The stable version of FTE is basically from the stone age. It#s no wonder that stuff created by the stable version might not work with the latest version. It's labeled "Old Stable" for a reason.

The current SVN version is very stable too, there has been a huge amount of testing and bugfixing ...

Try this shader.

Your custinfoparms.txt looks ok.

I'd suggest to use misc_model and compile them into the BSP, and just use vertex lighting on those trees.

That's just my opinion though.

IQM is excellent if you're creating original models in Blender - exporting to FTE or DP is almost a one-click thing.

It's a WIP engine from a dead project. It was never intended as a general use Quake engine and never officially declared stable. It doesn't support SDL 2 - you'll need libSDL and sdl-mixer version 1.xx to compile. Linux version compiles fine for me, btw.

The latest public version is in the RMQ SVN ...

I think that's better already.

That logo... sorry, that's just a bad choice. At least choose a different background for the emblem. *cough*

Doesn't this have all kinds of legal issues?

good thinking there pitchatan.

For Radiant users, if you want to cook with gas, you can convert q1 .map to q3 .map using old versions of q3radiant (2.02 IIRC, look at the id software ftp server.) From then on, you can simply use the Darkplaces gamepack for mapping instead of the Quake one.

For triggers and such, you can simply ...

I really don't know in which subforum to post this, so I put it here.

Just so you know, GIMP's overlay mode is completely broken. It is identical to "Soft Light". They're not fixing this because everyone got used to it.

Here is how to emulate Photoshop's Overlay mode in GIMP:

Use "Hard Light" but ...

I tend to work with synergies instead of recruiting people. It can work really well.

Draw a polygon with the image applied as a shader, and rotate that. This also allows you to have perspectivic HUD images, like Crysis 2 and all those other modern games. Alternatively, perhaps use a particle if you want to do crazier things wth images.

Otherwise, if someone creates a patch that ...

A new pair of breasts with an elf attached!

Yeah, baby steps. Good player models are harder to make and animate than 2D stuff.

Although I guess a simple rigged Quakeguy wouldn't be that hard.
