My Custom Map

[randall]

Wait, how did you get it to export to WAD?

[Diego Cueva]

I think I just saved it in .WAD format

[randall]

As far as I can tell, Wally doesn't support the exporting of textures as a native WAD file.<br><br>I think what you have is a MIP texture with a WAD extension. WorldCraft just accepts anything with a WAD extension, thinking it is a true WADfile.<br><br>Anyway, export the texture to a MIPfile. Use Adquedit to insert the file into a WAD. You can even put it into an existing WAD, like one of mine or Quakes default WAD.<br><br>Sometimes Adquedit will ask you to rename the file when inserting it into the WADfile. Make sure you type just the name, and not the MIP extension.

Yeah, there's alot of BS when creating custom textures.

uummm please tell me u aren't gonna use that texture on the wal from  the normal quake i hate quake textures...

[Diego Cueva]

You dont like the texture, Chuck? I think it fits very well in a submarine map. But I´m gonna think about it again, thanks for you opinion. <br><br>Anyway, I will try to do what you said, Randall, using Adquedit. Oh, yeah, BTW, Now I remember what I did to save it. I created the texture using the .mip format in the "new" menu. Then I saved it as ".wad" on the save menu. (There are options to save in both mip and wad extensions).<br><br><br>Last modification: Diego Cueva - 05/30/01 at 09:17:26

Uhfff... it took me about half an hour to find what was the problem, but at least now it´s fixed...  :)

Any minute now, this thread will have more posts than MOOSE.<br><br>Alright, that's stretching it.<br><br>If Moose gives up all his points and status, then he can shut down this thread. You know he's just itchin' to do it.

[Diego Cueva]

LOL! ;D

I'm ready and willing to give up 600 posts to shut down this thread AND change Chuck's tag to "Nuck Futter."<br><br>I think that's a good idea. Being able to use your posts as a kind of payment on the website. That would be a good idea for the new website. Maybe let users "buy" a PocketPC T-shirt or something with 1000 posts. I'm sure some kind of currency could be easily implemented. Maybe it would only count posts that use up more than 10kb or 300 characters or something along those lines.

I said ALL your posts moose... AND your title.<br><br>People like Chuck would just abuse the "buying" system... and a minimum  word count wouldn't work either. Cuz he'd just write over and over:<br><br>Chuckster ownz yer azz!!!<br>Chuckster ownz yer azz!!!<br>Chuckster ownz yer azz!!!<br>Chuckster ownz yer azz!!!<br><br>This thread is off topic again.<br><br>Diego, I think the textures work pretty well for a submarine. I'm working on a UT map with a submarine, but haven't created any textures for it yet, otherwise I would convert them to Quake for you.<br><br>I'm having problems finding any decent information on German U-boats. I'd like the textures to at least resemble a u-boat.<br><br>Last modification: randall - 05/30/01 at 18:02:35

[Diego Cueva]

Yeah, when I started the map, I thought about making it a exact copy of a Nuclear Submarine. As it would be hard to be done, I created my own submarine design. The only thing I miss on it is an engine room... uhmm... <br><br>BTW, I need a world map texture. Where can I get it? (I thought about print-screening my Encarta´s world map, but, argh, the maps are "copyrighted" ) <br>Last modification: Diego Cueva - 05/30/01 at 18:25:24

i don't cheat to get posts. I just post on every single thread, unless i can't think of anything to say, which is a rarity

[Matt Keys]

Randall,<br><br>rent U-571 on dvd and pause whenever you see some good textures. i think they were pretty accurite in that movie. or maybe you could play it on you computer and snap a few pics of the movie, then convert them to 8bit color:)
