Implementing Doom 3 maps

[theusurper]

Well i was looking around after Div said that the engine can support IDTech4, and i'v hit a wall.. and i have the following notes to leave(for my own reference and for anyone else who wants to implement this.)

DP will have to be modified to support dynamic lighting. - edit: ok this is already there! stupid me..

a lot of the IDtech4 maps support megatexture.. time to support the same?
DP must literally be modded to come to the level of tech 4 to support .md5 or so i believe.. plz correct me if i am wrong. though this is quite a massive undertaking if even possible(ok idtech4 is kinda old but i dont really see where to start.), if we are to go through with this, we will essentially have to overhaul DP.. again i maybe terribly mistaken.. this is my analysis thus far..

A penny or two for ur thots.[/quote]

doesn't DP already have dynamic lightning? even if not that advanced as doom3

It does. Its just annoying to place in maps because you have to use the ingame edit mode for them.

well, that wouldn't be a problem with doom3 maps, would it (since they are already supposed to be there)

i see so i was mistaken about dynamic lighting.. if we already do have dynamic lighting why is every1 still compiling lightmaps for pete's sake.. k so point no1 is gone..

Because it, that is, "realtime world lights", is slow.
