A fork of q3map2, now available as a stand-alone compiler targetting [FTEQW](https://www.fteqw.org/)
|
|

## Compiler Changes
|
|
|
|
|
- Improved High-Dynamic-Range lightmaps
|
|
|
|
|
- Support for our patchDef2WS and patchDef3WS curved surfaces in the BSP compiler, allowing for 4-way texture blended patches.
|
|
|
|
|
- Reads individual material scripts (.mat) instead of large .shader files
|
|
|
|
|
- Surfaces are aware which env_cubemap ents they belong to
|
|
|
|
|
- light_surface entity support, so you don't have to write map specific materials to override texture light properties
|
|
|
|
|
- Handles Half-Life styled point lights, including zhlt_lightflags
|
|
|
|
|
- Handles Half-Life styled light_environment entities
|
|
|
|
|
- New material keys: vmap_lightLinear, vmap_lightLinearFade
|
|
|
|
|
- Support for target-less spotlights
|
|
|
|
|
- Explicit support for func_detail, func_detail_illusionary
|
|
|
|
|
- Support for misc_prefab (including other .map files)
|
|
|
|
|
- vmap_remapMaterial/q3map_remapShader can carry over surface flags now
|
|
|
|
|
- Support for entity key: _entsurfaceflags, so surfaces can override their surfaceflags
|
|
|
|
|
- Support for entity key: _entcontentflags, so brushes can override their contentflags

## Compiling
|
2021-06-02 12:54:27 +00:00
|
|
|
To compile on a standard GNU/Linux system:
|
2023-10-09 03:21:07 +00:00
|
|
|
`make`
|
2021-06-02 12:54:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2023-10-09 03:21:07 +00:00
|
|
|
On BSD you should probably use GNU make right now.
|
|
|
|
|
Clang should also be supported, pass `CC=clang` if you want to use it.

|
On NT you'll have to jump through a lot more hoops, here's the gist:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. MSYS2: https://www.msys2.org/
|
2023-10-09 03:21:07 +00:00
|
|
|
2. in the msys2 shell, enter `pacman -S --needed base-devel git unzip mingw-w64-$(uname -m)-{toolchain,make,minizip-git}`
|
2022-06-19 15:51:01 +00:00
|
|
|
3. boot into the Mingw64 shell, don't use the stock MSYS2 shell
|
|
|
|
|
4. run make and it should build everything, in theory
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Please don't contact us about helping you build it on Windows. This is a development tool. This is provided AS-IS.**
