info: dk_olt (One Last Time) is a map I never really intended to make. I thought I was done with the Q3 engine, but....I was wrong. The D3 tech looks so nice, and I liked DooM 3 and Quake 4, but the sad fact is nobody really plays them. I love QW:ET, but as of yet the tools are not released. So, being a die hard Q3 fan, I returned to what I know. I have tried to make a Q3 map that *could* be Q4. Most of the geometry was created externally in Blender 3D, and imported in sections into Radiant. I have worked hard to control vis whilst building most of the level out of models. Some areas of UVw mapping are a little warped, ad a few seams are obvious, but all in all, things have worked out pretty well.

See the readme included in the pk3 for more infos

Indeed, fresh new look.

it just miss the sv_q3acompat_machineshotgunswap 1 thing.

[Strahlemann]

gah....
nexuiz autogenerated this in the mapinfo for the first q3 maps i converted. why doesn't it do so for the latest... well, i'm gonna fix it. Thanks for pointing it out again

[Ronan]

Code: Select all

mapinfo.qc-543-         fh2 = fopen(strcat("scripts/", pFilename, ".arena"), FILE_READ);
mapinfo.qc-544-         if(fh2 >= 0)
mapinfo.qc-545-         {
mapinfo.qc-546-                 fclose(fh2);
mapinfo.qc:547:                 fputs(fh, "settemp_for_type all sv_q3acompat_machineshotgunswap 1\n");
mapinfo.qc-548-         }


it's generated when the original pk3 have a .arena file in the scripts/ folder. I suppose you used the .mapinfo created after your editing process (new name for the .bsp) or something like that...

[Strahlemann]

yep... that's it. Good to know

I'd say that this is a perfect candidate for a 16 players DM server

Although the map seems very small I don*t believe it actually is THAT small
