Was wondering why when I have my level in the standard .wmp format the geometry looks just like I textured it, but when I switch over and save the same level as .map the textures get all screwed up. Is this a bug or is Wed trying to fight the .map format? No matter what I try the textures wont stay lined up as I have in the .wmp format. Any advice on this would be great. Thx.

Just for curiosity: What are you using the .map format for?


God DID give us a manual on how to change this world...

maybe because the 3dgs WAD is not the same format as the quake/hl WAD, for which the map format was created if i remember correctly.

The Map format is from the mit 90s,
and Wed did some additional improvments/changes.

I rather wonder that the backward compatibility still works. (somehow)

You could also look up the saved map in a texteditor,
to see what was actually saved.
(using a single textured block-level as reference)


And dont use Wed to make maps for the old Quake,
Wed is not ment for this.

Actually I make the levels/geometry in 3ds max then export it via the max2gs plugin. Then from there I needed a way to get a .map file for torque. I have used gamestudio for sometime now and was just getting to learn torque for levels. I figured out what the problem is the .wmp format doesnt save the texture coordinates. So you have to save you .wmp file as a .map then in that level retexture everything then save as .map and it works for torque.
