I set up a svn repository with the fully patched GtkRadiant 1.5 here, as it became unmaintained by the original authors:

svn://svn.icculus.org/netradiant/trunk


For releases and further information visit:

http://www.icculus.org/netradiant/


Changes to the stock Radiant 1.5 include:

• radiant: add a "Strafe Mode" option (to allow ctrl-shift-selecting faces in the 3D view without strafing like in 1.4)
• radiant: ctrl-tab now focuses all XYZ views in the three-part view (as that is what the user is likely to want there)
• radiant: make rotate/scale dialogs non-modal
• radiant: handle missing anisotropy extension; fixes display bug on Windows XP software renderer
• all: added a Makefile to build GtkRadiant; this replaces scons and python install.py
• all: got rid of libmhash dependency, using mdfour.c from DarkPlaces instead
• all: support cross compiling using mingw32
• q3map2: added lightmap exposure feature: -exposure 4.2 (Urban Terror)
• q3map2: floodlight: usage is "_floodlight" "red green blue distance intensity", default "240 240 255 1024 128"; works somewhat similar to dirtmapping (Urban Terror); uses a switch -lowquality
• q3map2: fix -convert -format map decompiling (note: outputs map in "Alternate Texture Projection" format); no longer messes up texcoords
• q3map2: added -game nexuiz to use good default paths for Nexuiz
• q3map2: fix incorrect plane snapping often causing holes in terrain
• q3map2: when importing models, allow "surfaceparms structural". This also turns off any plane snapping, as it is intended for caulk brushes inside a model
• radiant: also support "killtarget" as target key for drawing the targeting lines
• radiant: "expand selection to whole entities" now also selects the entity ITSELF; result: Ctrl-Alt-E Space makes a NEW entity now, instead of just duplicating the brush (old behaviour caused bugs in maps with copied func_ladders)
• picomodel: support .obj format as exported by Blender, with a .mtl file defining the shader names for each material; to export using Blender, enable "Materials" and "Material Groups" in the .obj export dialog
• q3map2: fix some deluxemap bugs (with ambient, for example)

(basically, all that is in nexuiz/misc/gtkradiant/singlepatches/, plus some new ones)

(Updated)
For Debian/Ubuntu/etc.

install the following package :

Code: Select all

apt-get install gcc g++ make subversion libgtk2.0-dev libgtkglext1-dev libxml2-dev zlib1g-dev libpng12-dev libglib2.0-dev

get the source (a fresh Nexuiz gamepack is included in netradiant/games/NexuizPack) :

Code: Select all

svn checkout svn://svn.icculus.org/netradiant/trunk netradiant

compile (take few minutes) :

Code: Select all

cd netradiant/
make


the binaries radiant.x86 and q3map2.x86 are located in netradiant/install/

to compile a new revision :

Code: Select all

cd netradiant/
svn up
make


If you get problems after updating, which should not happen, do:

Code: Select all

cd netradiant/
make clean all

Thanks alot divVerent. This is 100% more cool than the next cool thing produced by any competitor. GTKRadiant 1.5 in fact is currently much more usable than 1.6, so this is greatly appreciated.

Is this SVN repo hosted on a safe permanent host or shall we search for a hoster that (so we assume) would survive nuclear blasts?

A hoster would be good, maybe we could put this on icculus... but maybe we should ask some more projects if they are interested in it (e.g. Urban Terror, from whom a lot of the changes came)

ChangeLog is at http://emptyset.endoftheinternet.org/sv ... /ChangeLog contains a full list of changes compared to GtkRadiant 1.5

Okay, I'll organize something. Icculus for sure wouldn't be bad. From what I hear "TwentySeven" was/is UrbanTerror's "q3map2-guy" and I'll continue my efforts to contact him. He apparently wasn't on IRC for the last days (at least not in the official UT channel), but then again I can also try a forum PM.

Currently in process of doing the next big change: removing the libmhash dependency, and removing scons dependency (who really has these installed anyway?)

The Makefile you see in svn is incomplete, but should already build a somewhat working GtkRadiant (except for its plugins like bobtoolz). the final goal of the Makefile is to faciliate Win32 builds done on Linux machines.

