Non-faceted light shading, q1 bsp?

[jim]

I want some brushes have non-faceted shading. So is it possible to have a 8 sided cylinder look like a round object instead of hard cut 8 sided thing?

I've been using hmap2.exe to compile my maps... Are there any light compile tools that do what I want? Or is there some commandline option in hmap2 that's not documented in the help file?

What you're after is called phong-shading. Look for a light compiler which supports that feature. hmap2 iirc does not.

I've tried looking, but I couldn't find. I guess there aren't any then...

q3map2 supposedly does

[jim]

But then it becomes Quake 3 bsp and lightstyles become unsupported?

q3map2 can compile to rbsp too, which does support lightstyles.
As far as I know, dp doesn't support rbsp (fte loads them but ignores the extra lightstyle info).
To be honest, I don't have a clue about q3map2 itself. :P
