Spog said there wasn't. He gave me a very nice explanation about hint brushes though.

Does anyone know if the source code is available somewhere?
 That Stunning Allocate_hunc Error
#973 posted by madfox on 2004/01/20 12:23:39
Quake1 map, which had a big content.(1.7Mb)
I have changed the textures count to its limits.
Than deleted several brushes.
Now I have a map of 1426kb, but it gets stuck!
Don't know what it is, under DOS there is no problem. But this Win98 won't play my map.
Is there a solution? possible?
 Hunk_Alloc: Failed
#974 posted by aguirRe on 2004/01/20 13:57:53
You may need to allocate more memory for the engine by adding the command line option "-winmem 16" (DOSQuake) or "-heapsize 32768" (all other engines).
 Thanks

Didn't knew one could make the string longer.
Now it works with
quake.exe -winmem 16 -game aband +map start
Great!

In the 3d section of worldcraft a texture that Ive place on an angle appears straight but when the map is loaded its turned back in the other direction, however if I change it so it looks wrong in wc it actually looks right in game, is there anyway around this or do I just put up with it?
Also I have this concrete section where it uses a tex called divider1b on the top then a seperate brush using divider tex on it but when in game it uses divider1b over both brush (they are touching if that makes a difference).

Your qbsp prog should have a command line switch like -useoldaxis, -alternateaxis or something similar. Check the readme.
Using this switch when compiling should fix the problem.

Answer to second one:
This is a bug in WorldCraft.
If you've got a texture called divider, and another one called divider1b, if you apply the divider1b texture first, and then try to apply the divider texture, WC won't properly overwrite the string that stores the texture name, so it still reads the texture as divider1b.
A hack way to overcome this problem is to first change the texture into something completely different, (like wizmet1_2,) and then applying the divider texture.
The proper way to solve it, (besides haxx0ring WC or using GTKR instead,) is to rename the divider texture in the wad so it's named dividera1</y> or something like that.
You should make sure that there are no texture names in your wads that are such that you get another valid texture name if you append some more letters to it.
 Right, No Underline

dividera1 then...

Though, I didn't do that either, so I guess you're clear.

Working on a map with terrain. I used vertex manipulation, and there were no errors, according to "check for problems".
However, when i compiled, i got a large amount of brush with duplicate plane errors, and when i play the map there are rocks where there are not supposed to be rocks.
Is there an easy way to fix this error?
 Can Only Guess...

Importing the .map file back into your editor will show up the dodgy brushes & you can fix them.
I'm guessing you're using WC... the 'check for problems' is normally only useful for missing textures, mismatched targets or unrecognised entities etc.

I would like to know for sure if qbsp for q1 starts the same way as q3map does, with splitting the map along each, uh, axial plane before splitting by the rest of the geometry.

I think MapSpy will help you track down and/or fix duplicate planes. Also, QERadiant has a plugin that fixes duplicate planes. Very handy.

I get that error message too. I don't notice problems in the map though. It is annoying though and I wish I knew what caused it. I don't do booleans. I use the clip tool occasionally and I use vertex manipulation and face splitting a fair bit.
I have another error that won't do away. Using Check for Problems I get this: Solid Entity (func_door) is empty. Go to Error shows nothing and the Fix Problem doesn't remove it either.
But both these issues aren't stopping me from moving on. Just curious.

Ya, it's a phantom door that appears after some operations in Worldcraft.
If you get the error message, hit "go to error", the 0,0,0 point should now be centered, place your cursor over the origin point... if it goes red it means at some stage you've generated a phantom door as big as the grid. Hit delete. No more problem.
 Hm...

in gtkradiant, after manipulation vertices alot, sometimes, i will re make a flat face (which had been split up into two triangles, intead of a square) but gtkr won't recombine the two triangles itself. what i have to do it move the brush a bit, then gtkr gets rid of it. maybe that's what a duplicate plane is?
