n00b Radiant question

[Vile]

how do I select objects without creating a object......as in when I make a selection box it becomes a brush entity?

[Lil Killa]

To select the top-most brush in 2d or 3d view hold shift and click the brush or brushes.

 

To a select a brush entity or a brush behind other brushes you can hold alt and shift while clicking to slect different brushes. (or for the group it will select whole group)

 

Hope that helps..

[alexx860]

and last how do you add custom music to the map I know where to put the files and stuff but in the map itself what trigger or entity do I use for the music?

[Lil Killa]

go to the worldspawn entity and add a kay of music and a value of music/yourmap/yourmusic.mp3

[Vile]

ok got ya thats how it is done

 

ok not be dumb but I am just learning Raident, so questions keep comming

 

is there a light_environment entity for Raident? as there isnt in the normal list and if I make one as in class -> light_environment it acts like a normal light...........

[Nanaki]

yep just make sure that you put a music folder like this music/yourmapname/yourmapsong.wtvr in the pk3 so that it has a reference point

[Vile]

now what about the light_environment?

What might that be?

 

 

If you mean lights then right click and choose light from the list.

 

If you mean an ambient light than make a key og ambient in your worldspawn with a number value.

oh ok

 

light_environment is what acts like the "sun" in Half-Life. That or it acts as the normal light level thru the whole map.

 

probably not the last question, how do I add in a independent model like an land speeder to my map. Also in raident is there a way to change the max viewable distance.....(btw I am very good with WorldCraft for Half-Life, but this raident is much different than worldcraft, a lot is the same but the controlls for the editor is WAY different, so I am trying to understand it all so I can start pumping out some beasty maps)

final bump ^^

 

sorry to bump but my thread got pusshed to the second page in less than a day, wow!

[GothiX]

Ok, here goes.. Create a normal light, target it at an info_notnull, and add the key "_sun" with value "1" to the light. Tadaa!

[Vile]

I got that done, I was refering to Worldbuilder the ambient is what I needed. So how do I add in models like a land speeder?
