| {{jack|4}} (commonly {{jack|3|nt=0}}) is a map editor for games with a {{Quake|3.1|addtext=-style}} [[BSP]] architecture. {{jack|1}} is heavily based on {{hammer|4.1}}, improving upon the experience from {{hammer3|4.1|nt=5}} by adding many quality of life features inspired by those found in {{hammer4|4.1}}, {{q3r|4.1}}, and more.
| |
| supporting {{hl1|4.1}}, {{quake|4.1}}, {{quake2|4.1}}, and {{quake3|4.1}}, along with many other games and mods running on their engines, such as {{gunman|4.1}}, {{w|Hexen II}}, and {{w|Tremulous}}.
| |
| | |
| {{jack|1}} is available for free on its website. A paid version, with several bugfixes and some extra features, is also available on {{steamicon|3}}.
| |
| | |
| {{modernImportant|The map compilers which come with {{jack|1}} are forked from older versions of the various engines' compile tools and are not actively maintained. Additionally, the '''''paid version of {{jack|1}} does not include compile tools for {{gldsrc|2}} due to license conflicts'''''.
| |
| | |
| As {{jack|1}} exclusively uses Valve220 notation for exported [[MAP]] files (being the first editor to extend it for use with {{quake2|2}} and {{quake3|2}}), a supported compiler is required. The following up-to-date compilers are supported:
| |
| * {{gldsrc|4}} - [[VHLT|VHLT 3.4]] and forks
| |
| ** {{svencoop|4}} - [[SCHLT]]
| |
| * {{quake|4}} (and {{w|Hexen II}}) - [[ericw-tools]]
| |
| * {{quake2|4}} - see [[MAP (file format)#Quake II|Quake MAP (file format)]]
| |
| * {{idtech3|4}} - the version of Q3MAP2 included with {{nrc|4.1}}
