Anyone know where to find any good information on quake 3 bsp trees?

I believe that the only ''good'' information you will find is in the source of the Q3-clone engines. They are called Aftershock, Golk, and Titan. I don''t have access to the URLs right now, but if you do a search with the names, you should find them. I think Aftershock was at http://www.planetquake.com/aftershock (Check out bsp.h and bsp.c, some good stuff there).

I code a q3-viewer myself and a really good doc was written by Keoka Proudfoot but I don´t have the link right now.If you go to OpenGl.Org and look into the q3-thread in the advanced section you´ll find the link.

HTH,XBTC!
I''m not sure, but I think Flipcode.com has a tutorial on Q3 BSPs. Or is it Q2?

Excuse my ignorance, but what are you guys meaning by BSP''s?

I''ll summarize. BSPs (Binary Space Partitions) is the technology for levels in games that use the Quake Engine. Actually, lots of engines use it nowadays. Go check a tutorial for more info.

OK, I was just wondering. I''m new to programming in general and am hanging out here because you guys are giving me insight to a lot of things. I currently program V.B. (pretty good if I say so, but no games) so all this C/C++ talk interests me as I''m learning them to program in BeOS. I plan on writing mainstream apps for Be when I get good enough, but games aren''t out of the question.
