Hi I use an engine called quake 2 evolved. It is a quake 2 engine with doom 3 features. It has normal mapping, gl shaders programs, mtr support, md3 models, per pixel lighting! and many other things! The problem is the map format! It is still quake 2's! I have tried numerous times to add q3 map support to it and have failed. I was hoping for help form someone with more knowlege then me!
What I would like to do is try and add a q3 bsp format to q2e! The hardest part of this task would be getting the new q3 bsp map to work with q2e's lighting system!What I was hoping for is a map format that holds geometry, entity, and texture info! lighting is done through an external text file! I would want the q3 map to work much like the old q2 map does in q2e!
here is the source code i use!

There is a quake 2 engine with ppl and normal mapping that had q3 map support called qfusion fx...this engine is hard to use though and does not have a singleplayer story mode ability! I thought though that looking at its code might help out a bit...you can find it here
