Well done! Hopefully all the pipes aren't too bad for the performance.

Thank you hutty I did not realized it.

No1 map layouts both of you!

Eh, that one reminds me of a smaller portion of a large map that popped up somewhere around Nexuiz 2.4.

right nowWell done Maddin, Keep it up

Holy cow that looks good!
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - Majki - 05-01-2012
Maddin you use 3ds Max/Blender for maps? Or pure radiant?
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - Maddin - 05-01-2012
Only the terrain parts (and the grass) are modified with Blender and exported as separate models. Everything else is built in NetRadiant.
The terrain was created in the following way:
- created quadsoup terrain in GtkRadiant 1.4
- exported it separately with Q3Map2 as an obj model
- imported it in Blender
- optimised the mesh and the UV map
- exported it as an md3 model
- placed the model in the map with NetRadiant

How you clip terrain?
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - monad - 05-01-2012
That looks really nice.

Thanks everybody!

But this should only be done with complex models or models which need a high detailed clipping. Otherwise you should use a brush covered with the "common/weapclip" texture. (-> e.g. boxes, lamps, ...) Additionally I checked "force_meta" to force grid-lightmapping which looks way better than vertex lighted (but also takes more time to compile the map).

You know that autoclipping creates couple of brushes per tris in model? And it's destroys performance?
So for example - compare clipping a box (one clip brush for it) or auto clip (count triangles and do the math).
Or Xontotic has some magic q3map2 version which deals with this problem O_O
RE: Screenshots of what you're doing. - Maddin - 05-02-2012
As I said it shouldn´t be done if it can be avoided. But try to clip such a shaped mesh with normal brushes by hand! Good luck!
It doesn´t destroy the performance as long as you keep the amount of triangles low and the model itself "small". At least I don´t recognise any fps drops, it´s always at about 200-300 fps (HIGH effects settings), and there isn´t ANY VIS optimisation nor is it hiding any sections of map.
Compared to the terrain parts of the current Xonotic maps which use patch meshes (!), this method is way more performance friendly. Later on, if some people still got problems with it I´ll add LOD for these parts.

Gotta praise this screenshot!
Great work, Maddin!
