ET is anal retensive when it comes to this.
2) Steer clear of any base Q3 textures, even stock Urban Terror textures. If you really must use them, copy them to your own texture directory. Same goes with shaders, models, skyboxes, etc...

Lighting and map scale won't be a problem, so you can relax there. I will stress the idea that if you can recompile your map for ET, do that. While the converter is taking shape nicely, it is no substitute for a clean compile.

[6th|illogical]

Test, test. Is this thing on?

The map and texture converter is done (for now ). I've put in some additional features to encourage good texture and shader naming, as well as to ensure your PK3 has everything needed by your map. And the list of features is...

- BSP version patching
- BSP texture, shader, model, and sound verification
- Shader verification (this is not syntax checking, but making sure all required textures exist)
- Texture resizing when needed (includes levelshots and model textures)

gj with QA illogical.

This program may bring us ET:UT faster, which is of course a Good Thing.

[6th|illogical]

I don't know about it bringing us ET:UT any faster broomhead (the character in your avatar ). For me this was simply a lesson in programming, at least, that's how it started. If SID would like to use the converter, that's fine with me. But, I'm sure they realize what a fresh build for that engine can do over a converter. If you can recompile it, do it. Converter should be last resort (or first stop, depending on the existance of a .map).

[Hybridesque (old)]

this 'product' should be the last resort... always.
