This is line 96 : "if (#HL_MAP) {"
It makes no sense, and there are a few more line that say that

[r00k]

drop the # and only use HL_MAP
This is most likely a defined constant, #DEFINE HL_MAP 1 or HL_MAP in the preprocessor,

if (HL_MAP)
{
blah blah....

preqcc and thus fteqcc also support a # infront of precompiler var names to be an explicit expansion. fteqcc also accepts without the # too, for sanity's sake. :)
Its your choice whether you use a # or not.

Find the #define for HL_MAP and make sure its correctly insertable within those brackets - make sure it has no trailing semi-colon.

Seems unlikely that I'd upload a source code that doesn't compile --- I probably included the fteqccgui.exe in the source folder knowing my habits --- but I'll download and check.

That source code "works" but is not elegant. Goldenboy ("gb") has made some far more appealing refinements according to his posts in the thread and I think there even might be a source code link.

I was going for "works" with the source code, progs.dat and sample map. And I mean "works". The absolute minimum botch job that I could achieve the desired results.

Like "win at all costs even if the win is ugly" type of win. I had limited time. But the modification functioned. Which was my single goal at the time.

I favor winning and shipping over doing nothing and letting 5 years go by ... for obvious reasons. Maybe goldenboy's source is better, dig through that thread ... you should be able to find it.

Baker can you please just release external texture support and pcx support. We can wait on the other fancy features, but those 2 things are in need right now

I'll think about uploading and releasing an old version that I do not consider fully debugged tonight with both of those features.

I probably do it ... and you might hate me for it. Not at first, but eventually.

[Mexicouger]

Great!

This is a "at your own risk" and help yourself source release.

Warning:

If I thought this should have been released, it would have been:

http://quakeone.com/proquake/interims/p ... xtures.rar

External texture support. You may need to open pspsgu\video_hardware_model.cpp and uncomment a couple of pieces of code.

I'd recommend a WinMerge against 4.70 to understand how the code works.

Limitations of external texture support:

1. Supports pcx ... 256 color paletted ... only
2. The external texture should be the same dimensions as the texture it is replacing. No scaling.

I had a crash issue not related to the code, was a memory issue of some sort --- maybe on a Slim PSP there won't be one. I cannot guarantee where I stopped or what type of debugging I had in place at the time.

Again, if I liked this version I would have released it and I was close to doing so at one point.

So External PCX support texture support is taking up alot of Ram?
How did Crow_Bar manage.

[Jukki]

does the pcx work for stuf like hud?

[tocateloswebos]

Can someone compile an EBOOT with Slim (64MB) support,pleaseÇ?

Thanks

[revelator]

not sure if its advisable to use pcx for hud elements i seem to remember pcx having trouble with alpha layered textures allthough i think mh fixed that in one of his engines once ? mhquake6 i think.

gonna have a look.

[tocateloswebos]

I compiled the EBOOT for Slim (64MB) PSP:

I didn't do PCX replacement textures for the HUD. Since most people are writing their own sbar code and making their own .lmp files. That being said, if you look at the replacement texture code I wrote it should be very easy to adapt.

[Jukki]

baker you external texture thing is fucked up i think. Even without modifications it is just black screen. Any idea?
