It's been a hardbreaker from the moment I tried to lay hold on it. Conveyor belts and quake func_trains don't like eachother, that is what timing concerns.
When you're really as mad as me you might try a static like this.

On ther other hand I spend a few moments to get a solution for it. It isn't that hard, you can do with two func_trains. That is.., when you fine tweak it to the right moment.
Here is an example, although it still has a wig in it. I went really domino after a few houres, but I think it can be done.

"Four feather" has a fine way of doing it, but it are all statics. So no.., I don't have a real solution than tweaking two func_lifts. Size, distance, time. 

Hey guys, I'm working on my map using trenchbroom and erics tools; I've got a body of water and I assign it to func_detail but this means the water is not transparent, despite any settings.
If I set it to func_wall, I can provide the spawnflag for translucency, but then it's not water any longer.
Any suggestions on what I do here? 

what if you don't assign it to func_detail? I don't see a good reason to make water "detail" 

Just like metlslime I wonder the reason why. Could you be more precise about what you're trying to do please? 

Doesn't need to be an entity to be transparent. You need to set 'wateralpha 0.5' or whatever number you prefer at the console. 

Like ijed said, set wateralpha to a value you like but remind that it's a key that has to be set in the worldspawn.
The wateralpha only has an effect on the texture "in game". You don't see it in trenchbroom.
For the brush, worldspawn and func_wall always work well.

I've deleted every light entity and light related worldspawn setting I can find but still get it :/ 

Texture of brushes are divided in opaque and fullbright's. Opaque are all brushes that won't reflect light as wall texture. Ornaments like light bulbs or flame mouths are fullbright. They don't need lightning of a map to reflect light.
Like a doormark they glow from themselves, so.., an unlighted map will still make a fullbright texture glow. 

Possibly some accidentally-set _minlight field on some func_detail or func_group? 

hmm I couldn't find anything like that in the map file but I saved it under a different filename and that fixed it hah 

Could have been an outdated .lit file then. 

Those red light textures in particular are from the 'fullbright' section of the palette and ignore lighting, always showing at full.

Listed as 'Brights' here: https://quakewiki.org/wiki/Quake_palette

If you want a dark version, copy then edit the texture in Wally, substituting the colours for ones not on that particular row.

Then you can toggle the textures on it, if you make it an animation and the brush a func_wall.

You can also make those textures actually emit light using EricW's tools: https://ericwa.github.io/ericw-tools/ 

 

I like negke's lit file theory.@zqf did you check for that and delete it? 

Saving under different filename fixed it, i too do think old lit file is the cause. 

Doesn't appear to be a lit file. It isn't present in the directory I'm testing from.
There is an error about a mismatching 'texinfo flags' during compile, could it be that? 

Sorry - saw the image on a phone so blanked on the glaring obvious.

And the incognito name got me :) 

Stop blinking headphone! 

It's been years since I last touched TB, but I clearly remember being able to toggle viewing brush edges when I used it back then. In the latest version, I can't for the life of me find this option in any of the menus.

Help...? 

Found it. Of course, TrenchBroom still for some reason has two separate menus called "view". 

(Sorry to post here since it's not asking for help actually, I already made 2 attempts in the 'News' threads but my post was thrown out :-((( )


Hello everybody,

I am specialized in mapping for Hexen II but some of you kindly offered precious help, advice and even benevolent participation during my mapping process, so I thought you might be interested in having a look at the brand new expansion pack I just released for Hexen II.

So...
PLEASE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
Let me glady introduce you my very first mapping work: 'Wheel Of Karma: A Tulku Odyssey'
Downloadable here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/12BK7oNYB1YaklJ6fN8fnSA0NdEB6nGlS/view?usp=sharing

It is a sequel to the official 'Portal Of Praevus' expansion game (which is therefore needed) which focuses on storyline, puzzles, a somewhat out-of-the-box touch, unexpected revisits of familiar entities and even a light RPG flavour...

Here is just Part 1, it will be a full campaign of about 20 to 30 maps probably, but I'll release it bit by bit over time.

Please don't hesitate to give tons of feedback: very rewarding for a beginner mapper, and will help me to fix issues in the next releases.
(And sorry in advance for the very amateur touch of the architecture and designs compared to the visual awes you're used to)

Screenshots here (if the link works):

(uhexen2.exe is the only known engine correctly handling the mission pack to date, you'll have to put it in your Hexen II directory) 

Inky: I just approved your news submission. I guess all the mods were asleep at the same time, so nobody saw it until now. 

Oh, great! Thank you! 

New to Quake mapping and I'm running into an issue where every time I teleport a wizard it telefrags! I have separate teleport destinations per-wizard. I tried adding different relays per wizard with different delays and it still doesn't work. I tried just teleporting one wizard and he still telefrags.

Is there something I'm missing like maybe my monster closet setup is busted? 

Loveschach - is there any chance you've accidentally got two wizards stacked together?