To compile with it, just run "python makeversion.py" then "make".

makeversion.py and install.py will go later too.

COMPLETED.

How to compile now:

svn checkout http://emptyset.endoftheinternet.org/sv ... t15/trunk/ GtkRadiant-1.5-div0
cd GtkRadiant-1.5-div0
make

No more scons needed.
No more python needed.
No more libmhash needed.
Nexuiz gamepack already included.

Next goal is cross compiling to Win32, and removing all the SCons and Visual studio stuff.

I have almost no experience in compiling programs on Linux, so of course, when I tried to compile it (the one above this post) I could not get it to work. I searched the internet for some advice, but had no luck, so maybe someone of you knows. When I use "make" I get the following:

Code: Select all

openSuse 11.0, all the packages that Ronan mentioned should be installed (apt-get install gcc scons python subversion libgtk2.0-dev libgtkglext1-dev libxml2-dev zlib1g-dev libpng12-dev libmhash-dev)

I'm not asking for a through solution, but you may know in which direction I should search further. Anyway, sorry for bothering you with this.

svn update, then try again. I added this library dependency.

Actually it's the dependencies for radiant1.5 vanilla and zeroradiant. With div's cleanup, some aren't needed. I updated my post with the new build process.

New option: BUILD=

Usage:

make clean all BUILD=release

makes a release build, as opposed to the default debug build. Should be faster and smaller, but if a bug happens, no way to trace it.

It works!!
Thank you for your really quick and problem solving response. I'm so relieved right now, it is absolutely excruciating to execute make and then just watch it building it for several minutes, without knowing what is going to happen. (That is not to imply that I doubt divVerent's genius )

UPDATE: I just compiled my map, and every single problem I had with the autoclipping (and I had a lot of them) is gone!
This is simply GREAT! Thank you so much.

The windows build (see top post) is verified working now. Download it and enjoy!

I'll give it a try with the new map I'm planning to work on soon.

I have another name idea: Radiant + Nexuiz = Raduiz (read like "radius", of course )

Nice idea, but the plan is to not just use it for Nexuiz, although for licensing reasons, the NexuizPack is currently the only default installed game pack.

Ok, so what about simply calling it Radius, the ones who know that you have improved it will get the connection.

The name should make it rather obvious what it is.. so it should contain Radiant in some clear way. Then this project might attract others and it could get improved..

nRadiant (where n means new, next or nexuiz)

Made a new Windows build, updated the URL above.

nRadiant sounds good

I think the decision was already made. It is called NetRadiant.

Div, fix the links and update checking. I'm getting could not launch browser and updates are definitely not in qeradiant.com now.

Sorry for not being on irc and testing. Work takes too much time these days.

There are no replacement sites for that yet, but a project website is in the works.

But I need a better splash screen slogan... currently I am using this:



Actually, the image part is made with Radiant and q3map2 and rendered in DP (and you see an electro primary blast)...

How about "We are the community. You will be assimilated"

I'll draw a better splash screen when I get home.

Took me a second but I like the basic idea.

Can you keep it based on that object? A .map file of the object is incldued in the svn at http://emptyset.endoftheinternet.org/sv ... splash.map - you can turn this into an ASE by compiling with q3map2, then using q3map2 -convert -format ase splash.bsp.

The height of the T bar cannot really be changed, but maybe it looks better when using multiple light sources to cast the T shadow (light sources arranged on top of each other).

NOTE:
You can get an experimental Windows build at http://emptyset.endoftheinternet.org/~r ... -win32.zip

Can you still select a single (or more) brush inside an entity (say a func_rotating) and use space to duplicate them inside that entity. I use that when I need to edit an entity that I didnt' build to how I should have.

Sure, as long as you do not hit Ctrl-Alt-E, the brushes are selected and can be duplicated (matches original GtkRadiant 1.5). Only what happens if Ctrl-Alt-E is pressed got changed.

In the top post it says you can get an experimental Windows build at the included link. I downloaded the 'newest' but all I seem to have gotten is Nexuiz. I can't find any .exe file for netradiant in the download. What am I doing wrong?
