Worldcraft Sucks ?!

[mapper_50]

Hi all
I got this problem with this thing called a map editor :
The File "D:\Quake\quake\id1\quake1.wad" Is Not a Valid WAD3 File And Will Not Be Used.
?????

That version of Worldcraft, as well as Hammer i think, requires Half-Life .wad format because Hammer, let's face it, is a Half-Life editor.

The map format is also different.

You must convert your .wad files - you can probably use Wally to do that.

The instructions ... matter.

Quake Adapter for Worldcraft 3.3

The only things you need to know:

1. You will be using c:\program files\worldcraft as the installation folder. Sorry, non-negotiable = hardcoded.

2. Save any textures WADs (the file format Quake textures are stored in) to c:\program files\worldcraft\textures where they will be auto-converted to the format used by Worldcraft 3.3. <------ READ

3. Apparently Worldcraft doesn't like it if your Quake engine is on another drive than Worldcraft come compile time, so keep your Quake engine on the c:\ somewhere (thread reference). <------ READ

Problems happen.

It could even be possible he is literally making Half-Life maps with the map editor (either intentionally or unknowingly) and using an engine like DarkPlaces (which supports them).
