zzzzzzz995_plague-lava-SNG_animated_Talisa

[talisa]

the Small mod compilation mod itself doesnt include fog and rain. they are seperate add-ons

files required for rain and fog can be found at the following threads:

i sure ive seen them i look at a lot of your posts to find the best of the best! its relay frustrating me that i cant get the fog, rain and pretty water to work! this is the first time i have tryed to mod it normely i just play the maps i find on the quake injector but i raly want to get it all going like you have. i tryed the new hd pack and that just crashed. i found your monster collection and i got them to work i just cant get the spookie enviroment to work

can i just come over to your place and play your quake? ill bring my wife and she can bring all her pony's too did you ever check out her stuff?

i need to go to quake collage!

the Small mod compilation mod itself doesnt include fog and rain. they are seperate add-ons

Really ?
And I always thought that the .ent files are included in the "small mod compilation" download.
I guess I was wrong then...

[talisa]

@seven
oh my bad, i didnt know you included the ent files in the SMC rars

they still require unpacking though


either way... ignore what i said then, i didnt notice you also included ent files with the SMC

[JDSTONE]

I did get the fog to work kinda it just filled the whole screen so i could not see anything i got the VISpatched maps and put them in the pak file and the .ent files in a folder i made called maps in the id1 folder is that right?

[talisa]

eyup thats where they go.
make sure to also rename them accordingly, e1m1.ent , e1m2.ent , e1m3.ent and so on


EDIT
also, which darkplaces build are you using? this also plays a big role in if some things will work correctly or not.
perhaps the build which you use has a bug with the fog or such

.

also on the mlp stuff... i dun have a facebook. dun see the point of sites like that personally,
other then giving away private info for everyone in the world to read, and that thought doesnt really sound appealing to me

[JDSTONE]

its the new one i think darkplacesengine20121222

i dont have any of the lighting mods on yet i was gonna try that today and see if it helps...

what lighting mod would you recommend?

thanks for everyone's help to get me up to speed

[nahuel]

I suggest try this:
start darkplaces , singleplayer - new game :
toggle the console (with the "�" or "BACKQUOTE" key ) and paste this

fog 1 .3 .25 .2 1 20 2000 15 30

If you get the fog you are doing something wrong about runing the mod, and darkplaces works perfectly.

nahuel

i tryed that and still got the same blinding fog as before...

[talisa]

for lightning id suggest inkub0's rtlights
http://quakeone.com/forums/quake-mod...-rtlights.html

although you could instead try FCZ's light-pack too. perhaps you like that one more. i personally prefer inkub0's though cuz they're darker

for mission pack 1 id recommend romi's rtlights
http://icculus.org/twilight/darkplac...lights_soa.pk3


and for mission pack 2 inkub0's rtlights

also, about builds... try using this one and see if that helps: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?hunns9l3b4ib9a4
it mebbe doesnt have as high performance as the latest DP build, but im 1000% sure everything works perfectly fine in that build
since i use it myself too

nahuel

i tryed that and still got the same blinding fog as before...

are you using quothes??
i mean :

"fog" "1 0.2 .... "

or :

fog 1 0.2 ....

Do not use "quothes" in console!!
