I like the grenade launcher in SP and the double-barrelled shotgun with quad damage in DM.

Hmm. Well I guess I will do the project and then before release I'll ask both parties if it's ok. Even if I can't release the vmfs or bsps I could still release the script under GPL. It's just for the challenge mostly anyway.

Todd Hollenshead already shut one Quake/2/3-to-Half-Life 2 mod Well whoever was doing the mod must have been refusing to release either the vmfs or whatever program they were using to do the conversion. As long as everything I use to do the conversion is released under the GPL, they can't C&D u...

So what are you allowed to do with the released maps? It's a gpl license so I can distribute and modify them. That's all I'm doing isn't it?

Why?

Thanks. That's what I thought.

I was wondering if it was legal to extract textures from quake and use them in other non-quake projects as long as its not for profit.

I think I know the answer but I wanted to check with the experts.

I'm writing a program that will generate a .MAP file. I'd like to group some brushes. I noticed that in Worldcraft 1.6a, the .MAP file does not have any grouping info but the .RMF appears to. Is it possible to have grouping info in a Quake 1.x .MAP file? If not, does anyone know the breakdown of the...

Thanks scar3crow. That is helpful.

I forgot 1 more feature:

Supports Half-life like outdoor lighting.
