Custom Map Makers

I'd have to dig through the code to be sure, but I'll say yes.
Are you compiling with -patchmeta? If not, do so.

Also, if you're making terrain out of patch meshes, stop right now and use trisouping instead.

^ why not

Making textures is a massive pain and only a few people here can actually do it properly.
Also, someone would have to take the pictures (unless you're allowing photographs by other people, in which case you could just allow textures in general)

Might make a crappy quality livestream - will see about this

I'd be in for an allnighter in a week or so - pulling off a shooter in a week right now

happy happy!

That's technically not a conversion.

Compile to BSP *without* vis and light. Use -meta and -patchmeta.
It will complain about leaking, but it doesn't matter since you won't be compiling vis anyway. Then just convert the BSP to ASE. You can't convert MAP to anything.

Increase the transparency of your normal/bump maps. A lot.
