Get the latest drivers for your Radeon card. This should fix the problem.

I will post some screenies of what I came up with in the next couple days, once I figure out how to get the file size down a bit. I ended up taking an easy route, and approximating and plotting the spawn points on an overhead screenshot, while looking at the decompiled bsp file. I dodged all that ...

Show spawn points....

I am trying to make tactical overhead maps for my clan, and there are things I need to be able to do in order to accomplish this. First of all, my plan is to host a server, and take screenshots, and label them with a graphics program. I want to be able to view all the spawn points for the stock maps ...

Rox, I wish I wrote a tut that good. :lol: It was written by Jeff Lee. I knew you especially would appreciate the link though. :D

I just did a little more reading, and came across Z-fighting. Would these problems be an example of that?

Thanks for your help Roger. I know I got off topic a little bit, and got ambiguous. I didn't know if the 2 errors I was getting were related or seperate. You made it clear to me they need separate fixes. I will use your advice to solve my one problem, and Bjarne's advice to solve my other although I ...

Well, I just found this site (and mapping in general) 2 weeks ago, but that can't keep me from offering you my hopes and prayers. Don't worry about not being able to help us in your absence, because you've organized such a great site here I already have all the help I need at my fingertips for many ...

Bjarne, thanks for the first link you listed. It is a true gem.

I already read vis for dummies, but thanks for that link too. It's a great tut.

Ok I am a nOOb too, and I have had problems when using the caulk texture. When I place caulk on the underside of a wall that is flush to the ground sometimes in game it looks like the light is going under the wall. I also usually get light leak compiler errors too. Would it be better for me to use ...

Yes it is old, but just as applicable today as it was before, and probably will be for the new expansion.

Could anyone tell me if the face or costume textures can be transfered and used in any Q3 based game? Do the wrapping coordinates (or whatever they're called) remain the same from game to game ...

Face skinning tutorial.

Here's a face skinning tutorial I read about 8 months ago, and was surprised I didn't see it mentioned anywhere in the Skinning / Modelling forum. It's a great tutorial for beginners. In fact, it's the first modding tut for MOH I ever read. If you look at my current avatar to the left, that is my ...

I know this post is old, but I love a good controvery.

I really don't know why people make racism an issue, because of the making of a black skin. Why did Yarik so he wasn't racist a couple times? I guess the theory goes that a racist could force models, and only be killing blacks. People shouldn't ...

Dead links to pics... frustrating.

Please keep pictures that you linked to in the proper directory for nOObs like myself, who are going through these posts looking for answers. About 90% of the links to pictures in the Skinning / Modelling forum are now dead, and it becomes frustrating to see "Check out my new skin below" and seeing ...

I feel bad for the human Allies in the hunt, because they have little defense to the grenade spam in the beginning other than luck and a few random nade tosses to keep the Axis at bay. I don't know if bots can use such strategies. Could bots throw random nades at certain locations as a defense ...
