The q3map2 that is included in our beta 2.2 release is the one you should be compiling maps with for this game.

And here is wq3 q3map2 sources so that maybe someone will make working versions for Linux, Mac, FreeBSD, etc.

And I believe the original q3map2 source by ydnar can be found here now included with the GtkRadiant source. This is what El Vakond used to update the wq3 compiler for beta 2.2.

Yeah, for my part, I will try to compile the WQ3's q3map2 for FreeBSD.
I will see how it is done by when compiling the port/games/gtkradiant, so I can mimic that.

Hopefully, I manage to compile the WQ3's q3map2 for FreeBSD, thanks to ports/games/gtkradiant.
The portage consists of a Makefile (BSD and GNU compatible), many patch files, some scons python script, imported from GtkRadiant ...

If anyone else is interested, I could provide the source package, with all the necessary files to help building (e.g Makefile, patch files ...)
I guess SG will gladly include the additional files to their WQ3's q3map2 package

Hope this helps.

You bet! Thank you! I'm sure sig11 or Torhu (when he returns) will know what to do with the files. We'll figure out a way for you to give us your work if it's too big for email.

I second that !

Oh yes!

@hika: So, you found your way through the source-archive ? If you have any questions, let us know. Since the rest of Quake3 uses a cons based build system for *nix (cons is perl-pased, scons is python-based and similar) and since I'm also familar with FreeBSD I'm sure we can help

Cool to have supports from you, guys
About Q3map2, it originally uses scons python script, in GtkRadiant source package.
So I grabbed them, and put my hands on it.

I can give you the small archive file I made, with all the necessary files for building.
Then, I'm sure it will be helpful to make Q3map2 compile on Linux and Mac.

Thanks hika !

Your version compiles almost out of the box on Linux. It would have compiled if I applied your freebsd patches ... In fact, all the patches can go into the general version anyways. Then it is supported on FreeBSD and Linux (MacOSX has to wait until I'm back).

A technical side note: there was one "stricmp" which I would replace with "Q_stricmp"

Let's see if I can make one archive for all: Windows, Linux and FreeBSD

Then it is supported on FreeBSD and Linux (MacOSX has to wait until I'm back).

If I have the time, I can try to make it compile on MacOSX as I can borrow my brother's.

I guess I know where it is ... say tools/quake3/q3map2/writebsp.c ?

Anyway, I'm glad I could help.
