Compiling:Batch Files

2012-11-14T14:58:49Z

DagF: /* About */

{{WIP}}

==Batch Files==

===About===

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batch_file Batch Files] are files with one or more command line. Batch files are often used to add surface sounds and bots. But they can manage the same as a frontend.

[[DagF_sample_batch]]

==Commands==

===The %1 variable===
The %1 variable can be very useful when making a batch file. Instead of a path to the file you want to work with you can simply use %1. This allows you to work with the file that are dropped on the batch file.

%1 refers to the file with it's drive, path, name and file extension.
Eg: "C:\urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\q3map2.exe"

%1 can be broken down to %~d1, %~p1 and %~n1 (there are more, referring to file extension, date and so but we don't need them here.)

%~d1 -Is the drive to the batch file or the file you drop on the batch file.
Eg: "C:\"

%~p1 -Is the path to the batch file or the file you drop on the batch file.
Eg: " urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\"

%~n1 -Is the name to the batch file or the file you drop on the batch file.
Eg: " q3map2"

By using this can we easily modify our compile.bat we find in our mapping folder.
This is what my compile.bat looks like now:

"C:\urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\q3map2.exe" -meta -fs_basepath "C:\urtmapping" -fs_game q3ut4 "C:\urtmapping\q3ut4\maps\lighttest_a_a5.map"
"C:\urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\q3map2.exe" -vis -fs_basepath "C:\urtmapping" "C:\urtmapping\q3ut4\maps\lighttest_a_a5.bsp"
"C:\urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\q3map2.exe" -light -fs_basepath "C:\urtmapping" "C:\urtmapping\q3ut4\maps\lighttest_a_a5.bsp"

By using %~d1, %~p1 and %~n1 can we make a file that will compile the .map file dropped on it.

"C:\urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\q3map2.exe" -meta -fs_basepath "C:\urtmapping" -fs_game q3ut4 "%~d1%~p1%~n1.map"
"C:\urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\q3map2.exe" -vis -fs_basepath "C:\urtmapping" "%~d1%~p1%~n1.bsp"
"C:\urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\q3map2.exe" -light -fs_basepath "C:\urtmapping" "%~d1%~p1%~n1.bsp"

===Example X===
Instead of writing the path to the image you want to open with mspaint you can simply put %1 instead. When you drag and drop a image on the batch file it will open the image with mspaint.

"mspaint %1"""

==Linux - Shell scripting==

Linux users can achieve something similar with shell scripting

#! /bin/bash
Q3MAP2='/path/2/q3map2'
BASEPATH='/path/2/.q3a'

${Q3MAP2} -fs_basepath ${BASEPATH} -fs_game q3ut4 -meta ${1}
${Q3MAP2} -fs_basepath ${BASEPATH} -fs_game q3ut4 -vis ${1%%.map}.bsp
${Q3MAP2} -fs_basepath ${BASEPATH} -fs_game q3ut4 -light ${1%%.map}.bsp

The far more advanced (and probably easier way) is to use GNU/Make and [[Compiling:Makefiles|Makefiles]].

Lighting:Light Style

2012-01-30T20:02:32Z

DagF:

{{WIP}}
==Light Style==

===About===

Adding light style to a light entities let's the mapper create the effect of dynamic lighting.
True dynamic lightning in Urban Terror does not exists. The effect is created simply by the engine using a lightimage and shaders.

One thing to think of before using Light Style is that the engine have to redraw the scene with the lights. This is affecting the fps of the level. So use it with care.

===How to. Step by Step===

1. Start by selecting any brush that is a part of your worldspawn.

2. Add the following key "_style1alphaGen" with the value "wave sin .5 .3 .25 1.5" (without the ")

3. Add the following key "_style1rgbGen" with the value "wave noise 0.5 1 0 5.37" (without the ")

4. Edit the values to the value you want

5. Add a light and enter the key "style" with the value "1" (without the ").

===Adding lightstyle in an shader===
You can also add the lighstyle to a shader insted of to a light.
To do this simply add q3map_lightStyle 1 in the shader.
If you use more than one lightsyle you just replace the 1 with the ligthstyle you want.

===Multiple Light Styles===

It is possible to add more light styles. To do that enter "_styleXalphaGen" and "_styleXrgbGen" with another number instead of the X.

===Sample Map===
There is a test map here: http://www.robotrenegade.com/q3map2/downloads/samples/maps/map-slstyle.zip

The q3map2 will generate lightmaps and a shaderfile for the light style. The lightstyle shader that is generated should not be changed.

