I'me trying to learn how to map for JKII. To date, I've exausted all of the information available on RichDiesal's JKII site, and the Massassi temple. To date, these are the only two *working* pages that I have found with any relevant map editing information or tutorials. Where can I find more?

Telemachus, what do you mean by "inverse a bevel"? You can flip it on an axis and get it to curve another way... You can also invert the texture by pressing CTR + I. _______________ The only thing better than playing JA is making JA levels! Shadow Faction- a new JKII competition community center.

Just out of curiosity, how well do you think "Also Sprach Zarathustra" would work in a map? Just wondering. |

Glass is easy enough. All you really need is to set the brush to func_glass. Make sure that only the sides you will see are textured with glass; leave everything else as caulk. Note that blasters just bounce off it, so it is best to turn on cheats and test it with a grenade or rocket.
Water is easy if you follow the tutorials closley enough. However, some of his phrasing requires some more clarification. Just remember not to stack water on the 'Z' axis, make the whole brush out of 'caulk_nonsolid', and texture only the top and bottom with water. Note that, using 'caulk' where the water brushes meet on the 'X' and 'Y' axis is undesireable as they cast shadows; use 'nodraw' instead. Curves really do require a sh*tload of experimentation to *perfect*, and if anyone knows how to manually make an inverse bevel *please* tell me. -Tel |

just today i looked at rich diesel's one and must say it is really good to start with. i've never done a map so far, but i build two rooms with a bridge, ammo and lights already ^_^. sounds amazing, doesn't it? 
erm, btw could ya tell me how to do glass? setting "function_glass" is enough? and how to do water? and have i to do every single step or is there a plugin or something? and how to do curved surfaces? _______________ Aeth S'kray *June 2002 +September 2003 |

I cant find any more either. However, I have learned alot from just experimenting with different things in Radiant. _______________ The only thing better than playing JA is making JA levels! Shadow Faction- a new JKII competition community center. Check it out at www.ssresources.com/shadow |
