Also does anyone know what map has a "bloodfall" texture? I think I recall playing a map that had one but I can't remember what map.

ps Bal shit is as inspiring/dispiriting as ever.
Love the pointers and hints marbled in with the brainbreaking detail shots.
Negke - yes please! Some of my favourites from you are in this vein. Hope to get to play eventually. I'll even record a demo! (will probably record it in quoth though, full disclosure)
Shambler - you've been oddly quiet on the map front as of late! Here's hoping you release something with a proper skybox, some fog and nice coloured lights some time soon 

Thanks for the encouragement, I haven't been mapping nor playing Quake though, I've been catching up on other games, and painting: https://teamshambler.blogspot.com/ 

@Qmaster, are you still working on the keep mod? 

 

hope you map soon tho 

 

Finally a way to blast the window and get way through the pew!

stupid, it's sealed. 

 

+ window_01 

...be a downer, but is that window intended to be used in places where a solid wall would exist underneath it?

Using Hourences' converted icy skaarjtech textures from Xidia Gold. 

Presuming it would be on 64 units height would give a natural look. It is always possible to lower the gibs of the underlying debris.

It is made as a static_debris using "newton force", that makes it possible to ruin every object in an exploding act so al components make a real advantage use of the gravity they depend on.

I made it a second time, as the first one didn't give enough space to crawl through. Now I'm left with a ruined scrambled skin.

These are both static_debris with the original as reference. I used the HR tga windows0_1 skin file, so it might look a bit pale.

Now it has ruined my qc knowledge how to toggle it on and off for use as breakable and how to correkt the skin file. 

as this is the beta thread..,
here you can find both files.
If someone can clear up my qc settings I would explode it! 

it looks like half the debris will end up inside the wall. 

I know. The first one with the falling glass ends nice upon one side, but won't leave space to get through.
The exploding one will leave debris in the wall, but I don't think that's relevant taking in mind that there are fifty scattered objects. They do fall both sides, are penetrable. I made the bouncing box just high enough to jump over.

My god, I start excusing my glass assurance!:P

I'd say it's very relevant. Just tweak the direction of the force in your simulation to throw them clear. Should be a trivial fix. 

I could make a debris causing it in or outwards.
I did it this way because I want to use it on both sides.

You are right saying it is relevant, but do you see much errors except the scrambled skinfile ? 

madfox: It's only a polish thing. The physics simulated pieces in your current animation are impressive looking, but it will be less impressive if they pass through the surrounding wall geometry without reacting to it.

This is already above the quality bar expected by quake players in terms of breakable objects. 

Tracing my workaround I see myself with an idea. The first window was a catch, but had a bit lame appearance. That's how I window would act when beaten by an axe. Then I to get through of it, and have the look of a grenade explosion.

After making the right setup I was able to get a real explosion blast. By then I was so surprised a bit attention lost my intrest in doing better.