{{Warning|Use the "Light Style Entity" with care. It is not the best way of doing this and should not be the first tested}}

===Light Style Entity===
In some cases adding lightstyle to the worldspawn does not work. If that happens you can create a [[Entities:Func#func_group|func_group]], adding the values to it instead of the worldspawn. Or you can add a entity with the values.

To make a entity make a new file in radiant/q3.game/baseq3/ called lightstyle.def.
Add the following lines to this file:

//Light_style

// * * * * * * * *

/*QUAKED Lightstyle (0.3 0.9 0.4)(-5 -5 -5) (5 5 5)

An false entity used for adding light styles to the map.

-------- KEYS --------
_style1alphaGen : This controls the behaviour of the light(eg. wave sin .5 .3 .25 1.5)

_style1rgbGen : This controls the colour of the light(e.g. wave noise 0.5 1 0 5.37)
*/

When you open radiant again there will be a new entity in the list called Lightstyle.
It will look like a small green box. The values in the comments are suggestions, so just enter the values you need instead.

Misfit Model 3D is an OpenGL-based 3D model editor that works with triangle-based models. It supports multi-level undo, skeletal animations, simple texturing, command-line batch processing, and a plugin system for adding new model and image filters. Complete online help is included. The primary design goal is to be easy to use.

Misfit Model 3D was written and tested on Linux (2.4 and 2.6 kernels) and has been compiled and tested on most major Linux distributions. It is also known to run on FreeBSD, Windows XP/2000, and Mac OS X (experimental).

Misfit saves in md3 format.

==Batch Files==

===About===

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batch_file Batch Files] are files with one or more command line. Batch files are often used to add surface sounds and bot's. But they can manage the same as a frontend.

==Commands==

===The %1 variable===

%1 can be broken down to %~d1, %~p1 and %~n1 (there are more, referring to file extension, date and so but we don't need them here.)

%~d1 -Is the drive to the batch file or the file you drop on the batch file.
Eg: "C:\"

%~p1 -Is the path to the batch file or the file you drop on the batch file.
Eg: " urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\"

%~n1 -Is the name to the batch file or the file you drop on the batch file.
Eg: " q3map2"

By using this can we easily modify our compile.bat we find in our mapping folder.
This is what my compile.bat looks like now:

===Example X===
Insted of writing the path to the image you want to open with mspaint you can simply put %1 insted. When you drag and drop a image on the batch file it will open the image with mspaint.

==Batch Files==

===About===

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batch_file Batch Files] are files with one or more command line. Batch files are often used to add surface sounds and bot's. But they can manage the same as a frontend.

==Commands==

===The %1 variable===
The %1 variable can be very usefull when making a batch file. Instead of a path to the file you want to work with you can simply use %1. This allowes you to work with the file that are droped on the batch file.

%1 refers to the file with it's drive, path, name and file extension.
Eg: "C:\urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\q3map2.exe"

%1 can be broken down to %~d1, %~p1 and %~n1 (there are more, referring to file extension, date and so but we don't need them here.)

%~d1 -Is the drive to the batch file or the file you drop on the batch file.
Eg: "C:\"

%~p1 -Is the path to the batch file or the file you drop on the batch file.
Eg: " urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\"

%~n1 -Is the name to the batch file or the file you drop on the batch file.
Eg: " q3map2"

By using this can we easily modify our compile.bat we find in our mapping folder.
This is what my compile.bat looks like now:

"C:\urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\q3map2.exe" -meta -fs_basepath "C:\urtmapping" -fs_game q3ut4 "C:\urtmapping\q3ut4\maps\lighttest_a_a5.map"

By using %~d1, %~p1 and %~n1 can we make a file that will compile the .map file dropped on it.

"C:\urtmapping\q3map_2.5.16_win32_x86\q3map2.exe" -meta -fs_basepath "C:\urtmapping" -fs_game q3ut4 "%~d1%~p1%~n1.map"

==Compiling==

===About===

There are 3 ways of compiling a map.

The first and simplest one is to use the "Build" function in radiant.
This is good for test compiling, but are limitided and does not allowe you to do a quick testrun of the map in the same opperation.

The other way is by using a q3map2 frontend. This could be q3map2 toolz or some other frontend. Thise frontends are much more open and allowes you to add all the swithes you need to the compile line.

