This tutorial are written for the main purpose of remembering the steps to
convert maps to Quakeworld.


Step 1: Decompile the brushes of the Quake3 maps.	*********************

	If you're not familiar with Quake mapping you probaly don't know
	what a Brush is. It's the building stones of the map. The walls,
	floors and stuff. The 3D terrain.

	Currently I use 2 versions of the Q3Map decompiler.
	The Q3Map 2.5.80 to do the compiling and the Q3Map 2.5.16 to get
	a list of texture names, to be replaced later on.

	First you will need the Q3_Mapname.bsp file that you wish to convert
	The easiest way is to locate the the Q3Map dir.
	Place the .bsp file in the dir and make a .bat file with the
	following commands.

		q3map2.exe -convert -format map Q3_Mapname.bsp
		pause
	
	After the decompiling, you will have a Q3_Mapname.map file, that
	is the file you'll be working with from now on.

	When using the Q3Map 2.5.16 the decompiler will make a list of
	WARNING: Couldn't find image for shader textures/dir_name/texturename
	
	Save this list somewhere.

		dir_name/texturename is the important part

Step 2: Replacing textures.	*********************************************

	You will have to make some .wad files with all the Q3/QL textures
	in them. I'll not cover howto in here. But a good Batch Converting
	program to use is T2Q (texture2quake.exe) and because the file
	lenght of the image files can't be as long as in Quake3 you'll
	have to shorten them. I use Ant Renamer 2.1 to remove vocals and
	stuff. TexMex is the program to make the WAD files.

	The easiest(fastest) way I found for replacing textures is by
	using Worldcraft3.3 with the Quake adapter. You'll have to convert
	the WAD to HLWAD, the program has a converter for that in the
	/texture folder. And this is here the wad files goes, as well.

	Add the new HLWAD files to the to the WAD list
	
		TOOLS -> OPTIONS -> TEXTURES

	Now take the the texturename list from Step 1 and search and
	replace every single texture in the map. This does not mean that
	the textures are placed 100% correctly, it just means that 'most'
	brushes got the right texture, and you can save some time.

	One important thing when using this method is, that in worldcraft
	the / (slash) is \ (backslash). So when searching the textures here
	is an example.

		Search for: 
			
			base_light\wsupprt1_12

		Replace with:
			
			wspprt1_12

	For some reason with this method, the textures are rotated 1 degree
	or something like that, but since you'll have to 'shift' all the
	textures to fit, you just have to remember to rotate it as well.

Step 3: Editing the map.    *************************************************

	Q3 maps got a lot of effects and shaders, meaning that you'll have
	to use your best mapping skill to reproduce the maps missing brushes.

	You will also have to place all the Entities (items, weapons, light
 	etc.) in the map. 

	I personally use BSP Editor to do the rest of the work, but use your
	prefered mapping tool.
