That's not what I'm trying to do haha. That checks around the player. With that code, the rocket could be behind the player and still detect it. I'm thinking something more like fisible from frikbots but from the perspective of the players v_angle detecting what the player can actually see.

Im having troubles on how I would code it to check if a certain entity is within the current viewing angles of the player. anyone mind pointing me in the right direction? And if Im a little unclear, let me explain.

Your the player. Say theres a rocket launcher on the ground. How could you check and ...

While Im on topic, how exactly do I create a cloud layer? I thought I was doing it right but I guess not. And my skybox doesn't show up automatically either, I have to load it through the console "loadsky sky_"

textures/map1/map1_skybox
{
qer_editorimage textures/map1/sky1.tga
surfaceparm ...

I tried your shader as well and applied it and its still nothing but a black box... Im wondering if theres something more I need to do with creating a box around my map. Do I need to just apply the shader on the inner faces, and apply something else on the outer faces?

EDIT: My bad haha. I just had ...

Im having quite a bit of troubles getting a skybox to show up! I have a hollowed box around my map with a shader named map1_sky.
Then my shader looks like this:

textures/map1/map1_skybox1
{
qer_editorimage textures/map1/sky1.tga
surfaceparm noimpact
surfaceparm nolightmap
surfaceparm sky
q3map ...

Is this possible in Darkplaces?

No I never even heard of them haha. I put it on katsbits though! And no problem haha.

Hey all,
If anyone uses md3 and the newest blender(2.63a), you may have noticed an issue when exporting tags and the program erroring out. Well through trial and error, I fixed the tag export issue and tags are now exportable! I thought I'd share it with anyone using md3 and the latest blender ...

No I'm not looking for mdl. I was looking for .md3 but goldenboys link set me in the right direction. I upgraded to 2.63a of Blender and it works fine for the most part. Tags on .md3 cause an error with the latest blender, but everything else works fine.

I am having a hard time finding .Md3 export scripts for blender 2.59. Do they exist for anything but Blender 2.49? I have done alot of searching and haven't found anything.

Thanks Spike! I was looking at Routing haha.
I had a very rough idea of Dijkstras algorithm in my head, but it wasn't as useful.

I have been racking my brain for several days trying to come up with the BEST method of doing this. So far, I have failed to do a DIRECT path from the waypoint closet to the target, making a path to the AI in a map.

My current code for making a path.



void(entity l1, entity l2, entity client) Ai ...

Alright I tried Mh's userdir idea and it worked. I mapped the game out to my current directory but I feel like this will limit the game to my computer.

Augustine -window -listen 8 -userdir C:/users/Tevin/Dropbox/Augustine/Augustine/
EDIT: I tested this and it worked.

-userdir augustine\
But ...

Does that generate a log file in the directory of the game?
Also, Just to note, my last darkplaces build had some heavy HUD code and a completely new menu, and it works just fine. But when I update it, and stick in the old Quake menu and HUD files, it doesn't say its missing unlocatable data or ...

Hey all. I recently updated my Darkplaces engine to a newer build (Because the one I have been using is very outdated. Don't even know how I got it.), and I've been spending the last few days trying to fix what should be an easy problem. Basically My problem is that almost nothing involving text ...