The thirdth way of compiling is using scripts to run the compile. That means [[Compiling:Batch Files|Batch Files]](or .bat files) for windows.

Lighting:Light Style

2011-08-19T09:10:14Z

DagF:

{{WIP}}
==Light Style==

===About===

Adding light style to a light entities let's the mapper create the effect of dynamik lighting.
True dynamik lightning in Urban Terror does not exsist. The effect is created simply by the engin using a lightimage and shaders.

One thing to think of before using Light Style is that the engin have to redraw the scene with the lights. This is affecting the fps of the level. So use it with care.

===How to. Step by Step===

1. Start by selcting any brush that is a part of your worldspawn.

2. Add the folowing key "_style1alphaGen" with the value "wave sin .5 .3 .25 1.5" (without the ")

3. Add the folowing key "_style1rgbGen" with the value "wave noise 0.5 1 0 5.37" (without the ")

4. Edit the values to the value you want

5. Add a light and enter the key "style" with the value "1" (without the ").

===Multiple Light Styles===

It is possible to add more light styles. To do that enter "_styleXalphaGen" and "_styleXrgbGen" with another number instead of the X.

===Sample Map===
There is a test map here: http://www.robotrenegade.com/q3map2/downloads/samples/maps/map-slstyle.zip

The q3map2 will generate lightmaps and a shaderfile for the light style. The lightstyle shader that is generated should not be changed.

{{Warning|Use the "Light Style Enitie" with care. It is not the best way of doing this and should not be the first tested}}

===Light Style Enitie===
In some cases adding lightstyle to the worldspawn does not work. If that happends you can make a [[func_group]], adding the values to it instead of the worldspawn. Or you can add a enitie with the values.

To make a enitie make a new file in radiant/q3.game/baseq3/ called lightstyle.def.
Add the folowing lines to this file:

//Light_style

// * * * * * * * *

/*QUAKED Lightstyle (0.3 0.9 0.4)(-5 -5 -5) (5 5 5)

An false enitie used for adding light styles to the map.

-------- KEYS --------
_style1alphaGen : This controles the behavior of the light(eg. wave sin .5 .3 .25 1.5)

_style1rgbGen : This controles the color of the light(eg. wave noise 0.5 1 0 5.37)
*/

When you open radiant again there will be a new enitie in the list called Lightstyle.
It will look like a small green box. The values in the comments are suggestions, so just enter the walues you need instead.

In some cases adding lightstyle to the worldspawn does not work. If that happends you can make a [[func_group]], adding the values to it instead of the worldspawn. Or you can add a enitie with the values.

To make a enitie make a new file in radiant/q3.game/baseq3/ called lightstyle.def.
Add the folowing lines to this file:

//Light_style

// * * * * * * * *

/*QUAKED Lightstyle (0.3 0.9 0.4)(-5 -5 -5) (5 5 5)
An false enitie used for adding light styles to the map.
-------- KEYS --------
_style1alphaGen : This controles the behavior of the light(eg. wave sin .5 .3 .25 1.5)
_style1rgbGen : This controles the color of the light(eg. wave noise 0.5 1 0 5.37)
*/

When you open radiant again there will be a new enitie in the list called Lightstyle.
It will look like a small green box. The values in the comments are suggestions, so just enter the walues you need instead.

Lighting:Light Style

DagF: /* Light Style Enitie */

{{WIP}}
==Light Style==

===About===

Adding light style to a light entities let's the mapper create the effect of dynamik lighting.
True dynamik lightning in Urban Terror does not exsist. The effect is created simply by the engin using a lightimage and shaders.

One thing to think of before using Light Style is that the engin have to redraw the scene with the lights. This is affecting the fps of the level. So use it with care.

===How to. Step by Step===

1. Start by selcting any brush that is a part of your worldspawn.

2. Add the folowing key "_style1alphaGen" with the value "wave sin .5 .3 .25 1.5" (without the ")

3. Add the folowing key "_style1rgbGen" with the value "wave noise 0.5 1 0 5.37" (without the ")

4. Edit the values to the value you want

5. Add a light and enter the key "style" with the value "1" (without the ").

===Multiple Light Styles===

It is possible to add more light styles. To do that enter "_styleXalphaGen" and "_styleXrgbGen" with another number instead of the X.

===Sample Map===
There is a test map here: http://www.robotrenegade.com/q3map2/downloads/samples/maps/map-slstyle.zip

The q3map2 will generate lightmaps and a shaderfile for the light style. The lightstyle shader that is generated should not be changed.
