After i saw many Coop Or Die members are mapping, i hope someone can help me with the next things:

1. ERROR: PF_setmodel null - when i am trying to load my map.
I was mapping a lot for different games, but thats the first time i met this error... Nothing actually wrong in the map itself... It has some items, some doors, and some monsters.

2. How can i create a skybox? Is there a special tool?

3. How can i make a monster spawn (not monster that spawns when triggered).

Thank you!

eh.. i don't know what causes it, but i have got a solution:
1)copy the map (hold SHIFT and left mouse button)
2)open an empty map
3)paste the old map in the empty map



no, it's just a texture xD (look on E1U1 for "sky")

also, do you have got "shader not found" on everywall?




it should continue spawning? (infinite times)

The problem was that i had an enity without a brush model. Dont really know why it spawned but i opened map.map file with notepad found it and removed it. You solution is also good, because you cant select enity without a brush...



No, there is no SHADER NOT FOUND in my textures. I tryed addint sky texts to my skybox but they are crappy and i still can shoot them or even walk on them.

Yes.

make a func_timer and give to it the following values:
wait 10
spawnflags 1 (start_on)
target spawninfatry

and a target_spawner with the following values:
targetname spawninfantry
target monster_infantry

note that the infantry will spawn with target_spawner's angle and position


for the rest let's talk on skype

thanks that enought.
Still need to create skybox.
I also have another question - how can i make glass or something you can watch throw?

Well i have one more question - why in gtkradiant all the texts are bigger than when you are playing it? Is there a way to fix it because its a bit hard to map when you cant exactly tell how it will look like...

them are not to me :/ about glass, you may use a func_explosive that has 10% opacity with mass 400 or something like that

How i can set this?

i don't know xD search on net :/ also, check this site out if you need help http://www.quake2.com/qworkshop/tutorials/tutorials.htm it is very good

Thank you. Still cant fix the lights *,..,*
