I'm not sure what you mean by my version of the .map versus the original, sorry

November 9, 2017

I've recently encountered a new problem, in which terrain entities become invisible, yet structurally still active, after compiling maps. I've never had this sort of issue before, and typically incorporate terrain developed in Easygen in my maps. I've already determined that there's nothing wrong with my shader or alphamap files, yet for some strange reason any terrain entities become completely invisible in game. I believe it has something to do with my compilation process, perhaps q3map2 isn't recognizing my shaderlist.txt?

In troubleshooting the anomaly, I downloaded the "Terrain" prefab, placed the alphamap pcx in my base folder, the shader in base/shaders, added the shader to shaderlist.txt, and compiled the map. The terrain was invisible in my compiled .bsp, yet visible in the already compiled bsp that comes with the prefab.

This has been a very annoying problem to suddenly arise for seemingly no reason, and I would very much so appreciate any assistance or advice. Thanks in advance.

November 11, 2015

Well, the problem has since resolved itself without my intended efforts. I'm assuming it was just a compilation glitch of a sort, because it only occurred in a single map.

Sorry for the late reply, I kind of assumed this topic was already dead. I haven't actually checked to see if the sprites were being rendered on the inverse side of the texture, that had not occurred to me as a possibility. Is that a common shader problem that I was unaware of? Either way, I'll have to check and see.

October 18, 2015

I was near completion of my newest map, when I realized that grass sprites weren't present on the group entity used for terrain. Everything else functions as desired, all other shaders have been successfully integrated without error, and even my grass sprite texture functions as desired when applied to a standard worldspawn brush, yet when applied to terrain, the sprite portion of it fails to load. I have determined that this failure is caused by the fact that the terrain brushes are part of a single group entity, and in some way this disables the ability of the shader to include sprites. The q3map_material was obviously retained regardless of the entity status of the brushes the shader was applied to, along with a few other lighting properties, excluding only the sprites.

This ability for the map to include grass sprites on the terrain is fundamental to the concept of the map. I spent quite a long time perfecting the functionality of the grass shader specifically for the purpose of applying it to the terrain brushes.

I have already attempted making the terrain brushes part of the worldspawn, but this results in an unavoidable safe_malloc error during the light portion of compilation (the pc used for compilation has 8GB of Ram and a 4 core 2.8GHz processor, and the >2GB Memory Q3map2.exe was used) , and as a result is not an option. Precautions to avoid excessive lag (such as detail v. structural brushes, use of patchwork when possible, etc.) have already been taken as well.

To emphasize, the only problem is the grass sprites not loading on terrain brushes. Any ideas or assistance are greatly appreciated.

@@mrwonko

Do you know of any OpenJK mods that include "trueview" in their source code? I've never understood code very well, but I'm fairly confident that the set of .dlls that I'm currently using are what allow for "trueview." It would be very nice to have a more efficient renderer, but at the same time I can't really afford to lose the nice camera effects in my current set of code.

That q3map_surfaceModel option seems as though it may work. I have an idea. Perhaps I could make a grass model that is a single surface with a grass sprite texture, then animate that texture in a shader to simulate wind. I could then use that model in a texture shader that makes use of the surfaceModel option. Unfortunately I foresee this method as causing more fps drop than before, due to the high amount of models that would be rendered, regardless of their simplicity.

Still, I feel as though there must be some kind of loophole that we could exploit in order to get more realistic grass in game.

NumberWan · October 12, 2015

I was creating a new grass texture/shader and realized that I didn't know how to change a few of the sprites' properties. I want to know what determines sprite size (height of grass blades), and density (how many there are per brush).

