quake .map files

I am sure i have seen some code to load .map files ?

thanks

Matt

You mean .map from Quake III or Half-life format?

I don't think that code to do this exists.

If it's Quake III, you can compile to .bsp and load directly in using LoadBSP(). If it's Half-life (i.e. done in Hammer/Worldcraft) you can compile to .bsp, then convert to a .b3d model using BSP Factory - http://www.binary-people.com/app.php?id=3

well its some quake2 stuff i have , but thanks for the info

Matt

Just as further info....

The half-life (and Counterstrike, blue shift, opposing force etc.) .BSP's are in a previous .BSP format which is incompatible with Blitz's LoadBSP Command.

Here's a tutorial on how to load generic .map files

I hope you're well up on your 3D math :)
