If a Shambler doesn't fit then neither will an Ogre or a Fiend, they share the same bounding box size. 

 

There are two bounding box sizes in Quake: 32*32*64 and 64*64*96 - there needs to be enough room for the whole box to fit plus a couple of units leeway. So in order for a monster to be able to walk the stairs, there must be enough room above and in front of it. To examplify, make a brush of the same size and try to move it down the stairs without it touching or intersecting anything.

Try r_showbboxes 1 to get an idea how it looks in game.

Hi, this is my first map, looking for at least 1 person to look for bugs before an "official" release. The map is Id1 with a skybox, the readme has instructions, a story and more.

Thank you everyone, I look forward to feedback anyone can give. My email is in the readme for bug reporting. 

Congrats on almost getting ready for a release!

Nighttime terracotta with some lava is a nice mix! 

You got mail sir 

keep it up 

 

Thank you all for the comments and especially the demo Daz. I'll be making whatever changes I can according to feedback before I post the map up officially.

Thanks again! 

Before releasing, if you're using ericw's light compiler, won't you try to apply some Phong shading in these columns? Check this out: https://ericwa.github.io/tyrutils-ericw/

Anyways, I love when people dare on brushwork. Looking forward to play!

I made some statues as details/fillers. The sphinx-like ones are cute; as for the other ones, however, they kind of look like penguins or pidgeons wearing ties?! Maybe if they carried crates on their heads.... 

are officially a Lovecraft monster.... 

....but not the negke map I am looking for. 

...it turns out that they worshipped penguins. Who would've thought it? 

guess I was wrong... I love bsp prefabs like that 

I made a Quake Team Fortress map using Trenchbroom. I thought I might add a SS.

Cool stuff, I like the moat! 

....but the overall style of that map looks very cool :) 

I wonder, is there an active TF community? 

Tip: make the top of the mountains a large rectangle, all back edges running in a straight line, in order to have only five sky brushes with smooth surfaces. Saves some polys.