Below is an example of one of my shaders.

textures/2_modernist/wildgrass
{
	q3map_normalimage	textures/2_modernist/grass_normal
	qer_editorimage textures/2_modernist/wildgrass
	q3map_material ShortGrass
	q3map_forceSunlight
	q3map_nonplanar
	q3map_shadeangle 120
	tessSize 2048
	{
		map $lightmap
	}
	{
		map textures/2_modernist/wildgrass
		blendFunc GL_DST_COLOR GL_ZERO
	}
	{
		map textures/2_modernist/grassprites2
		surfaceSprites vertical 15 10 20 250
		ssFademax 1600
		ssFadescale 1.0
		ssVariance 1 2
		ssWind 0.5
		alphaFunc GE192
		blendFunc GL_SRC_ALPHA GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA
		depthWrite
		rgbGen vertex
	}
}

This functions well in game, yet the grass is almost as tall as the player, and density is not very desirable. I tried changing the ssFadescale value, but anything above 3000 lags.

The cause of lag is somewhat of a mystery to me, since my PC is able to run GTA V and SWtoR at maximum graphics without issues.

For those who haven't seen it, below is an image of SWtoR grass.

Finally, this is what I'm attempting to achieve with my grass shader.

Thank you, I tested both pk3s, and it turned out they used the same models, except with different icons and sounds. Either one will work.

Also, I should probably have asked before, but the Vegeta (from DBZ) player model would also be nice to have again, if it isn't too much trouble anyways.

Unfortunately modelling and animation are what I'm worst at in modding, otherwise I would offer to help. There are however, still some very skilled modellers that remain active in the JK3 community to this day, such as mrwonko, or minilogoguy18, who may or may not be able to finish the project. I could even make the texture for the model if needed.

Is this mod dead?.... I noticed the last few messages are dated at nearly a year ago. That's such a shame, that model looked like it had so much potential.

I'm not sure if this has been answered before, but how do you get functioning, rotating, moving, destroy-able, asteroids into a space-themed map? I know that it uses a script, and I planned on using the one made for the "Asteroids" mod, which I'm pretty sure is a modified version of the one used for the Siege Destroyer map. I also decompiled both the Asteroids map, and the Siege Destroyer map to see how the scripts were put into effect in game. After a few attempts to replicate the setup, I was unable to get anything functioning correctly. Asteroids pop into and out of the map at random times and at random coordinates, travel through solid brushwork, and when shot at, split into fragments large enough to fill the entire map. Not sure if anyone knows how to help, but I figured that it would be worth it to ask regardless.

Alright, good to know. Thanks for the information, I'll keep it in mind for future projects.

@@AshuraDX

Ah, that makes so much more sense. I thought that it only worked that way with .pk3, but if the individual .shader files load in an alphabetical order, and two .shader files define the same shader with different properties, then the one coming afterwards would likely have dominance over the other. Although, I'm still not quite sure, because the new .shader was titled "new_water", while the old one was "gfx", so I would assume that the new one would come first. Perhaps there is something else that I'm overlooking.

August 11, 2015

Oh, sorry. I suppose I read your question incorrectly the first time. I place the .shader files in the folder titled "shaders" within the .pk3s.

@@eezstreet

I'm not sure why, but your suggestion worked. The game must have been determined to use the original gfx.shader file over the new one that I created, because as a result, overwriting the old gfx.shader worked. Do you have any idea why the new .shader files I was making could not overwrite the old one?

August 11, 2015

Well, I've placed the .pk3s in both the base folder and my personal mod folder for testing, and both yield the same result.

As for the .jpg format, it was my understanding that Jedi Academy doesn't support progressive .jpgs, so I've been leaving that export option unchecked after creating new textures or gfx.

August 10, 2015

Anyone else have any ideas?... I've still been trying a few different methods, but for some reason nothing seems to work. I suppose I'll have to just keep trying until I figure out what *does* work.

August 9, 2015

@@eezstreet

Yes, I've been placing the new .shader file in a pk3. The shader file is titled new_water.shader, the pk3 is titled module5.pk3, and I did remember to add "new_water" to the shaderlist.txt.

The original wake shader is the third shader defined in gfx.shader.

And I'm not really sure why I left "blendFunc GL_ONE GL_ONE" in the new shader, I suppose because it was part of the old shader and I was basing the new one off of the original in this instance.
