Hi,
I havs compiled 3 maps : e1m1, e1m2 and captasao with hmap2build20050621 and I obtain a result like this

What' happend to the textures, why they lost their size ?

Check if you have the texture wads in appropriate location.
Appropriate not from you map editor perspective, but from the compiler's perspective.
In other words check the "wad" key for Worldspawn and see if your texture wads really are where the compiler expects them to be.

Ok but where is the wad key ?

You can check it

-either in your map editor (whichever you use) - just select worldspawn entity and see what is assigned to the "wad" key

-or by opening the .map file in notepad (or any other text editor)
Somewhere in the beginning of the file there should be a line like this:

"wad" "bloodbath.wad"

or similar. Something like the line above means the compiler will look for the file called bloodbath.wad IN EXACTLY THE SAME DIRECTORY AS THE .map FILE IS IN.

Ok, if I understand, for example in captasao.map there are

Code: Select all

"wad" "bloodbath.wad;fake_transparencies.wad;feb2.wad"

so I need to have this 3 file on the directory where is captasao.map, but how I can get this .wad ? I see glx.wad on basetf.pk3 but nothing else.

Oh, so you don't have them at all. That explains your problems.
You need to download our Transfusion SDK - it's available via our page.

Then you either need to place those wad files in the folder where you have your .map files and hmap2, or you need to change the "wad" key so it points to the proper location of those three wads. The choice is yours.

And just out of curiosity - why do you want to recompile those maps if you haven't edited them in any way?

It's work ! Thanks.

And just out of curiosity - why do you want to recompile those maps if you haven't edited them in any way?

For two reasons : I wan't to try all the cvs version of transfusion and I often organise LAN party so I want give to my friends the better of this game.

I saw : there are lots of .45 clips on the new version of captasao but no tommy gun, can you fix it please ? I organise a lan wednesday and it's my favourite map.
