While this map won't load on JK3 dues to an error on the entity lump of the bsp (a very uncommon error tho), if you're using Rend2 on OpenJK/EternalJK/TaystJK/etc, it loads just fine.

I tried to rescale this model a couple of years ago (since I felt it was too small), then learned that to properly do that I'd need to reanimate it entirely to look good, now that I'm slowly learning to use Blender and the tools allow it, it would be an interesting project to learn that part of modding JK I never dared to touch, so I need to ask for the future; Is it the whole thing under CCBY-like license or just the original mesh and animations by Duncan? If I decide to improve the textures after making the whole thing bigger I might use some parts of your work on this textures @Circa, would that be right? My comments about what I tried are around on the Discord hehe, if you try to just make it bigger without actually reanimating it, it looks like it's falling appart:

Awesome! I was about to try that mod in the following days

I don't mention it on the file but if anyone wants to port it for JKA, be my guest.

You just gave me an idea, I'll be back here in eight days

What!? That were their heads? I thought they were wearing a big hoodie, somehow they remind me of Earthworm Jim.

I came just to say this; the thing about lights is that when you compile (not decompile), you can decide to keep the lights as dummy entity data with -keeplights, most base maps were compiled this way, I learned a lot about how to properly do lights by looking at lights key/value data from single player maps, there you can see the little tricks to make illumination work in many different ways. You are correct, they are saved as entities but the engine pretty much ignores them. I do believe tho, that they're needed for SP maps for the NPC "senses" since there is code around light level regarding NPC AI. Edit; got it, it's unfinished code (funny comment right there) so yeah, the engine pretty much ignores light data: float G_GetLightLevel( vec3_t pos, vec3_t fromDir ) { /* vec3_t ambient={0}, directed, lightDir; cgi_R_GetLighting( pos, ambient, directed, lightDir ); lightLevel = VectorLength( ambient ) + (VectorLength( directed )*DotProduct( lightDir, fromDir )); */ float lightLevel; //rwwFIXMEFIXME: ...this is evil. We can possibly read from the server BSP data, or load the lightmap along //with collision data and whatnot, but is it worth it? lightLevel = 255; return lightLevel; } My theory about why they compiled most SP maps with -keeplights is that maybe they had in the design phase to actually have some sort of hide mechanic so you could hide in the dark, who knows?
