Heh, textures is the things, textures. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
Textures can easily add loads of details,but unfortunately i dont know much about skinning ![[Frown]](frown.gif)
Also, things can be added later, thats just an early version, most probably not finished. Better to finish the base model, look at polycount, and then add details, than adding loads of stuff at once, get to high polycount and have to begin to remove stuff.
Your expressed views and opinions are apreciated, though

Well, yes, it may look a tiny bit like "Taj Mahal" (sp?), if it is that you are thinking about, but i didnt think of that when i made it
Got some suggestions from a friend, and mixed with what i had in thought it became like that
As for MoRns name, i can assure you, no, its not from KoRn ![[Wink]](wink.gif) (but its a cool band, KoRn )

Finished beta2, hollowed it out, so it has some rooms. One small entrance hall, two small rooms to the sides, and one main hall in the middle. Its not easy to see anything more than before, so i wont post pictures yet.
Upped polycount to 1120
I will try to add some ramps to the main room, but i dont know how to add lights. Should i do that in Leveledit or RenX? ![[Confused]](confused.gif)

I am working on my first Renegade map now
Very simple, though, cause i am not that good, and its best to start out simple, i think
I hope to have the GMax terrain finished today.
(i am almost finished with it, it think, if nothing diastrous turns up)
But i hate the bug-ridden RenX! ![[Mad]](mad.gif)

This topic should be closed. I think it's the longest spam i've ever seen, lol.
1. It's quite easy to tell your not even working on this mod and that it will never be finished.
2. All it is is spam.
3. Dev, Deliete this topic!

1. we/i am/are trying to make this mod. There is no great or quick progress, but i am always doing what i can to make things that can be of use in this mod. I am still not very experienced, so i cant make much advanced stuff, but if i knew how to make this mod completely, i would use all my time on it. I can make (some simple) models, but know very little about leveledit or how to make/create and export a mod, so not much is happening there. I am also busy making my first map right now (which also gives valuable experience).
This thread is also here to let people see the idea, and let them tell if they want to contribute.
Altough some posts (like the many bumps) are unnesecary, this thread is in no way spam.

Hmmm, this looks interesting. . . .I have watched this thread for many weeks I have . . . AND IT IS SO COOL! ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) I myself am SO new to skinning editing. . that well, um, lets not talk about that! ![[Embarrassed]](redface.gif) ![[Eek!]](eek.gif) But, I am trying to learn this stuff, and enjoy myself. I think its a great idea, and um, I kinda *squirms* wanted to help. BUT BE WARNED! I KNOW NOTHING! NOTHING! Of making maps, and. .I KNOW ALMOST NOTHING about modding (im starting w/ Commando level editor) AND I HAVE ONLY BEGUN COLORING SKINS DIFFERENTLY! So, since you are the creator of this, and i want to join, be on your gaurd and DO NOT just say "sure!" If i join you, I want it to be because you DECIDED. Not becuase you were worried about hurting my feelings or even just saying yes because you felt pressured. Evaluate me, and if i live up to your standards, say yes. If not, say no, and have no regard for my feelings. Even if you say no, I still may ask you about editing and modding. Tell me if this is ok. Oh, and you can ask me all the questions you want, because I need your whole-hearted assurity that I am worthy to become one of your team. So, ask away!

Dont know anything? Doesnt matter, you can always learn.
Thats one thing i hope to acomplish with this project, learning more about modding
Feel free to ask me all your questions, and i ill answer the ones i can, it will be a great delight to help a fellow modder on his way
Just come on in, try to make something, and even if you fail, you will probably have learned something from it
Welcome and have fun

Whoa! Morn going hardcore! ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)
Just moderate your language a bit
I finished the terrain for the map in RenX, but it wont compile in Leveledit, (see the other thread), i will go check the other thread i made now.
I will also try to recompile the original test map i made a moth or so ago, and see if i can get the radar dome with the proper textures in-game
BTW, MoRn, in your signature it says "WOL nick: Mornmorn", have you finally got Renegade?

When i copied all the textured i used on the map to a folder called "textures" in the roof-gnome mod folder, i got those weird Westwood textures in place of the ones that i used in RenX. When i placed the textures in the main folder, the radar dome turned (mostly) black instead
Does anyone know how to get textures to function properly? Am i doing something wrong?

I think I know how to get your textures to work, but I'm not 100\% sure. Try placing your texures in the same folder as your W3D map file, that should get the textures in game, or make a new folder for your building and place the textures and the W3D files in there and tell Commado Level Edit where your new building is. Hope this is of any help, half the time I have no idea how i get things to work, or why they don't work. Good luck on your mod, sounds cool.

I have tried both to have the textures in the base mod directory, and in a sub-directory under the mod directory called "textures".
I think leveledit searches all folders and sub-folders, but it still doesnt work
